Gane is currently on a two-fight winning streak and is the No. 1 contender in the UFC's official heavyweight rankings. Aspinall, who was promoted from interim to undisputed champion when Jones' retirement was announced, is expected to work out his plans during International Fight Week. Gane believes he should be in the next title fight.

UFC President Dana White said Saturday that Jon Jones, the UFC heavyweight champ and former light heavyweight champion, has retired. Tom Aspinall, the former interim champ, is now the UFC's heavyweight champion, White said.

Aspinall's promotion Saturday makes him the undisputed UFC Heavyweight Champion, his first full title for the company.
