so we got an interesting one

first thing we can see right away is that Derrick " the black beast" lewis is trying yo intimidate le bon gamin right away, like a gorilla in a jungle he beat his chest,scream and run towards is opponent.
The goal here is clear,he is trying to show he is the alpha and that he is in his territory..but the only reaction he get from cyril is a smile ,wich piss him off even more , clearly Cyril don't see him as a threat but as something entertaining, he start even laughing at him.
the two are separated and then they face off again, eyes to eyes this time.
you can clearly see the doubt in the eyes of lewis as he begin to talk and make some hand gestures to hide the fact that he can't hold against gane ice cold staredown.
he even break character start smiling and disengage as he know he is losing.


the conclusion is ,after this face off,from my expert point of view i can clearly say.
cyril his in is head and derrick is shook.
gane by tko round 3

if you want to judge for yourself

Man, get the fuck outta here. I thought this was a REAL expert. At least someone who does this as a side gig on YouTube.

What I saw was Gane was uncomfortable with these contrived drama opps. He probably just wants to fight and hates the PR bullshit. I've got him by decision and I like Lewis way more. H-Town represent!
 
I saw Ganes eyes looking blank and lost. He kept having nervous eye palpitations and couldn't quite figure out where to look in BBs eyes which showed he is nervous and has doubt in himself. BB won the stare down from an analytical standpoint.

I read a fun stat that says the fighter who smiles during the face off usually loses.
 
this study is bullshit bro,i only use advanced science and psychology to analyze the staredown.
and in the magny staredown you can argue that both are smiling.

I admire the double down.
 
here’s an article about it.
It is important to mention that there are different smiles (not just in mma)
Some smiles are anxious, some smiles are 100% from being triggered (common misconception is that "triggered" is always an explosive or violent reaction ,but real "triggered" is a frozen face or an awkward smile).

Gane did look a bit too comfortable in there. I think most people would back away from someone trying to bring fist way too close to their face. In the end he kinda did look annoyed, but really , for the most part he looked like he was chilling on the beach with a cool drink in his hand.

Notice how Lewis had to slightly touch Gane multiple times, because he created too much tension and lost. He had to win something , so he put his handss on Gane to win some sort of trophy.
