This octagon is too small for these two #UFC256

Perfect way to start the card. Established veteran vs very physically imposing, undefeated, newcomer. #ufc256

Hard pass on that Gane kick to the groin. #UFC256

Juniors legs are lit up. Sooner or later he’s gonna have to go for it. #ufc256

Ganes kicks are slick! He moves very well and light on his feet for a heavyweight. Cool to see #UFC256

Gane baby Gane. #UFC256

I understand now why Gane was a -400 . JDS should start considering a new profession.

Wow. Those kicks are a problem for the heavyweights. Great performance #ufc256

Gane! What a G!!
— Israel Adesanya (@stylebender) December 13, 2020
Love JDS but he was turning away on the feet and it landed further back than expected. Can’t blame Gane. #UFC256
— Alan Jouban (@AlanJouban) December 13, 2020
Beautiful elbow by Gane! It was legal IMO. Head was turning and still covered JDS’s ear and side of head as well. Gane is going to be a force in the Heavyweight division! #ufc256
