Lewis Vs Gane Live - HQ (UFC 265) DAZN 7 Aug, 2021 *!streams-live!* Lewis vs Gane Live - HQ (UFC 265) DAZN 7 Aug, 2021 CLICK HERE TO WATCH LIVE 03sec ago！〜It's time to head back to Texas. UFC is going back to the Lone Star State on Saturday, Aug. 7 for UFC 265 with an interim heavyweight title bout on the marquee. Ciryl Gane and Houston native Derrick Lewis will meet in the main event for the interim strap and a likely shot at full champ Francis Ngannou next. UFC 265 info Date: Aug. 7 Location: Toyota Center -- Houston Start time: 10 p.m. ET (main card) | 8 p.m. ET (prelims) How to watch: ESPN+ PPV (main card) | ESPN 2 (prelims) UFC 265 is upon us. The promotion's latest PPV event has reached the Toyoa Center in Houston with a loaded up fight card featuring an interim heavyweight title clash in the main event. Hometown hero Derrick Lewis will look to move one step closer to a second title shot in three years when he takes on rising and undefeated contender Ciryl Gane. The pair headline a five-fight main card slated to begin at 10 p.m. ET. Gane has quickly ripped through the heavyweight division, going 6-0 in the Octagon since debuting with the UFC in August 2019. The former kickboxer now looks to win interim gold and lock up an opportunity to face heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou in the champ's next fight. Lewis is a heavy-handed fan favorite who debuted for the promotion in April 2014. The UFC's all-time leader in knockouts in the heavyweight division, Lewis is getting his second shot at a championship after losing a November 2018 bout to then-champion Daniel Cormier. Lewis is one of two men to have defeated Ngannou in the UFC. Gane has a perfectly symmetrical record at 9-0 with three wins in each variety of knockout, submission and decision. He's a perfect 6-0 in the Octagon and looking to move one step closer to reaching gold at such a young stage in his career after only beginning to train Muay Thai in 2014. Lewis, however, could advance to a second opportunity at the belt after coming up short against Daniel Cormier in 2018. He also owns a victory over Ngannou in the cage in a fight most fans would want to forget, but also probably couldn't wait to see again. While this may not be the strongest card UFC has ever put out, there's still plenty of intrigue filling out the undercard. This event was supposed to mark two-division champion Amanda Nunes making her return to the bantamweight division against Julianna Pena -- her first fight at 135 pounds since December 2019 -- but superstar contracted COVID-19 in the weeks leading up to the fight and was forced to withdraw. Instead, a pair of Brazilian strikers meet in the co-main event when Jose Aldo takes on Pedro Munhoz at bantamweight. Plus, a battle for welterweight contendership gets a featured slot on the PPV when Vicente Luque takes on Michael Chiesa. Below is the latest fight card expected to go down inside the Toyota Center with updated odds from Caesars Sportsbook. UFC 265 fight card, odds Ciryl Gane -340 vs. Derrick Lewis +270, interim heavyweight championship Jose Aldo -120 vs. Pedro Munhoz +100, bantamweight Vicente Luque -110 vs. Michael Chiesa -110, welterweight Tecia Torres -150 vs. Angela Hill +125, women's strawweight Casey Kenney -115 vs. Song Yadong -105, bantamweight Rafael Fiziev -310 vs. Bobby Green +250, lightweight Karolina Kowalkiewicz -135 vs. Jessica Penne +115, women's flyweight Alonzo Menifield -240 vs. Ed Herman +200, light heavyweight Manel Kape -200 vs. Ode Osbourne +170, flyweight Melissa Gatto -110 vs. Victoria Leonardo -110, women's flyweight Miles Johns -210 vs. Anderson Dos Santos +175, bantamweights Drako Rodriguez -115 vs. Vince Morales -105, bantamweight Johnny Munoz Jr. -310 vs. Jamey Simmons +250, bantamweight True to form regarding ignorance being bliss, unbeaten UFC heavyweight Cyril Gane is almost too green as a mixed martial arts fighter to even realize someone in his spot might normally be battling nerves entering Saturday's UFC 265 pay-per-view main event. Gane (9-0), a 31-year-old native of France, will bring just three years of professional experience -- and a truckload of promise as the betting favorite -- into his interim heavyweight title fight against Derrick Lewis (25-7, 1 NC) inside Houston's Toyota Center. Considering he left his hometown on the coast of western France in 2014 as a 24-year-old and moved to greater Paris to study business, what transpired over the next seven years make even Gane's involvement in such a huge fight this weekend seem like a Cinderella story. Gane, who