Where To Watch: Ciryl Gane Vs. Tai Tuivasa Tonight
The UFC’s first ever Paris event is set.
Local Frenchman Ciryl Gane will face rising contender Tai Tuivasa on Saturday, September 3 at the Accor Arena.
Gane, the former interim heavyweight champion, has not fought since losing to UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou in January. Fans thought he had the potential to pull off the upset, but fell short in his unanimous decision loss.
Tuivasa, meanwhile, has seen much success in the octagon lately. Aside from being on a five-fight winning streak, Tuivasa has gone viral with his drinking-out-of-a-shoe gimmick.
A win could mean a step closer to a title shot.
