Alex
Pereira has taken several shots at Ciryl
Gane.

“Bon Gamin” is expected to be elevated to undisputed champ status
after Tom
Aspinall vacated the
Ultimate Fighting Championship heavyweight title. The
Frenchman, who won the interim title at
UFC Freedom 250 by finishing Pereira, is no longer on track for
a title unification bout with Aspinall, whose Octagon return has
been further delayed due to medical complications.

Pereira is gunning for a rematch with Gane and recently took to
social media to poke holes in the champ’s record.

Alex Pereira questions Ciryl Gane’s UFC résumé as the
heavyweight title picture changes

Pereira shared a post on Instagram of a graphic questioning Gane’s
UFC record. He accompanied his post with the caption: “Champion,”
followed by three laughing emojis.

The post referenced Gane’s previous heavyweight title losses
against Francis
Ngannou and Jon Jones, as
well as his controversial victory over Alexander
Volkov in their rematch, which many scored in favor of the
Russian. It also highlighted Pereira’s own loss to Gane, wherein
“Poatan” alleges multiple illegal back-of-the-head shots were
landed.

Josh
Hokit has been rumored as the next opponent for Gane. The
unbeaten American has shut down any possibility of Pereira getting
the next title shot. He reacted to a recently taken image of
Pereira, all smiles, with UFC exec Hunter Campbell, claiming the
former two-division champ isn’t in the running for a shot at
heavyweight gold.

“That’s the ‘You aren’t fighting for the title but you are still
getting 10 million’ smile,” Hokit wrote on X.
