Ciryl Gane has recruited kickboxer Artem Vakhitov to his training camp in preparation for his bout at UFC White House against Alex Pereira. Vakhitov holds the distinction of being the last person to defeat Pereira in kickboxing, having won their 2021 bout. This strategic addition to Gane's camp suggests he is seeking specific insights into Pereira's striking weaknesses. The partnership aims to give Gane a competitive edge by training with someone who has successfully solved Pereira's style. This represents a thoughtful approach to game-planning for the heavyweight contender.
