Which is what Gane will do.. outpoint him the whole fight. Control the distance , takedowns , clinch. Jab from the outside side , kicks. Everything.

You do you, both are undefeated and proven to have above average fight IQ. It all comes down to gameplan at that rate and I dunno what either man has planned for each other. Regardless, i’m laying down the chips on the more all-rounded one.

N'gannou knocked out Gane in sparring. I'll just put that out there.

Francis by KO/TKO within 3 IMO. One does not simply 'control the distance' against someone like N'gannou.

oh did he? The video of their sparring I saw was showing Gane playing with Frank Ngannou like he was a child.

How does the existence of that video mean he didn't KO'ed in another session? The video you've seen was released by Gane's team. Why would you expect it to do anything other than make him look good?

Take all your money and bet in on Gane. Please do.

Just know you're going to wind up in one of my memes lol

People just want Gane to win because of the fake narrative created by the UFC promotion machine that Ngannou is an evil person. Ngannou rounds 1-2 or Gane 3-5

@Rich Gane is a really great value bet. Liquidate everything you own and drop it on him IMO.

I was referring to your reply to my bet on Evolev. But yes, I think Gane wins.

If you were saying laying chips on the more well rounded fighter then wouldn’t you be talking about ilia? He’s a much better striker and while his wrestling isn’t as good as evloevs, he has the bjj thus making him more well rounded on the ground

Oh okay. Got you. Ilia is also a Black belt in JJ and has way better stand up. I don't think he will get wrestle humped as badly as everyone else.

Ngannou has 1 way of winning. KO. I mean for Christ sake , he lost a decision to Derick Lewis in probably the worst HW fight in history lol

@Sabbath trolling aside it's a 50/50 fight really. Either N'gannou by KO/TKO within 3 or Gane by dec. But people are drastically overestimating Gane's ability to do that because people like rich don't understand how MMA is scored. Even if Gane lands more, N'gannou will land the stuff that has impact. He basically just needs 1-2 shots to land every round that force Gane to either do a slight wobble or become tentative and he will take the rounds regardless of whether he's outlanded or not.

You'd have to be a special kind of ******** to put money on Gane at his current price. In absolutely no way does he have this fight in the bag.

I do not think knocking someone down in sparring is smart nor saying that in an interview neither, but I do not expect anything smart coming from his mouth so not surprised

Yes but everyone knows that was a totally different version of Ngannou. He was gunshy and had his confident destroyed after the stipe fight. He would probably ko Lewis if they fought again
