Now it’s @ciryl_gane ‘s gane R2 #UFC270

This is a LOT of movement from Gane

They're calling for THE BUS DRIVER

Gane wisely initiating the takedown when Ngannou gets even remotely close through pressure along the fenceline.

Dudes… Gane gonna gas out Franny and KO his ass in the 4th/5th?

— ZombieProphet (@GIFsZP) January 23, 2022

A lot of casual fans are getting the Ciryl Gane five round experience for the first time.

FIrst takedown against Gane in his 8th UFC fight

— Kevin Iole (@KevinI) January 23, 2022

20-18 Ciryl Gane. This is his kind of fight. He's so methodical and rarely leaves himself open for anything in return.

Let's see if Ngannou can make some adjustments in Round 3#UFC270

— Damon Martin (@DamonMartin) January 23, 2022

YOOOO!!! HUGE takedown! #UFC270

— Aljamain Sterling (@funkmasterMMA) January 23, 2022

Ciryl is up. Francis did a good job but couldn't really get anything

— Kevin Iole (@KevinI) January 23, 2022

If this is the Apex of heavyweight fighting, I’m excited about it. Got some more records to break

Gane doesn't exactly look too fresh himself

Ngannou's durability doesn't get talked about enough.

— Luke Thomas (@lthomasnews) January 23, 2022

Francis Ngannou, grappler.

GO FOR THE SUB, FRANCIS #UFC270

— Christopher Reive (@ChrisReive) January 23, 2022

Haven’t seen a body slam in combat since Hulk Hogan-Yokozuna

#UFC270 As a Fernand Lopez fighter Ngannou couldn’t wrestle…. He just hit the uno reverse card

— Jim (@MMA_Jim) January 23, 2022

 

If Ciryl Gane loses this fight because of that failed heel hook attempt he's going to have some serious lasting questions about his fight IQ. High risk, low reward.

Francis' knee are seemingly already jacked up. Doubt he was going to tap to that ever. #UFC270

— Mike Bohn (@MikeBohnMMA) January 23, 2022

Boy, Gane gets credited for ordinarily having high fight IQ, but that decision to sit to the heel was an epic miscalculation.

— Luke Thomas (@lthomasnews) January 23, 2022

#andstill the champion @francis_ngannou great job by the champion. Who would have thought it would be wrestling and grappling that got him the victory. Congrats champ!

— Daniel Cormier (@dc_mma) January 23, 2022

I was at the gym three weeks ago when Francis blew out his knee I don’t know how this man show up and fight like this @francis_ngannou ?? congratulation @Eric_XCMMA @DeweyCooper @USMAN84kg wow

— Ali Abdelaziz (@AliAbdelaziz00) January 23, 2022

Imagine saying “Francis can’t win a decision over a highly nimble and skilled Gane,”
Then he goes out and wins a decision! SUPER impressive! The king is here to stay! #UFC270
