Khabib predicts the winner of Ngannou-Gan

Dmitriy Kel Aug. 23, 2021, 6 p.m.

Former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov considers Ciryl Gane the strongest heavyweight of our time. The Russian predicts the Frenchman to defeat Francis Ngannou.

"I think the best heavyweight right now is Ciryl Gane. But the UFC owners are more interested in Ngannou because he knocks everybody out. I think Gane will win this fight. Of course I was worried [about Volkov], but it was obvious that Gane's class is somewhere a step higher," Khabib said on the EFC media day.

UFC head Dana White previously confirmed that Gane will be Ngannou's next opponent, but the fight has yet to be officially confirmed.
