On the evening of Saturday, September 2, 2023, at the Accor Arena, the heavyweight bout between Ciryl Gane and Sergey Spivak will serve as the main event of a UFC event in Paris.
After losing title fights against Francis Ngannou (January 2022) and Jon Jones (March 2023) in the previous 19 months, Gane (11-2) is seeking a third chance at the undisputed UFC heavyweight crown.
