Although it is not in the UFC Apex, this is still a UFC Fight Night and not a PPV event. Therefore, there is no public press conference. The fighters did, however, talk to the media today. Gane said he was not looking at his previous fights while Spivac confirmed he has trained really hard and has not overlooked Gane.
Other main card fighters also answered questions from the media. Former strawweight world champion Rose Namajunas addressed her move up in weight classes and the difficult challenge of her opponent. Brazilian lightweight Thiago Moises also gave his thoughts on his upcoming bout.
This was the only media duty for the fighters. And although there will be no ceremonial weigh-in, they still need to make weight. The UFC Paris weigh-ins will happen on Friday morning. Therefore, fighters will then have time to rehydrate before the fight.
Despite being a UFC Fight Night and not having ceremonial weigh-ins, fans will still have the option to attend the fight live. Those who want to watch the action in person can get their tickets from the official ticketing site.

UFC 296 Conor McGregor vs Michael Chandler Tickets- When Can The Sales Begin?
Although all indications suggest that McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) must first re-enter the USADA testing programme, which necessitates two clean tests spread over six months, before stepping into the cage, he still lists Dec. 16 as the target date for his next bout.
Since The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 31’s premiere broadcast, McGregor has been on-and-off about a fight with Michael Chandler. The fact that the show was on everyone’s mind at the beginning made it very heated, but as the weeks passed, the Irish superstar changed his mind (a few times), and most recently, he wanted to combat the new “BMF.”
The UFC’s president, Dana White, told fight fans earlier this week that McGregor will definitely face Chandler next.
That was confirmed by McGregor during the same interview.
