Tom Aspinall beats Alexander Volkov in the first round

On 19th March 2022 (Saturday night), Aspinall turned in the best performance of his UFC career, scoring a first-round submission win over Alexander Volkov in the main event of UFC London. He showed off his speed and striking accuracy immediately as he pushed the pace on Volkov and then put him on the mat less than a minute into the fight. Aspinall bloodied his opponent while they were grounded, but Volkov was able to get back to his feet just before the midway point of the frame. He didn’t get to stay there long, as Aspinall scored a second takedown with under two minutes to go. And this time, the Atherton product closed the show, forcing a tap out due to a straight armlock at 3:45 of the first round. He is now targeting a showdown with number-three-ranked heavyweight Tai Tuivasa. “I’ve been telling you all week, I’m born for this.
