Tanner Boser professional record
21 Dec 2019

In his third UFC bout, Gane faced Canadian heavyweight Tanner Boser in Busan, South Korea, winning a unanimous decision (30-26 on all three cards) in a fight where his technical striking edge was consistent even if a finish never materialised. Boser was durable enough to survive to the final bell but could not close the gap against Gane's range and movement.

Key moments

  • Boser landed combinations early but Gane's movement and counter-striking kept him on the back foot.
  • Boser survived the full three rounds despite eating consistent body and head strikes.
  • A third straight UFC win moved Gane further up the heavyweight rankings.
