      @Paper flag Winner Volkov and Gane are the two best heavyweights in terms of skill. But Francis lost to Lewis, therefore he should avenge that loss before he takes on Gane or Volkov.
      I think either of them would beat him.

    One of the most impressive things ciryl gane did was in the 2nd round I think when he put his head down and went to push volkov instead of pushing right away he grabbed his hand and held it so volkov couldn’t land the uppercut. That showed that he knows his own weaknesses thst the opponent could exploit and didn’t let him do it. Beautiful performance he’s probsbly my favorite heavyweight.

    Volkov was standing frozen for a lot of the fight. I was hoping the back tattoo would pull through for him. Unfortunately, it didn’t go that way.

Although Ngannou's TD and wrestling has improved a lot it is not good enough to counter Stipe's wrestling. Stipe made a huge mistake coming in 15lbs lighter than the first fight cuz this time francis was 15lbs heavier than last time. I still think Stipe will have a hard time beating Ngannou if they have a trilogy but there is a chance he might pull it off.

    I don’t think he hits as hard as some other HW’s… but honestly, he doesn’t need to. He’s pretty good at controlling range and distance, and he only rarely gets hit cleanly.
    But not loading up is what allows him to sneakily get strikes in and past guards… there isn’t any wind up or telegraph… that obviously comes at the expense of power and impact, but over time that can still wear anyone down.
    After tonight, I will say that I don’t think beats or lasts with Stipe, N’Gannou, and I think he’d fight to a losing decision against Jones.
    But he’s still very good, and he’s still getting better. I just think he eventually gets caught against one of the larger punchers…

      The reason he doesn't hit as hard as some other is because he isn't anchored to the ground and he hasn't still be pushed into the red zone. But be sure that with his overall strength and stamina he could very well put anyone to sleep. Another reason is because his high fight IQ and prudence, he doesn't want to break his hand stupidly.
      And many people already said he'd lose against punchers like Rozenstruik or Volkov. And you can see the result.

      Gane has pretty subpar power for a heavyweight. Probably partly by design to accomodate his clean crisp striking. But yeah most heavyweights can ko people with one shot while gane doesn’t do that

      Not mentionned that Volkov has always a very solid chin. Only Lewis with One conter sat down punch could sleep him. With Gane he was even bigger and could see and brace with every punch, even the overhand in the sequence displayed by Weasel. He might not be a super powerpuncher, but he deals enough power and violence to froze all his opponents after half round so…

    Cyril Gane is what we really think Jon Jones would be at heavyweight. Unorthodox, great striking with his hand and kick, great wrestling, keeping the distance.

      Gane is elite and technical all throughout his long career in mma the way he shined tonight i cant see anyone beating him in his final moments on this plane we live on. unreal performance for Gane and many more technical wins to come

      @@STOMPED Yeah agree. I believe he's a big threat for Francis. Gane's footwork and counter would be a serious problem for Francis.

    IDK why, but Gane gives me shades of Robert Whittaker. Light on his feet, good jab, lots of feints, good variety of kicks, outclasses his opponents. Except it's in the body of a massive heavyweight.

      He (Ciryl Gane) recognise the powerful potential of Ngannou.

    I don't see Gane winning against Ngannou, but it surprised me to see Gane seems not afraid of Ngannou, and they've trained together under the same head coach. So possibly Gane knows things we don't.
