Mick Maynard’s Shoes: What’s next for Tom Aspinall after UFC Fight Night 204 win?

Tom Aspinall put a bow on one of the most memorable events in recent memory Saturday when he submitted Alexander Volkov in the UFC Fight Night 204 headliner.

Aspinall (12-2 MMA, 5-0 UFC) became the first fighter in more than 11 years to force Volkov (34-10 MMA, 8-4 UFC) to tap. He finished the fight with a straight armbar in the first round of the headliner at The 02 in London, keeping a flawless record inside the octagon.

After the fight, Aspinall made it clear he wants a matchup with fellow streaking heavyweight Tai Tuivasa. Is that the matchup to make for him, though?

Watch the video above for thoughts and analysis on Aspinall’s future after UFC Fight Night 204.
