UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall has signed a commercial and advisory deal with Eddie Hearn’s newly launched Matchroom Talent Agency. The 32-year-old from Salford is the first athlete on the agency’s books, and the announcement dropped on Thursday via social media and a press release from both parties.
Tom Aspinall and Eddie Hearn – The Deal
This is a representation deal, not a promotional one. Aspinall remains under contract with the UFC. Hearn and his team will handle Aspinall’s business inside and outside of the octagon, according to Ariel Helwani. The agency will support him with commercial, publishing, digital, broadcast, and legal services, while Aspinall continues working with his existing media and management team.
