UFC 334 will go down at Madison Square Garden in New York with Ciryl Gane (14-2-0) and Josh Hokit (10-0-0) clashing for the Heavyweight crown. Gane will come into this Main Event looking to retain his belt and continue with his rapid rise in the division. The 36-year-old Frenchman is a two-time champion and is unbeaten in his last four assignments. He defeated Alex Pereira at UFC Freedom 250 in July this year to secure the championship. “Bon Gamin” is the -209 betting favorite this weekend.
Josh Hokit, on the other side of the Octagon, will face the reigning champion looking to protect his unbeatable record. The 28-year-old American joined the franchise in August last year after finishing Guilherme Uriel at the DWCS. He went on to win his next four assignments, including three KO/TKO finishes, to earn a title shot against Gane. He’ll be keen to impress this weekend as the exciting +160 betting underdog.

Our Ciryl Gane vs Josh Hokit Prediction
Josh Hokit is an exciting youngster who will want to dethrone Gane with his first attempt on Saturday. He’s younger and faster than his opponent and likes to fight aggressively to close the distance. The American averages 9.29 significant strikes per minute, which is almost twice the number posted by Gane. However, the Frenchman will likely use his vast experience to carefully keep his distance and land accurate shots. His punches can be lethal, considering he has a 61% striking accuracy. Another reason why we’re rooting for Gane to win is his significant 8-inch reach advantage. That will surely make a difference in this contest. The reigning champ should win via KO/TKO.
Our prediction for Ciryl Gane vs Josh Hokit: Ciryl Gane to win.
