Ciryl Gane will look to get back in the win column against Tai Tuivasa

Ciryl Gane lost his first fight as a professional in his last contest against Francis Ngannou. Despite the defeat, the Frenchman remains one of the most formidable fighters on the entire UFC roster. He brings flair to the octagon with his stunning movement and accurate striking. Gane's fighting style inside the octagon is unique, especially for the heavyweight division. He will have a tough opponent to deal with in his next fight as he takes on knockout artist Tai Tuivasa. 'Bam Bam' is coming off a knockout win against Derrick Lewis. The winner of their bout at UFC Paris could see themselves in a title fight in the near future. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
