The second guy is an absolute unit. Took so much damage but refused to quit
it does raise a few concerns over his power. People like Ngannou and Lewis, or even Stipe could have easily finished the fight. Luckily though, Ciryl has a great style for his physical attributes.
@@darioam3329 It’s not necessarily a bad thing that he doesn’t lean into all of his shots as much as other Heavyweights because it means he doesn’t gas out and he’s never in a position to get countered. When Robert Whittaker does the same thing, all these people who call Gane “boring” start creaming themselves.
His corner should've throw in the towel
A unit??? The guy looks like he let himself go. He's just big.
Because he’s all show muscle no real punching power Lewis would of had that guy snoring.
When you start your MMA career as a champion, you really are a beast.
exactly tho, i was shocked in his first fight 1-0 and already champion 💀
kzhead.info/sun/aLOCesmSmHSuaq8/bejne.html
Foreals the black beast golden gloves champ
Cyril is a fucking hybrid between a tank and a jet
@mo poppe only 13 muay thai fights tho, that’s not very much
Its really weird how some of the baddest men walking the planet are usually some of the nicest men walking the planet
I think they have to be, because if they weren't, they'd probably scare away everyone
Because they have the right mix of intelligence and skill - they know they have nothing to prove to outside of the their fights so what’s the point in being an asshole
Because they don't have the Napoleon Syndrome like all the 5ft guys who try to compensate their small stature by acting tough.
N'golo Kante prime example
because they have nothing to fear
Dude this man is moving so fast for a heavyweight holy shit. Not to mention how his strikes looks so violent and precise I'm just in awe hahah
But Khabib would destroy him because Khabib is muslim. Alhamdullilah muslims are so pure!
@@vipr1142 Sarcasm level 💯
@@vipr1142 no he wouldnt. khabibs lightweight
@@faujihs8957 No, its true. Khabib would kill both of these guys, easily. Because he has the power from Allah. We muslims are Gods chosen people and we always win and never lose! We are pure!
@@vipr1142 Then why are you not winning over Israel?l😂 Why Middle East is controlled by America? Why Rohigyangs are being deported from Myanmar? Why mosques are being demolished by China?
I don’t think we’ve ever seen a heavyweight like this before, ngannou vs gane would be fantastic
Too bad derrick is gonna knockout gane with like 1 second left after losing the whole fight
@Holy Kafir derrick is weird though he picks the perfect shot to end the fight. Like he trained his uppercut for Curtis throughout his training camp then during the fight he did basically nothing and waited for him to shoot and when he did for the 2nd time he got smacked by that uppercut.
@Holy Kafir Derrick can eat so much normal attack and just give back 1 punch to end everything
Gane moves like a middleweight it’s insane
kzhead.info/sun/d5aAaJule3ygoKM/bejne.html😢😭sad
A rarity at heavyweight. Incredibly under appreciated.
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html . .
Definitely not for me, he has been my favourite heavy weight since the JDS fight, I love his methodical, technical style with his mixture of kicks and movement. Can’t wait for him to piece up Lewis this weekend.
I used to watch him in tko in Canada. People just been sleeping on him and most "fans" of MMA only follow the ufc.
@@caleb8414 Because I was definitely referring to you. Not.
yea, extremely technical,slick and athletic in , kinda like french mma anthony joshua
this is the best thing happen to French since ratatouille
lmao
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html . . 😚
We won the World Cup
We literally won the football word cup
Yes but ratatouille
No fake gangster attitude. Just a true fighting French brother.
but he didn't surrender?
@@biachslayer very funny dude
His boxing has improved so much since then
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html . .
I was gonna say that, in this video there are parts where he looks like that noob cousin that spams crosses in the playstation ahahah
@@LoWisR0511 Sure he looked like a noob while being undefeated in the cage while youre on ur chair in front of a pc, your opinion has so much value
After what I just watched... I am more confident than ever that Ngannou terminates him in less than 3. He aint dancing around Ngannou the way he did these guys or even the way he did Lewis. Also, his punches will literally tickle Francis and he will return with bombs; like a man playing with a lion, they don't play the same.
