The main event of the UFC Paris is the heavyweight bout between Ciryl Gane and Tai Tuivasa. These two guys are currently among the division’s elite, and they search for a chance to challenge the champion, Francis Ngannou. Though, Gane already did that and lost via unanimous decision, while on the other hand, Tuivasa is on a sharp rise and wants to secure his shot at the title by beating Gane. This will be the battle between two guys with completely different approaches and styles of fight, and we will see which one prevails.

Ciryl Gane vs Tai Tuivasa Preview

Ciryl Gane

The French fighter had his last fight against Ngannou, which was for the heavyweight title. The Predator defended his belt in the most unexpected way, moving the battle to the ground and outwrestling his opponent. This was, in fact, expected because Gane has a much better Muay Thai and he would control the rhythm and the pace when in stand-up.

Gane is one of the most composed guys in the division, and you won’t provoke him or force him to do something outside his game plan. We’ve seen that in the past, in the fights against Rozenstruik or Volkov. Hard leg kicks and jabs with whom he controls the distance are frequent in his arsenal, and regardless of the dull style of fight, Gane keeps on recording points. 

Until the loss to the Ngannou, he had 10 wins in a row, and a respectable biography. Gane holds triumphs over Tanner Boser, Junior Dos Santos, whom he KOd, Rozenstruik, Volkov, and Derrick Lewis. 

Tai Tuivasa

After losing three in a row, this charismatic 29-year-old Aussie defeated his next five opponents. Tuivasa was 9-0 once he suffered defeats to Junior dos Santos, Blagoy Ivanov and Sergey Spivak, yet after that went on a rampage that propelled him to No.3 in the division rankings.

His victims were Stefan Struve, Harry Hunsucker, Greg Hardy, Augusto Sakai, and Derrick Lewis. What is impressive in this situation is the fact that all these victories were via KO, three in the opening round. 

He made certain adjustments after the losses, bringing in new items in his arsenal, and adapting to the fact that he isn’t as athletic as other guys in the organization. That’s why he uses bursts to avoid the rival’s jabs and they smash them from inside the clinch.

Ciryl Gane vs. Tai Tuivasa Prediction

The French is the favorite, a massive one, and we believe he will win. The reason for that is his Muay Thai and fantastic kicking technique. Also, if he moves the fight down to the ground, Tuivasa doesn’t stand a chance. There is the matter of cardio, and we’ve seen in the past that Gane has excellent endurance, which can’t be said for Tuivasa.
