Ciryl Gane has denied he is suffering from a hand injury heading into his fight against Jon Jones.
Gane, 32, looks to spoil the fighting return of Jones this Saturday in Las Vegas when the pair meet for the UFC heavyweight title in Las Vegas. Gane will look to win the heavyweight belt on his second attempt having previously missed out on the chance to become champion when he was beaten by former training partner Ngannou last January.
'Bon Gamin' picked up an emphatic knockout win against Tai Tuivasa last September at the first UFC event hosted in France, but sustained a broken hand in the fight and underwent surgery later that year. Rumours of Gane breaking his hand again circulated online when a recent picture of the heavyweight showed swelling around his fast, but Gane downplayed the rumours as false.
