Ciryl Gane and Alexander Volkov are just a few hours away from their heavyweight contender fight in the UFC Vegas 30 heavyweight main event, taking place today (Sat., June 26, 2021) on ESPN+ from inside APEX facility in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The winner is expected to join a very short list of eligible title challengers.

Gane (8-0) has remained perfect though eight fights in his pro MMA career, five of which came under the UFC banner. But he’s yet to face a striker as dangerous as Volkov (33-8), who’s coming off a pair of back-to-back knockout wins over two former champions.
