Tom Aspinall holds undisputed UFC heavyweight champion status after Jon Jones retired in 2025, yet remains sidelined nearly a year after an eye-poke no-contest against Ciryl Gane at UFC 321. Gane captured the interim title with a second-round TKO of Alex Pereira in June 2026, positioning the Frenchman as the division’s most active top threat while Aspinall recovers from surgery. Trader consensus reflects Aspinall’s superior record and finishing ability against the interim champion’s momentum and availability for a late-2026 unification bout. Emerging prospects such as Josh Hokit add depth but lack the established pedigree or recent high-level wins to shift implied probabilities meaningfully before year-end.
