A takedown attempt from one of Francis Ngannou's sparring partners left the UFC champion with torn knee ligaments just weeks before UFC 270.
Ngannou wore knee sleeves for his injuries at UFC 270 last weekend and was forced to wrestle his way to victory against Ciryl Gane.
It marks the first time Ngannou has won by points in his MMA career, ditching his strategy of challenging Gane on the feet after losing the first two rounds of the bout.
