Why bet on Ciryl Gane
Gane has yet to taste defeat in professional MMA as the powerful Frenchman is coming off a stellar performance in defeating Alexander Volkov by unanimous decision in June
Why bet on Derrick Lewis
Lewis is on a four fight winning streak with a knockout victory over Curtis Blaydes in his last outing
Final betting analysis between Derrick Lewis vs Ciryl Gane
It may sound strange that Lewis is such a significant underdog despite being the higher ranked of the two fighters and winning over current champion Francis Ngannou But the crux of the matter is that Gane has never lost an MMA fight while Lewis has had to come from behind several times to put himself in this position In addition he has devastating power that has left many opponents wary of engaging including Ngannou And thats the only path to victory for The Black Beast As for Gane he has proven he can win in various ways with three knockouts three submissions and two decisions in his brief MMA career He is a crafty striker who is cautious and economical against heavy handed opponents as he proved against Alexander Volkov and Jairzinho Rozenstruik He could take a similar approach against Lewis but its tough to pinpoint his path to victory if you decide to bet on the French fighter
Gane is the legitimate favourite here because he is patient enough to pick Lewis apart but possesses enough power to finish the job before the judges decide who the victor is He could get a submission as Lewis could collapse due to late exhaustion and be ready for the takedown So we think Gane wins by T KO
