Aspinall refines cardio for Gane title defense

Each morning in Atherton, Tom Aspinall and his father-coach Andy map out the day’s work on a short drive to the gym, fine‑tuning a plan for UFC 321 and a first title defense against former interim champion Ciryl Gane. Britain’s first UFC heavyweight champion has overhauled camp to prioritize cardio—think 200 burpees, 300 sit‑ups, press‑up sets and 6,000 calories—to match Gane’s movement. With Andy’s eyes on every session and late‑night tape study, Aspinall—who owns the UFC’s shortest average fight time—still prefers quick finishes but vows to stay ready for long rounds and keep the division moving with regular fights.
