Ciryl Gane has brought kickboxer Artem Vakhitov into his training camp to prepare for his upcoming bout at UFC White House against Alex Pereira. Vakhitov is notably the last person to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing, with that victory coming in 2021. This strategic move suggests Gane is seeking specialized knowledge about Pereira's striking tendencies and vulnerabilities. The addition of Vakhitov could provide valuable insights given his direct experience defeating Pereira. This preparation underscores the high stakes of Gane's upcoming fight.
