UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall says the heavyweight division is not on fire from a name point of view.

It's been several years since the UFC heavyweight title has been in circulation.

Even the fighters whose names we know and remember, it feels like their appearances are sporadic and of unclear importance.

After Saturday , you have five more UFC events before you see another heavyweight fight.

Saturday ’s headliner is one of only two fights between ranked heavyweights anywhere on the calendar for 2025 .

By contrast, you can’t even throw a Modelo without hitting a featherweight or bantamweight fight on most cards.
