Gane vs Rozenstruik is 'THE' fight to make

No, it would be a waste of a fight. JDS would be a good test for Hardy though.

No, it wouldn't be a waste of a fight. Gane would be a good test for Hardy though.

Stop this nonsense. Gane is the one who needs a good test. He'll be top 10 and needs a fight to push him to contender status. Hardy is nowhere near that level and does nothing for him.

i think if technique mattered that much Francis Ngannou wouldn't be the #1 contender by literally knocking 99% of the people he fights out in a minute with haymakers and Black Beast wouldn't be one of the top KO artists in the division. i think Rozenstriuk has decent setups for his left hand and i think Gane will have to move a lot in order to defend the way he seems to do in fights, with footwork. if he will use another kick strategy, i think Rozenstriuk will counter and win. unless we find out Gane has an iron chin, if that's the case then i do believe he can contend for a title.

so you think Gane will beat Rozenstriuk if they fight?

Rozenstruik isn't Ngannou. I'd easily bet on Gane, he's looked much more impressive and has shown a well rounded game. Has outstruck everyone he's fought, has great kicks, has wrestling and submissions.

Build them up like they did with JDS vs Cain 1. Keep them separate until Ngannou beats Stipe for the title. Then build Gane as the next big thing.

To be honest i haven't been impressed with Rozenstruik. His has some great wins in kickboxing but i expected him to be way more technical. But obviously power matters

In general he hasn't been impressive but results matter. Overeem was outclassing him til he wasn't. He also got beat in 20 seconds against Ngannou but 5-1 in the ufc is 5-1. Even if he didn't comeback against Overeem that's 4-2 against decent comp. He doesn't look very good to me but the results do matter.

My thoughts exactly

Hardy would be a good test for Gane to see if he can handle a bottom rung A level athlete.

What you smoking? Gane beats Hardy with ABSOLUTE easeeeeeeeeeeee. Waste of a fight.

Yup, I am very confident Gane would win, and win comfortably.

Rozen really isn't all that, and is just a power puncher with the odd good counter. Poor footwork, and doesn't have high level cage control. Gane would dictate the fight from start to finish, and would either sub him with ease (Rozen ain't stopping any TDs, nor is he gonna get out of subs), or put a striking clinic on him. JDS was actually outstriking Rozen, and JDS got toyed with tbh against Gane.

Some people have no clue.
Actually I was hoping that Gane had Hardy for his UFC debut, coming as a big underdog. That would have been an epic "Oh shit" moment, people expecting Gane to get slaughtered and seeing him politely beating the crap out of Hardy.
But now it's way too late, Hardy needs some good wins to catch up.

Who cares what a fight does for one? You sound like a casual who only wants the fights that can make Dana more profits. GTFO
