Former UFC champions Dominick Cruz and T.J. Dillashaw have publicly defended heavyweight contender Ciryl Gane following accusations of cheating directed at the French fighter.
The defense comes amid recent controversy surrounding Gane, though specific details of the allegations were not immediately disclosed. Both Cruz and Dillashaw, respected veterans of the sport, spoke out in support of Gane's integrity.
Gane, a former interim UFC heavyweight champion, has been a prominent figure in the division since his promotional debut. The backing from two former bantamweight titleholders adds significant weight to his defense.
