By the Numbers: UFC Fight Night 226

Ciryl Gane made Sergey Spivak his personal punching bag.

The Frenchman rebounded from a disheartening loss to Jon Jones in emphatic fashion, as he picked Spivak apart en route to a second-round technical knockout victory in the UFC Fight Night 226 main event at Accor Arena in Paris on Saturday. “Bon Gamin” has won two of his last three Octagon appearances and quiets the doubters who questioned his status as one of the sport’s top big men in the wake of the Jones defeat. Spivak, meanwhile, sees a three-bout winning streak come to an end.

Here is a by-the-numbers look at UFC Fight Night 226, with statistics courtesy of UFCStats.com.

9: UFC wins since 2019 for Gane, which was when he made his Octagon debut. That ties him for third most in the promotion during that time span.

98: Significant strike advantage for Gane (109 to 11) in the abbreviated contest. “Bon Gamin” outlanded Spivak 51 to 7 in Round 1 and 58 to 4 in Round 2.

39: Significant body strikes for Gane. Though he distributed his offense well to all areas — 48 significant strikes to the head, 22 to the legs — his body work played an especially key role in forcing Spivak to wilt.

1: Takedown attempted for Spivak, who was unable to get Gane to the canvas. During his three-fight UFC winning streak, “The Polar Bear” had landed a combined 15 takedowns against the likes of Derrick Lewis, Augusto Sakai and Greg Hardy.

6: Consecutive victories for Manon Fiorot, tying her with fellow flyweight contender Erin Blanchfield for the longest active winning streak in the division. Fiorot took a unanimous verdict over ex-strawweight champion Rose Namajunas in Saturday’s co-main event.

60: Significant strikes landed by Namajunas. Fiorot, meanwhile landed 58. In a closely contested fight, Namajunas outlanded her foe 23 to 18 in Round 1 and 22 to 21 in Round 3, while Fiorot held a 19-to-15 advantage in Round 2. However, Fiorot landed the more impactful strikes during their exchanges.

0: Takedowns landed in six attempts for Namajunas, who entered the matchup with a 57% takedown accuracy in UFC competition.

4: Consecutive finishes for Benoit St. Denis, the fourth-longest active streak in the UFC behind Sergei Pavlovich (six), Jailton Almeida (five) and Shavkat Rakhmonov (five). Denis defeated Thiago Moises via second-round TKO in their lightweight clash. His other victims include Ismael Bonfim, Gabriel Miranda and Niklas Stolze. St. Denis’ four-bout winning streak is also tied with Paddy Pimblett for the second-longest in the lightweight division behind Islam Makhachev (11).

101: Significant strikes landed by St. Denis. By comparison, Moises landed 24 significant strikes. St. Denis outlanded his foe 41 to 18 in Round 1 and 60 to 6 in Round 2.

49: Significant ground strikes landed by St. Denis, who was successful on five of nine takedowns and enjoyed 5:20 of control time. Moises didn’t land any significant ground strikes and secured one of three takedowns for 14 seconds of total control time.

4,012: Days since Volkan Oezdemir’s last submission victory, a first-round kimura of Mamadou Cisse on April 7, 2012. “No Time” earned his second career submission triumph in Paris, as he tapped newcomer Bogdan Guskov with a rear-naked choke 3:46 into the first round of their light heavyweight bout.

2: Finishes stemming from body kicks on the UFC Fight Night 226 card. The first occurred when Morgan Charriere used a pair of body kicks and follow-up punches to dispatch Manolo Zecchini in a featherweight contest. One bout later, William Gomis stopped Yanis Ghemmouri in more controversial fashion, as his opponent claimed the decisive strike landed below the belt.

2,555: Days since Taylor Lapilus’ last Octagon appearance, a unanimous decision triumph against Leandro Issa at UFC Fight Night 93 on Sept. 3, 2016. The Frenchman improved to 4-1 within the Las Vegas-based promotion with a three-round verdict over the previously undefeated Caolan Loughran in a preliminary bantamweight scrap.

36: Significant strikes by which Lapilus outlanded Loughran. “Double Impact” also defended nine of his opponent’s 11 takedown attempts.

98: Significant strikes landed by Ange Loosa in a unanimous decision triumph against Rhys McKee at welterweight. Loosa did his best work in Round 2, when he outlanded his foe by a 54-to-16 count and was on the verge of securing a finish. McKee, meanwhile, landed 77 significant strikes, a total that was bolstered by a 32-to-12 edge in Round 3.

7: Unofficial media scorecards, of the 13 tracked by MMADecisions.com, that awarded the bantamweight clash between Nora Cornolle and Joselyne Edwards to Edwards. The cageside judges thought it was more clear-cut the other way, with tallies of 30-27, 30-27 and 29-28 in favor of Cornolle.

5: Takedowns landed in eight attempts for Edwards, a UFC career high. She also logged 8:42 of control time and attempted the bout’s only submission. Cornolle, meanwhile, outlanded her foe 40 to 18 in significant strikes and 85 to 75 in total strikes. She also executed three reversals.

11: Consecutive victories by Farid Basharat to begin his professional MMA career. The 26-year-old Dana White's Contender Series alum improved to 2-0 in UFC competition with a first-round submission of Kleydson Rodrigues in their bantamweight bout.

.150: Significant striking accuracy for Zarah Fairn dos Santos, who landed just 39 of her 259 significant strikes in a unanimous decision loss to Jacqueline Cavalcanti in a 140-pound catchweight bout. Cavalcanti, meanwhile, landed 126 of 221 significant strikes — a 57% clip. Fairn was especially woeful in Round 1, when she landed just five of her 86 attempts.
