UFC Fight Tonight Ciryl Gane and Tai Tuivasa to collide with title aspirations on the line

The spotlight will be on Ciryl Gane and Tai Tuivasa, two heavyweights with title aspirations on their minds. Gane, 32, saw his 10-fight win streak come to a halt earlier this year when he suffered a narrow decision loss to reigning heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou. The former interim champion will look to regain his momentum and stake another claim to the title when he takes center stage at UFC Paris in front of his home fans. Gane is the most accurate striker in his division and is viewed as a bad stylistic matchup for the Aussie fighter. The Frenchman is expected to utilize his Muay Thai skills to neutralize his opponent's power punches and low kicks. A convincing performance from Gane could instantly elevate him back into title contention.
