Tom Aspinall answered all the questions about his physical and mental state after a yearlong layoff due to injury when he blitzed through Marcin Tybura in the UFC Fight Night 224 main event.
After his knee blew up in a headlining bout with Curtis Blaydes in the same venue one year ago, Aspinall (13-3 MMA, 6-1 UFC) returned for a quick first-round TKO of Tybura (24-8 MMA, 11-7 UFC) at The O2 in London.
With the win, Aspinall resumed his rise as a heavyweight title contender and put himself in position for something big after some key fights in the weight class play out in the back half of the year.
