Ciryl Gane acknowledges the punching power that Francis Ngannou possesses, but it is something he is prepared to deal with when they likely share the Octagon at UFC 270 early next year.
The fight between Gane and Ngannou is one of the most intriguing in the heavyweight division, as both men have specific qualities that pose a serious threat to one another. The ‘Predator’ brings power and refined wrestling ability, while ‘Bon Gamin’ boasts speed and unique footwork.
Gane already has experience with one of those qualities from Ngannou, his former sparring partner at the MMA Factory.
