UFC 285: 5 ways Ciryl Gane might use to defeat Jon Jones in Las Vegas
Fighting at different weights
It is commonly known that Jones is making his debut in the heavyweight class, but we have seen fighters compete in other weight divisions before and lose; the most recent example of this was Alexander Volkanovski, who lost to Islam Makhachev. And since Jones hasn’t competed in this division before, it’s possible that he will lose as a result of lack of experience.
UFC 285: Jones vs Gane: 5 ways Ciryl Gane can beat Jon Jones in Las Vegas
Knockout
Jones is a dangerous fighter, as evidenced by the fact that he almost destroyed everyone he fought. When it comes to knocking out opponents, Gane is also one of the most proficient. In terms of his knockout percentage, he won 45% of his fights via KO.
Jone, on the other hand, came up short with 37% Ko victories. So there is a possibility that we may see him get yet another KO victory, which would upset many fans. And everyone is aware the heavyweights can deliver a strong knockout.
Same Physique
Even though Jon Jones will be fighting in the heavyweight division, he won’t have to worry about the fearsome knockout power that practically all 265’ers possess. The adversary that “Bones” must fear is being dismantled far away.
While facing opponents of the same stature as him, the former UFC champion typically struggles to win. And the Frenchman, who stands six feet five inches tall and has an 81-inch reach, more than matches Jones’ size and reach. So he can use it to his advantage.
Use of kicks
Ciryl Gane excels as a striker. But his kicks are what make his boxing effective. Given his bad reaction to being kicked, Jon Jones will probably be eager to stop the Frenchman from kicking.
Unfortunately, the former 205 lb. Jones methods are far from perfect so we can see him using kicks throughout the match which will indeed make him struggle to win against Gane.
