2 years agoIn front of a hometown crowd at the Accor Arena in Paris, Ciryl Gane put together a sensational striking display and much-improved takedown defense to defeat Sergey Spivak via second-round TKO in the UFC Fight Night 226 main event on Saturday. This was a much-needed win for Gane, as he suffered a humiliating defeat in his last fight against Jon Jones via guillotine-choke submission in the first round of a heavyweight title fight at UFC 285. In 8:44 of action, Gane landed 109 significant strikes compared to Spivak, who only landed 11. With the win, Gane improved his record to 12-2.

2 years agoWith a chance to add a vacant championship crown to a previously held interim title position, Ciryl Gane faced the opponent of a lifetime in Jon Jones on Saturday. The matchup did not go as planned at all for Gane, falling victim to a guillotine choke just 2:04 into the fight. Gane has now lost two of his last three contests and might find himself at the end of the heavyweight contenders line.

2 years agoWith another chance to claim the UFC heavyweight championship, Ciryl Gane (11-1) will battle GOAT contender Jon Jones for the division's vacant title on Saturday. Previously an interim title holder, Gane's only setback in the Octagon has come by way of decision loss to former champion Francis Ngannou. A dangerous striker, eight of his 11 career wins have come by way of finish, and he is always displaying dominant and controlled striking. DraftKings has Gane as the underdog, though, with a salary of $7,800. Throughout his UFC career (nine bouts), he is averaging 86.4 fantasy points per contest.
