Rankings in MMA aren’t just numbers on a screen. They’re a hierarchy of violence. They are the currency of the Octagon. When the UFC updates its list, careers are born and legends are buried.

The heavyweight division is a different beast. It’s a place where one mistake doesn't just lose you a round: it can end a career. For Tom Aspinall, the man many call the true king of the big men, the last few months haven't been about knockouts or highlight reels. They’ve been about survival...

Jan Blachowicz has already secured his place in the Hall of Fame. He’s been a champion. He’s been a pioneer for Polish MMA. But for Jan, that’s not enough. He wants to go out on his terms. He wants to walk away knowing he’s still the baddest man on the planet...

The wait is over. The rumors are dead. The hype train has officially left the station and it’s barreling straight toward the T-Mobile Arena.
