Although Francis Ngunnou was ready for the first battle to protect the belt, UFC decided to hold a temporary battle between Derrick Lewis and Ciryl Gane in August. As a result, Ciryl Gane defeated Derrick Lewis by winning TKO to get the Interim belt.
This has put the pressure on the heavy champion Francis Ngannou to advance to a unified match with Ciryl Gane. The uniform match between the nunnou and Gane will take place at the UFC 270 event early next year.
Francis nunnou and Ciryl Gane are the former teammates who have practiced together at Paris' MMA Factor. It seems that both know quite well as well as each other's play. That is why CIRIL GANE is very confident to defeat the old teammate to step out of the UFC 270 event as the king of heavy.
I have only been playing MMA for 3 years, you can imagine that I will win in a few days in Francis nunnou, I will be a heavy king. This is crazy but also wonderful. As you know, I am not interesting after every victory but I think about defeating Francis ngunnou that I feel very happy because this victory is very meaningful to me. Gane said.

Ciryl Gane is very confident to start in 2022 as an official champion, the king of heavy heavy dynamic players with Francis Ngannou that Gane has had the idea of his next battle – Gane intends to 'flesh' unbeaten fists for many consecutive years in Light Heavyweight – Jon Jones.
“Jon Jones really wanted to jump on this weight class, he wanted to prove that he could fight in this playground. A match against Jone Jones would be a great match for me. People say our style of play is quite similar so a match with this punch will be very interesting. I will 'flesh' Jon Jones next year.” Gane said.
Ciryl Gane currently holds a very beautiful 10-0 record in his professional MMA competition.
