FightIQ Verdict
"Josh Hokit holds the stylistic keys here, as his superior wrestling, output, and TD defense force Gane out of his preferred distance-management striking game. While Gane is the more seasoned veteran, Hokit's aggressive pace and ability to dictate the location of the fight turn this into a difficult night for the Frenchman."
Ciryl Gane’s TD defense (47%) is alarmingly porous for a top-tier heavyweight; casual observers overlook that Hokit doesn't just shoot for takedowns, he chains them at a rate of 3.73 per 15 minutes, which will exhaust Gane’s defensive reserves early.
