It may be annoying, but in the heavyweight division the promotion has very little choice.
"I mean, who else is going to fight? The division is in trouble,” Aspinall said on his YouTube channel. "There aren’t many big fights, right? So they have to do what they have to do. Of course I want to fight the winner. I’m waiting right now for the doctor to give me the green light and be ‘cleared’ to start training properly again. Once we can start training properly again, full contact in the gym, a fight date will be booked to fight the winner. As soon as the doctor clears, I will notify the UFC and consider booking the fight. Fight as soon as possible.”
