Pavlovich will face Aspinall for the UFC interim heavyweight title on November 11 in New York at UFC 295.
“Thank you to the One who appreciates me so much.” Yes, he is a very dangerous opponent. He can fight and struggle. We take this one hundred percent seriously.
– Let’s imagine that on Saturday you win the interim title. It turns out that you are now in the same rank as Khabib Nurmagomedov, Oleg Taktarov and Islam Makhachev. Additionally, you are compared to Fedor Emelianenko. Do you think you are one of the best heavyweights in the UFC?
— For me, the most important thing is the belt. Let fans or experts compare the rest for themselves,” Pavlovich said at a press conference.
