UFC 270 goes ahead this weekend with a major heavyweight contest to headline the show with a belt on the line.
Francis Ngannou is aiming to defend his UFC Heavyweight Championship title for the first time since stripping the belt from Stipe Miocic in March 2021.
It’s been a long absence for Ngannou, who has only fought twice since June 2019. He will need to be at his best to fend off the challenge from Ciryl Gane.
Gane boasts a 10-0 perfect professional record so far in his career, and won the interim UFC Heavyweight Championship in August 2021 amid Ngannou’s low-key last couple of years.
Champions versus interim champion fights always boast potential for massive drama and the match-up at UFC 270 appears to be no different.
