Interim Bellator champion Moldavsky commented on the upcoming fight between Ngannou and Gan
Interim Bellator heavyweight champion Valentin Moldavsky in an interview with SE gave a prediction for the UFC championship fight between Francis Ngannou and Cyril Gan. The fight will take place on January 23 early in the morning Moscow time at the UFC 270 tournament.
– What is your prediction for the fight between Ngannou and Gan?
— Gan. Hope I can watch the fight. The truth is, I don’t know how. In America, you need to buy something. We will come up with something with Nikita, because I don’t know the scheme of how this happens.
Why Gan?
Fighting is not a disco fight. Here, a thinking person, able to analyze, technical, in theory, should overplay. Of course, if Ngannou informs [удар], and he can convey, then everything will end. But 55 to 45 in favor of Ghana.
— It seems to me that Ngannou is still not so simple.
– Yes, he is not just a grunt, an ordinary grunt could not become the best heavyweight in the world. His boxing technique is good. No matter how they force the topic that he almost threw sand until the age of 30, he has been boxing in Cameroon since childhood. The fact that he did not have the opportunity to perform – yes, but he has been studying since childhood. He has been in sports for a long time, and the fact that he came to professional sports is already such a moment … He has always been engaged in boxing, his hands are good, you can’t say anything. But he, in fact, has only hands. Well, after Miocic, he defends well from the fight, but Gan is unlikely to fight him. Gan will not be able to accurately translate it. By the way, Ngannou could translate Gan, but he is unlikely to try. Most likely, there will be a stand. Gan just has a brighter arsenal and a deader brain.