@@MsTriggaTre problem is, what if the bombs he throws dont Land, what if he starts to gas à little while not being able to manage the distance
A true martial artist in a division filled with overhand right spammers. Get that belt Ciryl.
fr lmao
Fax
What about Stipe, Aspinall, Blades...? I know what u mean, Heavyweight has always been this way tho
@@zoogie980 exactly Stipe has a stiff jab and good framing for a big guy. Overeem super versatile too. and Fedor had the best hands for hw like closest to an actual boxer
This comment didn’t age well
the second guy showed more heart than derik lewis did
more heart while getting pounded = more brain damage
Damn this dude is exceptionally good, I don’t think ufc has ever witness such a skillful dude with both size and agility…
It's kinda crazy to see a guy who's now so measured and technical fighting so aggressively for a knockout.
reason is the roids, is done with that so he is much more chilled and concentrated, testo makes agressiv af!
@@bodobagger38 wtf are you saying
@@bodobagger38 wtf are you saying
@@bodobagger38 i think he still take this shit
@@loco0106 very self explanatory again. Roids make you easily more aggressive.
I had actually prefer to see Gane vs Ngannou to Derek vs Ngannou
that's what they're going for next year I guess.
Yes I want that to be a series like DC and Stipe
@anthony Romero every fight is different
Do you mean you’d??
Derek Brunson?
1:38 The way he walked towards his opponent, reminded me of Jacaré against Weidman (if I remember correctly), just terrifying.
there's something fucked up about a guy being that comfortable and unhurried in a cage fight
@Mystic Editor For real
0:54 good on the ref for stopping the illegal elbow without breaking the action 👏
Jason herzog the goat
Very good ref
Herzog sees everything
it is not rly illegal, i mean he started the elbow right but the guy moved to hide so unless you're a moron you can understand this....
@@kurhooni5924 you have many friends
Gane is possibly the most well rounded HW I’ve ever seen. I really like Derrick Lewis but if he doesn’t land his touch of death Gane has way too many options to beat Black Beast.
Yeah and with Gane in and out elusive footwork I don’t see Lewis landing anything. Maybe a few block swings but he has to get close enough for even that to happen.
U know what well rounded means?? So Gane can grapple good strike.good? Wrestle good? U are not kidding right???
@DAVID where did u see him grapple and wrestle?? I Just see it twice.. if youd say he has striking skills k.o. power i woud aggree you. But well rounded.. sorry but example of well rounded is Kamaru. Gsp .
Stipe way more well rounded than Ganr
Ciryls' gear is on point, maybe Venum should contact him for some pointers
He is sponsored by Venum
@@kenwahldhlamini8102 fuck my bad, wonder why venums ufc gear sucks

I also 😍
that second guy was definitely pissing blood the next morning
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html .. .
so my man already a champion in his first pro mma debut DAMN💀💀💀
Lewis fans will witness what an undefeated well rounded fighter is capable of.
This aged so well
I think I'd like to see Gane vs Francis more
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html . .
You just might
The build for this fight and the fight itself would be absolutely insane
kzhead.info/sun/d5aAaJule3ygoKM/bejne.html😭
@timtrfny timtrfny we'll see
Dude started fighting at 24, MMA at 28 and he's 31..
He is skilled + heavy striking body. He has possibility of becoming future champ
Francis might have smth to say about that champ thing
kzhead.info/sun/d5aAaJule3ygoKM/bejne.html😢
A rarity to see a HW complete like this!
Ciryl Gane is the man! He’s the most complete HW in UFC, really hope he wins the interim belt Saturday night 🙌
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html . .
@@carloandreaguilar5916 he stunned JDS with a jab? That jab ultimately finished the fight. Half the reason why he isn’t flatlining guys is because he doesn’t swing for the bleachers, he is more of a down the barrel type striker.
@@carloandreaguilar5916 in this video he got a bit sloppy though aha.
