STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOS - Former UFC interim heavyweight champion Cyril Gane put on a clinical display of striking to beat Serghei Spivak by technical knockout as the world's biggest mixed martial arts promotion returned to Paris's Accor Arena on Saturday.
However, the Frenchman's fluid movement and slick striking enabled him to stay out of Spivak's clutches and he landed a heavy knee to his opponent's midsection midway through the first round. Stepping up 10 pounds into the 125-pound weight class in the co-main event, Namajunas took on the third-ranked Fiorot looking to make a name for herself in a new division but her attempt to get into the title picture was derailed in a bloody battle.
