Ciryl Gane revealed he was game to fight Tom Aspinall earlier this year. UFC interim heavyweight champion Aspinall (15-3 MMA, 8-1 UFC) claimed Gane turned him down for a title fight at UFC 304 in July. The Brit wound up facing Curtis Blaydes instead, stopping him by Round 1 TKO to retain his belt . Fernand Lopez confirmed Gane (12-2 MMA, 9-2 UFC) did indeed turn Aspinall down for UFC 304 , but only because he had already committed to filming a movie with Netflix – something the UFC was well aware of.
