Ciryl Gane has invited kickboxer Artem Vakhitov to join his training camp as he prepares for his fight against Alex Pereira. Vakhitov represents a strategic addition to Gane's preparation, as he is the last fighter to have defeated Pereira in kickboxing, achieving victory in 2021. This recruitment suggests Gane is seeking insights from someone who has successfully solved Pereira's striking game. The French heavyweight is clearly prioritizing understanding Pereira's style ahead of their high-profile matchup. Vakhitov's firsthand experience against Pereira could provide valuable tactical advantages for Gane's gameplan.
