Cruises to win in London main event
Aspinall defeated Alexander Volkov via submission (straight armlock) at 3:45 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in London.
ANALYSIS
This is the victory that should propel Aspinall in the heavyweight division. Wins over the likes of Alan Baudot, Jake Collier, Andrei Arlovski, and Sergey Spivac are one thing, but blowing past a former Bellator Heavyweight Champion and the widely-respected Volkov is another thing entirely. Aspinall landed a handful of power shots on the feet before getting his wrestling game going. He picks his spots extremely well and doesn't seem to overextend himself inside the Octagon. Add in a solid ground game, and Aspinall has all the makings of a top heavyweight contender. The UFC is going to have no choice but to push the 28-year-old quickly. The top of the division lacks depth, and Aspinall has more than shown he is up for the challenge. In the meantime, Aspinall will take home a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus that was awarded to all fighters who earned finishes Saturday.

Still on London card
Aspinall will no longer fight Shamil Abdurakhimov, however, the heavyweight fighter is still on the London card for March 19, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport Nederland reports.
ANALYSIS
With Abdurakhimov now set to fight Sergei Pavlovich, Aspinall will be given a new opponent for the UFC London card. While there aren't many details as to why Aspinall's opponent was switched, it is a good sign that he's still on the London card. Expect the UFC to give Aspinall a new opponent in the coming weeks.

Facing Abdurakhimov in March
Aspinall (hand) will fight Shamil Abdurakhimov (head) in a heavyweight bout at UFC's March 19 event, Brett Okamoto of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS

Abdurakhimov entered the Octagon in September for the first time since 2019, but he was beat down by Chris Daukaus and lost via TKO (strikes), bringing his losing streak to two bouts.
