Off the back of a dominant wrestling and grappling performance en route to a decision shutout win over common-foe, Derrick Lewis in the main event of UFC Sao Paulo last night in his native, Brazil – surging contender, Jailton Almeida has offered to feature in a championship eliminator in his next fight, calling out former interim champion, Ciryl Gane for a clash on enemy soil in Paris.

Almeida, the current number nine ranked heavyweight contender, made his second Octagon walk in his native Brazil this year – remaining undefeated in the promotion, courtesy of a one-sided unanimous decision (50-44, 50-44, 50-45) victory against short-notice replacement and former title chaser, Lewis.

The victory came as Bahia native, Almeida native’s second in as many main event clashes, having previously taken home a one-sided first round rear-naked choke win against another common-opponent, Jairzinho Rozenstruik back in May in the main event of UFC Charlotte.

And announcing plans to sit Octagon-side next weekend in New York ahead of an interim heavyweight title fight between Sergei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall at UFC 295, Almeida suggested a number one contenders fight between himself and former interim gold holder Gane in France next.

“You know we worried; we knew he (Derrick Lewis) had a heavy hand,” Jailton Almeida told Michael Bisping during his Octagon interview after UFC Sao Paulo. “We had 15-20 days to come up with a strategy for this fight, and we were able to keep him down and avoid his right hand.”

“I was touched and I didn’t really feel it,” Jailton Almeida explained. “I’m going to call out a name here. I want Ciryl Gane. I’ll fight in Paris, we can do it in Salvador, wherever. I’m ready; let’s do it, Ciryl Gane.”

Most recently headlining the promotion’s sophomore appearance in his native Paris, former interim champion, Gane landed a hugely dominant win over Moldovan grappler, Sergei Spivak, landing a barrage of strikes on the challenger en route to a second round TKO win back in September.

Ciryl Gane believes Ex-UFC champion Francis Ngannou will defeat Tyson Fury: ‘Everything is possible’

The French heavyweight phenom Ciryl Gane is optimistic that his former training partner and opponent Francis Ngannou has what it takes to defeat Tyson Fury on the 28th of October.

The French heavyweight phenom Ciryl Gane is optimistic that his former training partner and opponent Francis Ngannou has what it takes to defeat Tyson Fury on the 28th of October.

The fight between Ngannou and Fury is rapidly approaching, and with that: we see Ngannou have a chance of being the first man to hold a victory over Fury in a professional boxing match. The power that Ngannou holds in his hands is just as powerful if not more so than that of a Deontay Wilder, and Gane is not underestimating that aspect of his former opponents’ game. That’s not to say that the only path to victory for Ngannou is a knockout or count-out, but honestly; nobody is really expecting the technicality of the two fighters’ game to be anywhere near the same level.

Ngannou could very well win on the judges’ scorecards, but such a thing would surely have to occur due to points won via knockdowns, people would assume. The true fact is, nobody really knows what will happen when Fury and Ngannou meet in the ring. The large majority are fully expecting Tyson Fury to waltz his way to the end zone, but Ciryl Gane is comfortable going against the grain.

Ciryl Gane calls for Francis Ngannou to defeat Tyson Fury

“On paper, I’m going to say Tyson Fury,” Ciryl Gane began, speaking to Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour (H/T MMA Fighting). “…But everybody knows the power of Francis, and everything is possible during the fight, so you never know.”

“…For this fight, I’m going to be behind Francis… to create the surprise,” Gane continued. “It’d be really crazy, and everything is possible. You see in (Floyd) Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor, (McGregor) did very well. He did very well.”

That fight between Mayweather and McGregor broke major ground between MMA and Boxing and paved the way for super fights just like Ngannou and Fury. However, this fight between ‘The Predator’ and ‘The Gypsy King’ might have been postponed for too long now. The talks about a potential fight between the two began occurring years before it was really solidified. Outside factors played a part in this, such as Ngannou being bound by the UFC and their stipulations regarding a super fight; but still. The fight between Ngannou and Fury is not as big compared to what many believe it could have been.

