Tom Aspinall beats Sergei Pavlovich to become UFC interim heavyweight champion

British fighter Tom Aspinall needed little over a minute to become the UFC interim heavyweight champion, despite having just two weeks to get ready for his bout with Sergei Pavlovich.

The 30-year-old knocked out his Russian opponent in just 69 seconds with a punishing series of blows at UFC 295 at Madison Square Garden.

Aspinall, who becomes just the third Briton to become UFC world champion, only got the call-up for the fight on October 25th after defending champion Jon Jones suffered a serious injury and pulled out of his contest against Stipe Miocic.
