Mick Maynard’s Shoes: What’s next for Tom Aspinall, Ciryl Gane after UFC 321 no contest?

Tom Aspinall vs. Ciryl Gane ended in disappointment at UFC 321, but it did come with some upside.

After Aspinall (15-3 MMA, 8-1 UFC) had his vision impaired by an illegal eye poke from Gane (13-2 MMA, 10-2 UFC) in the first round of Saturday’s headliner in Abu Dhabi, the heavyweight title bout was ruled a no contest.
