Getty Ciryl Gane, Alex Pereira
UFC president Dana White shared his take on the alleged illegal strikes in the Alex Pereira vs. Ciryl Gane fight at UFC Freedom 250.
In the co-main event of the UFC White House card, Gane dropped Pereira with a big punch in the second round and then began to attack him with ground and pound once the two hit the floor. Several of the strikes appeared to hit the back of Pereira’s head, but referee Herb Dean did not warn Gane for the strikes. Soon after, Gane won the fight via TKO
