Jon Jones Wins by Submission Against Ciryl Gane at UFC 285



The highly anticipated main event of UFC 285 featured the heavyweight debut of former light heavyweight champion, Jon Jones, against former interim champion, Ciryl Gane. The winner would walk away with the vacant UFC heavyweight title. Fans were eager to witness the clash of these two elite fighters and were treated to an exciting bout.

The fight started with Gane in southpaw and Jones in orthodox. However, the first strike of the bout was an accidental low blow from Gane that halted the action temporarily. After the brief break, Jones took the center while Gane bounced around the outside. Jones landed two right hands, catching Gane on the end of his long reach.

Jones then grabbed a clinch, maneuvered to Gane's back, and secured a takedown. Gane was in the turtle position, and Jones was looking for more takedowns. Gane managed to get to the cage, but Jones refused to let go. He then stepped over Gane's legs, reminiscent of Khabib Nurmagomedov's style.

Jones relentlessly attacked Gane with a guillotine, and Gane eventually tapped out, giving Jones the victory by submission. The crowd erupted in cheers as Jones was declared the winner and the new UFC heavyweight champion.
