Ciryl Gane barely broke a sweat in his first fight since getting stopped by current heavyweight champ Jon Jones in Gane’s return to his home city of Paris.
Gane dominated Serghei Spivac from the opening seconds of the UFC Paris main event on Saturday at Accor Arena. In a matchup that most believed was a classic striker vs. grappler contest, Gane easily thwarted the overwhelmed Spivac, which led to a second-round finish from the former interim heavyweight champion — much to the delight of the audience.
Check out how fellow UFC fighters reacted to the heavyweight main event of the card, along with other memorable bouts including former light heavyweight champion Volkan Oezdemir’s first UFC submission win, the weird ending of the William Gomis vs. Yanis Ghemmori fight, and more.