focused on soccer and basketball in his youth yet had never trained or competed in martial arts, was forced to quit playing sports upon his arrival when he took a weekend job as a salesperson in a furniture store. A co-worker eventually asked him to stop by and train at a nearby Muay Thai gym and Gane took to it like a natural. Two years after Gane began competing professionally in Muay Thai, the furniture shop closed down. What it created was a crossroads point in which Gane decided to push all other aspects of his life aside and "go ahead and really, really, really train a lot." In 2018, following a 13-0 run in Muay Thai as a two-time national champion, Gane walked into the MMA Factory in Paris, the same gym in which his trainer, Fernand Lopez, had just helped guide current UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou to an unsuccessful try at then-champion Stipe Miocic's belt, and began his transition into a new sport. "When I started in Muay Thai, maybe after five months the coach put me in the ring and I did better each time I was challenged by better fighters," Gane said. "Since my [pro Muay Thai] debut, it has been like that. [This weekend], I am going to fight Derrick Lewis and that's fine with me. I have only been in this sport for three years and it's normal for me. "I don't know, exactly [why]. Maybe, [it's] because I just started a few years ago. I don't have any pressure and I just want to make a show for the fans. If I win, if I lose, I'm comfortable with that." While Gane acknowledges that the 36-year-old Lewis' devastating punching power makes him "my biggest test, maybe," he has no shortage of confidence he'll be victorious, even with being forced to fight in his opponent's backyard. Yet given Gane's rapid improvement with each fight since making his UFC debut at 3-0 in 2019, including back-to-back decision wins over Jairzinho Rozenstruik and Alexander Volkov, it's easy to understand why. "[This fight] looks a little bit like the one against Jairzinho," Gane said. "[Lewis] has a big knockout power and when this kind of guy touches you, you are going to go down. We did some technical training about protecting and I'm going to do everything well that I did in my fight [against Rozenstruik] and I'm going to move and manage distance. This is not magic." What is seemingly magical is the way Gane's muscular, 6-foot-5 frame dances around the Octagon compared to the behemoths he typically faces. Gane credits his background in team sports with developing his footwork, particularly in basketball where he claims to have been a quick and explosive dunker with a high vertical. With everything from speed, technique and five-round stamina at his disposal, the only thing Gane has seemed to lack is the consistency of fight-ending power, especially compared to his opponent Lewis, who recently moved into a first-place tie along with Vitor Belfort and Matt Brown for the most knockouts in UFC history with 12. .

  • 'Cowboy' Cerrone
    UFC® CAPS OFF EPIC YEAR WITH A LIGHTWEIGHT TITLE BOUT AS RAFAEL DOS ANJOS COLLIDES WITH DONALD ‘COWBOY’ CERRONE Las Vegas – It’ll be lights out in the Sunshine State when UFC® returns to Amway Center with a lightweight title bout as newly crowned champion Rafael Dos Anjos looks to defend his title for the first time when he meets No. 2 contender Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone in a highly-anticipated rematch on Saturday, Dec. 19. In the co-main event, former UFC heavyweight champion Junior Dos Santos clashes with former STRIKEFORCE® champion Alistair Overeem in a bout that could have major title implications in the wide open division. UFC FIGHT NIGHT®: DOS ANJOS vs. COWBOY 2 will be the second consecutive championship bout to air nationally on FOX and eighth overall. After putting on one of the best performances of his career against Anthony Pettis at UFC 185, Dos Anjos (24-7, fighting out of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) captured the 155-pound title, becoming the first Brazilian to hold the UFC lightweight championship. In addition to his impressive wins over former champion Benson Henderson and Nate Diaz, Dos Anjos also handed Cerrone his last loss back in 2013. The Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt will put his title on the line when he and his former foe meet again. Since dropping a decision loss to the champion, Cowboy (28-6, 1NC, fighting out of Albuquerque, N.M.) went on to dismantle the lightweight division by picking off top contenders in one of the most talent-rich divisions in the sport.
