UFC 334 is scheduled to take place this Sunday, November 15, at Madison Square Garden in New York City, with the main card beginning at 3 a.m. French time. Heavyweight champion Ciryl Gane will defend his undisputed title against undefeated American challenger Josh Hokit in the main event, broadcast live on RMC Sport 1 in France.
Return to the Madison Square Garden Cage
Ciryl Gane enters the cage at Madison Square Garden after several heavyweight division changes. The French fighter secured the interim heavyweight title in June at UFC Freedom 250 in Washington by stopping Brazil’s Alex Pereira in the second round, according to Le Parisien – Sports. He subsequently inherited undisputed champion status after Tom Aspinall vacated the title.
Gane’s path to this defense includes an October 2025 bout against Aspinall that ended in a no-contest. Now operating as the established champion, the fighter known as “Bon Gamin” steps into a five-round championship contest against an opponent who has yet to taste defeat in mixed martial arts.
Ten Wins and Zero Losses for Hokit
Josh Hokit arrives at UFC 334 holding a pristine professional record of ten victories and zero defeats. The American contender earned his title opportunity through a pair of notable wins earlier this year, defeating Curtis Blaydes by unanimous decision in April before stopping Derrick Lewis in the second round two months later on the same card where Gane defeated Pereira.
Those performances positioned Hokit for his first UFC championship opportunity, arriving just a year after his promotional debut. For Gane, the matchup represents his inaugural defense of the undisputed belt.