@@carloandreaguilar5916 he’s not going to put it all out there and risk taking serious damage. That’s just not his game plan. Now if he actually does stun his opponent, only then does he tend to let the power shots go
"Gane doesn't have finishing power" More people need to see this
kzhead.info/sun/d5aAaJule3ygoKM/bejne.html😭
He doesn't. If you notice gane was a lot less technical in these fights and a lot more aggressive. In the ufc he does not fight like this or he would get knocked out and he's about to fight derrick lewis so that's definitely possible.
Yeah compared to other HW he really doesn't have power. His technique and cardio make up for it.
@@hikeex2494 because he doesn't lean in to his shots. Otherwise he would be open for a shot.
Cyril is the character with no bad stats.
THE DOUBLE FISTS 👀🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥
3:42 I see that ref has graduated from Mario Yamazaki's school of reffing.
Yeah bit of a late stoppage
Yes, one hundred percent
Love the way he wins and shows minimum emotions. Just a smile. All in a day's work. 💯
Lets be honest, we haven't seen this kind of killer instinct from him too much in the UFC, hes been impressive nonetheless, but this just shows hes got it and the competition in the UFC is at a higher caliber than other places
Lol someone doesn't need to be a fucking murderer to be great this guy is going places
@@Troupe_Master I literally said hes still been impressive in the UFC
@@agentcodybanx8909 yeah, but I think he can survive 5 rounds without being caught. We shall see coming weekend.
kzhead.info/sun/aLOCesmSmHSuaq8/bejne.html .
He survived 5 rounds picking Rozenstruik and Volkov apart.
I was there when he fought souza the energy was insane, the place was smoky and so hot, the ceiling was drippin water at some place like there was the presence of a god watching over Gane. and here he is at the TOP ..
You can see his development from these fights to his UFC FIGHTS he is definitely not going as crazy for knockout in the UFC which is smart cus he would get caught by better competitors but him and D.lewis great fight.
One thing for sure Gane at some time is having that belt.
1:18 Dana White be looking at this guy trying to wrap the belt around Gane's waist like: *PATHTEIC*
Has actually finished the second one with one broken toe and a lung injury
2:52 coach fernand lopez loosing his mind xD
🤣🤣🤣
Cyril is a phenom at heavyweight. Amazing footwork, flowing stance switch and masterful striking. 🔥💯
La ceinture arrive en France !! 🇨🇵
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html☺
🇫🇷💪🏻
Ciryl Gane the new champion for sure
We finally have a new era in the heavyweight division. Gane, aspinall, ngannou are the future
I agree, but Francis been in ufc for a while (5 years I think)
Бсьадатпдпдпдплп
Дмьалсмлимбмсо
Francis is a one trick pony Tom and Cyril are well rounded and are so skilled Francis is to reckless but tom needs to be ease in dont do what Darren till did he was rushed in far to quick now he the twitter champ
Damn! Ciryl Gane is like the heavyweight Version of Edson Barboza.
true that lol
2:42 Mazzagatti would be proud.
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html . . ☺
UFC really building up Gane, they’re def pushing him & he seems like the perfect champ too
He is the only big guy I've seen able to mimic Jon Jones. He will be the Champ if he can avoid Lewis and Francis's freak of nature strength.
kzhead.info/sun/d5aAaJule3ygoKM/bejne.html😢😭sad

@@illtoxic6 Jones vs Gane would be an epic match
For good reason I watched him 3 fights ago and he impressed me from the statt
It's crazy Ciryl came from the same gym and trained with Francis 👍💪
Great tactics. I hope we get to see this version of Gane vs Lewis. Where Gane sets up his jab, then picks apart Lewis with combos.
That's amazing how little damage he receives. When you think this guy was only playing basketball or footbasll until early 20's and turned into a champ in a few years
Cyril is very athletic & strong, he can withstand the ko punchers in the heavyweight division. My man, will be the new champ!
No
@@src7888 cant count out either guy
He's strong, but he's not explosive. That's why he can't knock someone out with one shot.
@@80ridho totally agree
@@80ridho Don't need to, when you have the gas tank to take the fight to a 5 round UD..and that's very rare thing in HW
damn this guys demeanor has been the same since day one.... im impressed....a true class act and good energy... he knows when to let lose in the cage and knows when to be nice
Imagine fighting for a belt in your first pro fight...
