LAS VEGAS – Ciryl Gane isn’t happy with his victory at UFC 310 over Alexander Volkov, primarily due to an injury suffered early in the fight.
Gane (13-2 MMA, 10-2 UFC) won a controversial split decision over Volkov (38-11 MMA, 12-5 UFC) on the main card of UFC 310 at T-Mobile Arena. Despite picking up his second consecutive win since a title fight loss to Jon Jones, the former interim heavyweight champ was frustrated because he injured multiple toes on his left foot in the first round.
“My first teep,” Gane told reporters during a post-fight news conference about when the injury occurred. “… You see, this changes a lot of my style because I love to be on my feet and be fast, in and out, land my jab. So I was really focused on it.”
