The main event at UFC Vegas 30 featured a heavyweight clash between two of the best in the division. Promising talent Ciryl Gane took on a veteran in Alexander Volkov. ‘Bon Gamin’ is just five fights into his UFC career and has garnered a lot of attention with his performances.

Volkov, on the other hand, is a veteran of the sport with vast experience in both kickboxing and MMA. He is currently on a two-fight win streak and a win over a promising talent in ‘Bon Gamin’ would put him one step closer to a title shot.
