On the same card, Merab Dvalishvili will face Cory Sandhagen in search of his third bantamweight title defense.\n\nOn the other hand, the newly crowned heavyweight champion, Tom Aspinall, will seek to consolidate his position in an undisputed title defense against Ciryl Gane in the main event of UFC 321, on October 25 in Abu Dhabi.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a4.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0722%2Fr1522347_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n<em>Tom Aspinall will defend his UFC heavyweight championship against Ciryl Gane in the main event of UFC 321 in October.<\/em>\n\n\n<p>We analyze the first reactions to these title fights and explore the initial bets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Aspinall vs. Gane: Leaving Jones Behind<\/h2>\n\n\nIt&#8217;s time to focus on Aspinall and Gane, putting aside any distractions. Aspinall, a superstar-level talent, deserves all our attention. Gane is his opponent, and the focus should be on this stellar matchup.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Dvalishvili: Is a 2025 better than Pereira&#8217;s 2024?<\/h2>\n\n\nDvalishvili has shown impressive activity, comparable to moving up a category in terms of difficulty. His performance in 2025 could surpass Pereira&#8217;s in 2024.\n\nDvalishvili not only defeated Umar Nurmagomedov, but also recovered quickly for a rematch against Sean O&#8217;Malley. Now, he is preparing for his third title defense in ten months, showing remarkable determination.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Pereira vs. Ankalaev: A Must-See Rematch<\/h2>\n\n\nAlthough it&#8217;s not the matchup many were hoping for, the rematch between Pereira and Ankalaev promises to be exciting. Pereira seeks to redeem himself from his defeat, which adds an element of extra motivation.\n\nPereira&#8217;s preparation and performance in this rematch will be key, especially considering the medical difficulties he faced in his previous fight.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Initial Bets for the UFC 320\/321 Title Fights<\/h2>\n\n\n<strong>Magomed Ankalaev vs. Alex Pereira:<\/strong> Ankalaev won by decision in their first fight. Ankalaev is expected to have more success in striking, which will allow him to use wrestling if necessary. It is recommended to bet on Ankalaev if his odds are less than -200.\n\n<strong>Merab Dvalishvili vs. Cory Sandhagen:<\/strong> Dvalishvili will seek to continue his successful title run against Sandhagen, who is better at striking. Dvalishvili is expected to dominate with his pace and wrestling. It is recommended to bet on Dvalishvili by decision.\n\n<strong>Tom Aspinall vs. Ciryl Gane:<\/strong> Aspinall will defend his heavyweight belt against Gane. Standing up, it&#8217;s a balanced fight. The difference will be Aspinall&#8217;s grappling and jiu-jitsu. It is recommended to bet on Aspinall to win by submission.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UFC Announces Fall Fight Card with Three Title Fights The UFC has revealed its fall schedule, highlighting three exciting title fights that promise to keep fans on the edge of their seats.
