So maybe he should be a smart fighter (when we fight). “He’s really well-rounded now, and I think it’s going to be more like that, because he knows I can manage the power. “I think Francis did a lot these last years, and he probably improved and he’s more intelligent and that’s really great,” Gane said. But though the two have spent some time training together, Gane dismissed the idea that their past experience would play a major role in the bout, saying that Ngannou has improved and that he believes the bout will be a more tactical affair.

Now, Gane will take Ngannou, who at one time was a teammate of Gane at the MMA Factory.

Gane only started MMA in 2018 after a successful Muay Thai career and the move has been a good one for “Bon Gamin.” After a 3-0 start to his career on the regional scene, Gane was signed to the UFC in 2019 where he quickly racked up seven wins in the organization, including claiming the interim title his last time out, with a third-round stoppage of Derrick Lewis. But if I win against Francis, I’m going to be happy. I don’t know why exactly, I’m not excited about that. Because after every fight, maybe you can see, I’m not really enjoying it when I win. And yes, after that, if I win, this is going to mean something for real for me. “I just started the sport, so imagine, tomorrow I’m going to win against Francis Ngannou, I’m going to be in the top, the baddest man in this world after just three years in MMA,” Gane told BT Sport. And with UFC 270 looming, the interim champion is feeling very good about his chances to become the undisputed Baddest Man on the Planet this early into his career. 2021 is almost at an end which means the heavyweight title fight between current champion Francis Ngannou and interim champion Ciryl Gane is just around the corner.
