[Mis à jour le 4 septembre 2022 à 13h24] Fantastic Ciryl Gane! The Frenchman won his MMA fight against Tai Tuisava as part of UFC Paris on Saturday September 3, 2022. This event, the first in France, kept all its promises. In front of 12,000 spectators, including the Minister of Sports, Amélie Oudéa-Castéra, the world number 1 heavyweight confirmed his favorite status to win his 11th victory in 12 fights. His evening opponent was, however, quite a competitor. The Australian Tai Tuisava, world No. 3, could count on his experience (15 wins and three losses on the clock). It wasn’t enough: Ciryl Gane knocked him out in the third round.
At the end of the fight, Ciryl Gane confided, at the microphone of RMC Sport, having fought injured: “My rib was fractured and displaced a little over three weeks ago … But it was impossible to cancel the fight!” This could explain the scenario of the fight, which was not a long calm river… Indeed, one minute 30 seconds from the end of the second round, he suffered a “knock down”. Put in difficulty, the French fighter did not give up to finally win, to the delight of the 12,000 spectators at Bercy, in Paris.
The fight between Ciryl Gane and Tai Tuisava was bitter! Here, pell-mell, are some images of the fight, broadcast by RMC Sport:
