Ciryl Gane isn’t feeling any pressure going into his third crack at the undisputed UFC heavyweight championship.
After coming up short against Francis Ngannou and Jon Jones in years past, ‘Bon Gamin’ hopes the third time will be the charm when he challenges reigning titleholder Tom Aspinall this Saturday night at UFC 321 in Abu Dhabi.
Gane, 35, has been on the cusp of undisputed glory for quite some time, even capturing the division’s interim belt, handily defeating Derrick Lewis to claim the temporary title back in 2021.
