Tom Aspinall says he wants a quick turnaround after facing Ciryl Gane at UFC 321, but what real options are there for him at heavyweight? Then, Joe Rogan calls Francis Ngannou the scariest heavyweight champion ever, and Max Kellerman takes heat for his comments on where Terence Crawford fits in the all-time ranks. Plus, the matchup that actually makes sense for The White House main card.

Later, who should step in against Charles Oliveira at UFC Rio now that Rafael Fiziev is out? Also, I’ve said nobody wanted the Magomed Ankalaev vs. Alex Pereira rematch, but I’ll explain why the result could carry major consequences for the UFC. And finally, does Ronda Rousey posting training videos really mean she’s any closer to a return?
