Fernand Lopez, Cyril Gana's trainer, has reacted to rumors that his charge is backing out of fights.
"What evidence is there that Cyril refuses to fight? Who says he didn't accept some kind of challenge? Cyril never said no to anyone. He couldn't fight. I have a screenshot of a message from the UFC, they sent it at the time of the movie, 'We know we gave you time to film, but can you leave this and fight?' But that's over the top. Netflix would have sued Cyril and extracted a lot of money from him for disrupting filming. There was only one offer - a fight with Pavlovic at UFC 300, but Sergey refused," said the specialist in a release on YouTube channel MMA Junkie.
