Agreed. I’m not a fan of Cyril gane. But he definitely has championship level mma striking.People are only able to still list Gane as a legit contender because of his wise decision to openly avoid guys who can wrestle, unless it's for a title.
He is. He’s fairly unskilled but makes up for it with a good chin and surprising speed. Hes capable of beating numerous top heavyweights.Yeah Tuivasa is such a threat
1. UFC did not cheap out on Francis. It was reported that he was offered one of the largest contracts in UFC history. He walked away because he wanted to box. Things have worked out well for him. Looks unlikely that he'll ever actually compete in PFL at this point.
2. In what way is Jon Jones disputed as UFC HW champ? Also he hasn't refused to unify the belts. He's currently injured and Aspinal didn't become interim until after he was injured. So that's an asinine statement.
Otherwise, good post!
Might win a few unexpected fights but he will absolutely never be champ or closeHe is. He’s fairly unskilled but makes up for it with a good chin and surprising speed. Hes capable of beating numerous top heavyweights.
all right fair enough, tuivasa highly unlikely to win the title.Might win a few unexpected fights but he will absolutely never be champ or close
Francis, Jones, Stipe, Aspinal, Gane, Almeida, Blaydes, Pavlovich and Volkov all trash him. So no, he's not anywhere near the upper echelon.
His best 3 wins are Lewis, Sakai and Greg Hardy, and he's 0-3 in his last fights when he got a step up. That tells you everything.
Some bad takes on sherdog are defendable, but this one isnt
STFU dana. You bitch ass cheaped out. "It was reported..." reported by who? Danas lying bitch ass? LMAO1. UFC did not cheap out on Francis.

Come on now. Everyone knows Jon Jones is ducking Aspinall. Yes he's currently injured but when he's back he's going to fight Stipe then retire. Jones has openly admitted that Aspinall is a risky fight that doesn't do much for his legacy.1. UFC did not cheap out on Francis.

Im not trying to be elitist haha, I just think the HW division has gotten a bit deeper in the last year and Tuivasa's sprawl n brawl doesnt cut it anymoreall right fair enough, tuivasa highly unlikely to win the title.
But no need to be so elitist about it. He lost 3 fights to top ufc heavyweights.
Overall though yer right he’s a fairly poor example of good ufc heavyweight fighter
