As interim UFC heavyweight champion, Ciryl Gane has done more than enough to shunt Derrick Lewis' name out of title contention for the near future.

The distance between them meant that Lewis never had the opportunity to get close enough to land a power shot. Gane outstruck 'The Black Beast' by 98 significant strikes to just 16.

Gane's win has paved the way for a unification fight against Francis Ngannou. Given his staggering form in 2021, many have suggested 'Bon Gamin' will dethrone 'The Predator' when they eventually meet inside the octagon.