💪🏻🇫🇷
DOPE 🔥🔥🔥
And then defending it two times getting a call from the UFC with just a 3-0 Record. And only 6 fights in, he already defeated Top Contenders and is now on the way to become an undefeated HW Interim Champ. Plus this win would just be his 10th Fight. A saying is that we dont know a Fighters true nature or potential before his 10th Fight. Guess Gane is rewriting this Rule✌🏻
Il va être champion. Et franchement c'est un boss, très gentil, intelligent, féroce. Il représente la France 🇫🇷
1:37 Gane is a savage lol just casually walking towards his opponent
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html...
He knew at that point that the dude had nothing for him
he actually broke a toe, that’s why he was looking at his feet lol
Ciryl Gane has tremendous foot work for a big man.
Well he does come from a muay thai background so that’s one way to develop good footwork.
Dang that 2nd guy had crazy heart, took an absolute beating
Jones vs Gane gonna be a good title fight!🤭
So you’re saying gane beats francis?
@@dannyvzsz7682 he got the tools
I think he can beat Francis easy, but mma is mma, everything can happen
I would love that match, that’s probably why Jon is being pushed back. Dana would rather have Jon lose by decision than to get KOd by Ngannou. He’s still the longest lasting scapegoats Dana has rn for big money. Conor is off the rails again. Jon is taking his grand ol time
@@Nick_Tank i would pay 1000 dollars for that ppv
This guy will destroy Lewis !!!
That aged well sir
While in fight he looks modest
That was a great highlight reel!
Future GOAT and UFC Hall of Famer 😮
This guy is the MMA version of Anthony Joshua
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html . . ☺
His face even match with Anthony Joshua
1:01 That ref called the fight before the submission attempt... Dudes a fucking Genie
The fast thinking and fight IQ of Gane is just impressive
Vas-y Ciryl tu vas tout défoncer !!!💪💪💪
The UFC is pushing Gane hard and I'm totally fine with that
Fax he's great
He looked even sharper and more dynamic than he's now.

The man is phenomenal. No one can move like that in heavyweight. He is fast and supersmart and also entertaining af :)
This video really made me aware of how scary this guy is. He always seemed a bit too soft-spoken and kind hearted but his fights show a different side.
Crazy how much gane has changed I mean look at that last clip I’d give Lewis a chance Against that version of gane but the new version is like a god
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html .. ..

He has that heavy weight violence and gore but hes so technically sound at the same time. Love him
Reminds me of the debut of Johnny Bones! A killer ☠️☠️
It’s hard to predict a fight with Lewis. One good punch is all he needs so even though his opponent can be more technical, everything can change in an instant.
kzhead.info/sun/n5eqYcaKo4Krq2w/bejne.html...
ganes gotta chin on him bro just watch
@@ctrlfox2611 doesn't matter. That's like saying Francis couldn't knock out someone because of their chin.
Stipe has a good chin too. But heavyweights will be heavyweights... and everyone has a button. If a hammer hits that button, sleepy time
He has such a great jab, comes from nowhere like a rocket!
He should be called the smiling assasin always smiling and humble but very dangerous.Big fan
Rest in peace Derrick Lewis
Damn imagine Gane Beat the Breaks off Lewis like he did the Guy in Green Shorts Geezuz!!! When they made that man they forgot to put in "Quit".
I especially liked how the 3rd opponent blocked his punches with his face…
Idk if it’s just me but I wish they would do gold tape on the gloves of the champ in the ufc, maybe silver for the interim champ or title challengers

That's because we are used to ngannou 😂😂😂😂 I think has similar power to stipe
He’d knock you out tho
He does. He just doesn’t commit a lot. I think he has a high level of control on his power output. He understands when to put power behind his strikes and when to go for the finish. If he doesn’t see a finish - he won’t go for it. That’s what makes him so tricky and frustrating for other fighters He’s content to make the fight slow and “boring”
