    Pereira is too static, too straight up. Gane is a more dynamic fighter.

    Poatan will find a hone for his trademark left hook, right hand or calf kick. Just a matter of time.

    Round 1 Gane 10-9
    Round 2 Gane wins by TKO

    Gane with a tap to the thigh then a kick to it. Gane leaps in with a one two. Alex walks into a counter he gets dropped. Gane leaps on him, starting hammering him. Alex gets up, backs to the cage. Gane is battering him with one twos, Alex is gone, the ref leaps in and waves it off.

    Ok, I can safely say Goofi Whitaker's aura mogs Pierra. Still Chama Gang, though.

    Pereira ate some monster punches. The flash knockdown from a right was what led to it all. Gane jumps on him and he never recovered.

    To be honest, when striking is concerned, Gane has bested everybody he's fought so far. Ngannou had to take him down. We didn't get to see it vs Jones because Jones immediately exploited his weakness.
