Andy Aspinall, the father and trainer of UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall, explained why he advocates for his son's transition to boxing.

"Some journalists believe that my words about him needing to box affected him in the fight with Ciryl Gane at UFC 321. I've never heard such nonsense. I say a lot of things to people...

It's all about money. If your son was a fighter, wouldn't you want him to fight for a lot of money? It's obvious," Aspinall said in an interview with the YouTube channel Tom Aspinall Official.

Let us remind you that last weekend the fight between Aspinall and Ciryl Gane ended without a result announcement. The bout headlined UFC 322 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
