Eddie Hearn says Tom Aspinall's UFC contract is a 'f----ing disgrace'

"I represent the UFC world heavyweight champion... His contract is a f--ing disgrace, a disgrace. And I cannot believe the money that he is on. When you look at the commercial revenue that his fight would generate against a Pereira or against a Gane in a rematch. Honestly, if I'm Tom Aspinall, I'm looking at that contract, I'll go, 'I don't think you should even f--ing bother me.' But he wants to come back... By the time you've paid your tax and paid your time, there's no f--ing point in even fighting."

"Aspinall is currently having a small dispute with the UFC, resulting from his first title defense against Ciryl Gane at UFC 320 last year. The highly-anticipated bout ended in a no contest after Gane simultaneously poked Aspinall in both eyes in the first round."

Eddie Hearn claims Tom Aspinall's UFC contract is inadequate, leaving him with little after taxes and expenses. Hearn expresses disbelief at the financial terms, stating that Aspinall's potential earnings from fights against top contenders are significant. Despite the contract issues, Aspinall is eager to return to the octagon. The heavyweight champion is currently involved in a dispute with the UFC following a controversial no contest in his last fight, which has added tension to his relationship with UFC president Dana White.
