YouTube channel<\/a>, he said: \u201cI\u2019m just en route back from the eye hospital where today I\u2019ve just had a scan, and things are progressing (expletive) nicely, which I\u2019m very happy about.<\/p>\n“They\u2019re saying pretty soon, if things keep moving in the right direction, I will be cleared for contact. I am back in the gym, I am back training. No sparring just yet. But if things keep on going the way they\u2019re going, we are back.<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone keeps asking when I\u2019m going to fight. The obvious answer is that the other two guys, Alex and Ciryl, have to fight for the interim title. I\u2019m obviously going to fight the winner. The UFC have told me that I\u2019m going to fight the winner. First and foremost, I have to get my health right, which is on the right track,\u201d continued the champ.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo specific month (for returning). I\u2019m waiting to get clearance, which is going to be coming soon, they just told me. Any specific month depends on the UFC. Those other two are going to fight each other.”<\/p>\n
“Let them do their thing first, recover from that, and then when everybody\u2019s ready, we\u2019re going to do it,” added Aspinall.<\/p>\n
