Description

UFC 321: Aspinall vs. Gane is an upcoming mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that will take place on October 25, 2025, at the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

The event will mark the promotion's 22nd visit to Abu Dhabi and first since UFC on ABC: Whittaker vs. de Ridder in July 2025.

A UFC Heavyweight Championship bout between current champion Tom Aspinall and former interim champion Ciryl Gane is scheduled to headline the event.

A UFC Women's Strawweight Championship bout for the vacant title between former Invicta FC Strawweight Champion Virna Jandiroba and Mackenzie Dern is expected to take place at the co-main event. Current two-time champion Zhang Weili will vacate her title in order to challenge for the UFC Women's Flyweight Championship. The pairing previously met at UFC 256 in December 2020 which Dern won by unanimous decision.

A bantamweight bout between former UFC Bantamweight Championship challenger Umar Nurmagomedov and Mario Bautista is scheduled to take place at this event. They were originally reported to be competing in the main event of UFC Fight Night: de Ridder vs. Allen one week prior but were moved to this event for unknown reasons.

Abdul-Kareem Al-Selwady and Matheus Camilo were expected to meet in a lightweight bout on the preliminary card, but Al-Selwady pulled out less than 48 hours before the event and the pairing was scrapped.