However, if the former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou could manage to come away with a victory over Fury, it would probably go down as one of the most insane moments of all time in the combat sports realm. The fight would go from being just another sideshow to the most legendary moment to occur in recent memory. It would pave the way for a rematch that would likely do outrageous numbers, but Ngannou would have to do the unthinkable and dethrone Tyson Fury first.

“You never know,” Ciryl Gane continued, speaking to Helwani. “I don’t know how much time he trained for this fight — I’m talking about Francis — but he can surprise the people, and it was his dream when he started. When he came to France, it was his dream to be a boxer and not an MMA fighter. So, maybe? We never know.”

“(Ngannou) is still dangerous, he has big power. But yeah, on paper, Tyson Fury (should win), but maybe we’re going to have a big surprise. We will see.”

Ciryl Gane reflects on $160,000 home invasion whilst fighting at UFC Paris: ‘He did a great job’

Former interim heavyweight champion, Ciryl Gane has claimed the robber who stole more than $160,000 worth of goods including a Rolex watch from his apartment while he competed at UFC Fight Night Paris earlier this month “did a great job” on his home.

Gane, a former interim heavyweight champion under the banner of the Dana White-led banner, headlined UFC Paris earlier this month in his native France, landing his second victory on home soil with a second round TKO win over Sergei Spivak in the pair’s main event clash.

However, whilst competing at the Accor Arena, Gane and his family were the victims of a home invasion – with his apartment vanalized and robbed of more than $160,000 worth of goods, including a Rolex watch and other items of jewellery.

Ciryl Gane claims the robber “did a great job” vandalizing his apartment during UFC Paris

Having filed a police report the following morning, Gane has since opened up on the traumatic event, claiming the person who broke into the apartment “did a great job” as far as planning is concerned

“It’s not only my country, I suppose you have this everywhere in the world, but yeah, in my country, unfortunately, when you are a little bit famous now – you see in MMA in France, everybody talks about that, and everybody can see how much I can win,” Ciryl Gane told MMA Fighting. “So yeah, he did a great job because he waited [until my] fight, the last fight. He waited the night and he went out [to my] home and he did some bullsh*t.”

“My wife saw that at first, because he did it around 8 p.m., and so she went back to the babysitter, she dropped the girls and she came back, and when she came back she found all of the [chaos] at the home,” Ciryl Gane explained. “But she keeps that [from me], and after, when we went to bed after the fight, she told me unfortunately, but she did really good because I saw nothing, I saw nothing about [it before my fight]. This can be really traumatising for the girls if they [saw it]. You get hurt sometimes, some stories about, It’s not fun, it’s really not fun. So, yes, my wife has some traumatising [sic], but she’s okay, and we’re going to fix that.”

Ciryl Gane shuts down UFC title eliminator against Tom Aspinall next: ‘This doesn’t make sense for me’

Former interim heavyweight champion, Ciryl Gane has shut down the idea of a potential title-eliminator opposite the surging Tom Aspinall next – pointing at the difference in the division rankings as a reason not to share the Octagon with the UFC contender next. Gane, who returned to the winner’s enclosure following a stunning first round […]

Gane, who returned to the winner’s enclosure following a stunning first round submission loss to Jon Jones at UFC 285 back in March, stopped common-foe, Sergei Spivak with a hugely one-sided second round TKO in the main event of UFC Paris at the beginning of the month.

As for Aspinall, the Atherton native has been sidelined since he took home a similarly dominant win over Polish veteran, Marcin Tybura back in July atop a UFC Fight Night London card – marking his return to the Octagon for the first time in a year since he suffered a debilitating knee injury in his return to home soil the year prior.

And attending Gane’s own homecoming at UFC Paris earlier this month, Aspinall claimed he would most definitely fight the Frenchman if a potential title-eliminator against number two ranked contender, Sergei Pavlovich eluded him.

