UFC heavyweight Ciryl Gane took to social media and sent a message to the UFC about headlining an event in France. ‘Bon Gamin’ defeated Derrick Lewis at UFC 265 and claimed the interim heavyweight championship after going 10-0 as a pro. In a short span of time, Gane has proved that he’s a legitimate force in the division and is someone who could reign supreme.
With his goal set to unify the title, Gane now awaits the verdict on fighting the undisputed king, Francis Ngannou next. ‘The Predator’ won the title from Stipe Miocic at UFC 260 and now he’s gearing up for his first title defense.
The clash between Ngannou and Gane is set to be one for the ages as both men are considered the future of the heavyweight division.
