Australian heavyweight UFC Tai Tuivasa shared his prediction for the upcoming title fight in his division between the champion Francis Ngannou and the owner of the time zone Cyril Gan.
“These guys are two freaks. Do you understand what I'm talking about. I think if Cyril plays a long game and can keep Francis at a distance, then he will win five rounds. But this is harder to do than it looks. If Ngannou hits him with one of his punches, then we all know what will happen. He can do it.
I think it's 50/50. Cyril is a great fighter, but I think Francis can get him. I'm not sure, but I choose Francis. However, Cyril Gun is a new breed of heavyweight,” Tuivasa said on the Inside Fighting podcast.
The Ngannou-Gan fight will headline the UFC 270 show, which will take place on the night of January 23 in Anaheim.