Ciryl Gane voices disinterest in Tom Aspinall clash again

However, according to Gane, who landed the number one rank at heavyweight with the win – a matchup against Aspinall isn’t feasible in his mind at the moment.

“I know a lot of people talk about (Tom) Aspinall, but this doesn’t make sense for me,” Ciryl Gane told MMA Fighting during a recent interview. “Like every time, with my management – they did a really great job with all of my career… and now I just want to go to the belt.”

“(I’m the) number one contender, he’s number four,” Ciryl Gane explained. “It doesn’t make sense. I just want to go now – I did it already, it was a big risk against this wrestler. So, now I don’t want to have a risk – I want to take a big risk for a big deal, you see? And I’m gonna be here for a long time, so we’re gonna have time with Tom Aspinall, for sure it’s gonna come. So, no risk for the people, we’re gonna do this fight. But now, my fight is not this one – I just want the belt so, I’m gonna go to the belt.”

Responding to a call at 7:30 am local time, French police detailed as per the report how the perpetrators in question are believed to have forced their way into Gane’s apartment through the front door of the premises, and have stolen an estimated $160,000 in good, including a Rolex watch and other jewellery items.

Yet to speak publicly on the situation, Ciryl Gane managed to rebound to the winner’s enclosure on Saturday night in front of a raucous Accor Arena crowd, landing a second round TKO victory over the abov-mentioned, Spivak.

The win came as the former interim heavyweight champion’s first of the year, after he had dropped a dominant opening round guillotine choke submission loss against incumbent heavyweight best, Jon Jones in the pair’s vacant title fight back in March at UFC 295.

Off the back of the victory, Ciryl Gane, who was called out by Atherton native, Tom Aspinall, laid out his plans to land another heavyweight championship pursuit in the near future.

“I know he (Tom Aspinall) called out my name, but that’s perfectly normal in this position,” Ciryl Gane told at the UFC post-fight show after his win in Paris. “He wants to go up [in the rankings]. But, me too. You know what I mean? So, I did a mistake, it was my first real mistake unfortunately and the people were a little bit hard with me, it was a little bit painful. But tonight, I proved with all the pressure I have, I did very great and I proved it … and I want to go back to the belt, for sure.”

Ciryl Gane responds to Tom Aspinall’s call out following UFC Paris drubbing: ‘I want to go back to the belt’

Former interim heavyweight champion, Ciryl Gane has admitted that it’s perfectly normal for surging division challenger, Tom Aspinall to call for a fight with him following his victorious return at UFC Paris over the weekend, however, he insists he wants to make a return to the championship in the near future. Headlining the promotion’s second-ever […]

Headlining the promotion’s second-ever visit to the French capital, former interim heavyweight kingpin, Gane, the current number two ranked division challenger – took main event honors against common-foe, Sergei Spivak at the Accor Arena.

Attempting to bounce back to the winner’s enclosure following a one-sided guillotine choke submission loss to Jon Jones in the very first round of their UFC 285 headliner back in March in a vacant heavyweight title tilt, Gane made very short work of Moldovan foe, Spivak.

Forcing a second round stoppage at the Octagon fence, a calculated while aggressive Gane laid out brutal punishment to the body of Spivak, pinning him to a corner and unloading strikes as he attempted to cover up – forcing an eventual stoppage in the action.

And addressing a callout from Atherton native, Aspinall – who also called out number one ranked contender, Sergei Pavlovich – Gane insisted he was well-aware of the British fighter’s intention to clash with him next.

“This is a new era for the heavyweight division and you have to have some big movement,” Ciryl Gane explained. “We’re waiting for the big title fight with two GOATS (Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic), maybe they’re going to retire. So for me, the good way to go back [and see how everything plans out]. It was my mission tonight to shine, to prove I’m still here and I want to go back to the belt. So, we will see, we will see for the moment.” (Transcribed by MMA Fighting)
