Ciryl Gane remained undefeated Saturday with a third-round TKO win over Derrick Lewis to take the interim heavyweight championship in the main event of UFC 265 at the Toyota Center in Houston.
Gane's kickboxing, speed and movement turned out to be too much for Lewis, as it was a one-sided affair from the beginning.
The victory is just the latest step in Gane's rise to UFC stardom. The Frenchman is now 10-0, with seven of those wins coming under the UFC banner. With the interim title in his hands, it would appear an eventual date with Francis Ngannou is in the offing.
