Depends what you mean by fight IQ. Gane has very good movement so in those terms he's quite exceptional given his weight class. However, that Ngannou fight he didn't display all that much fight IQ, especially when it comes to versatility. I mean, I still can't get over how he basically got dominated on the ground, when a lot of us before that fight would've had Gane being the better of the two on the ground. Simply, since Ngannou doesn't have a long history of mixed martial arts, in fact he's relatively new to MMA.

I have my doubts about Gane, and I think Ngannou exposed that side of him. Whether or not he has the heart too when the going gets tough. Tai will bring the heat, but Tai is relatively slow, and quite hittable, which suits Gane down to the ground if you ask me.

There is no doubt that Tuivasa can surely brawl, and he has the most dependable chin in the heavyweight that withstands even Lewis, but for me, the most prominent fight IQ will go for Bon Gamin, and Gane's fight with Francis Ngannou surely exposed him for simply going to their plan, but Francis Ngannou has good instinct and I think that Ciryl Gane, has learned something on that fight, and he will surely show it on this fight, and no doubt his not really ready for Francis Ngannou, but seeing Tai Tuivasa now on the weigh-ins pretty much there are some improvements but there are a lot of advantage for Cyril Gane in this fight, for me so I am still going for Bon Gamin,

Here are my picks for the UFC Fight Night: Gane vs. Tuivasa

Ciryl Gane VS Tai Tuivasa

Tai Tuivasa's advantage would be his durable chin, he can surely brawl inside the octagon, and if Gane doesn't have the power to make his punch very effective of doesn't hurt Tuivasa then that would be his loss because when Tuivasa counters that will surely inflict a lot of pain for Gane, while Ciryl Gane has good movement and speed even though this is the heavyweight division his speed and movement was a prominent for the Light Heavyweight, for me his height and reach advantage could be the advantage just like what he did to Derrick Lewis, this could happen against Tai Tuivasa but if Tuivasa could be hurt by Gane's punches,

Robert Whittaker VS Marvin Vettori

For me, Robert Whittaker is surely great in striking but he can not underestimate Vettori because Marvin Vettori can submit a Jui Jitsu black belt fighter, pretty much he has decent ground game, but surely Vettori also has a great chin for those Whittaker feints pretty much I am 50/50 in this because Whittaker has great striking and has decent takedown defense aswell, but for me, I will surely take Vettori's good chin to withstand's Whittaker's strikes so I am going for Marvin Vettori,

Ailin Perez VS Stephanie Egger

The Sexy Twerking Fighting kitten Ailin Perez is super hot that she could light the Octagon on fire, and this is her Debut for the UFC, while Egger has a decent record that could make my Fighting kitten has the disadvantage here, but for me I feel like Ailin Perez has a decent striking while Egger has surely had a ground game, but I will still go with Ailin Perez, she surely has a lot to show for the UFC and this is her debut I think she will never fail on this for her first time,
