Ciryl Gane at UFC Raised his hand in his debut event in Paris, France last week, but he didn’t get some licks from Australian powerhouse Tai Tuivasa.
It can be said that he is the most skilled striker in the UFC heavyweight fist, and defeated the heavyweight by TKO in the third round after the connection. Hand Tuivasa threw a few punches after a lengthy attack on Tuivasa’s stomach – but it all happened after Gane himself slapped a flush and fell to the canvas, and admitted afterwards He was knocked down briefly before regaining his sanity.
Talking to Ariel Helwani at MMA Hour this week via MMA Fighting, Gane pays tribute
“It just feels like, because I didn’t see anything, talking about his fist, that’s why I fell, I think the ground woke me up, “Gane said. “When my butt hit the ground, I said, ‘Oh, what’s going on?’ I understood and reacted straight away, he grabbed me, so I continued to grab with his legs and stood up, and then I took a break , about three or four seconds, and then move away, it’s okay – but it’s true that he touched me.
“He’s really dangerous. You see sometimes you have someone you can’t explain, but he has something in his hand, like that. When that person touches you, you go down. That’s it. excellent. “
Gane didn’t go down the same path as Tuivasa’s five previous KO victims, which speaks to his resilience – he added, despite facing the likes of Francis Ngannou and Derrick Lewis in his career, But he never felt the raw power that Australian heavyweights have.
“No [I’ve never had before felt the power],” Guyon said. “When you look at the fist, it really doesn’t look hard, it’s powerful. But when he touches you, he really touches you. That’s why I say, I don’t know. I can’t explain it, but he has something in his hand and it’s the first time I’ve ever felt it. “
