The first UFC pay-per-view of the year has two title fights Saturday, and each has a killer back story. Heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou (16-3 MMA, 11-2 UFC) takes on interim champ Ciryl Gane (10-0 MMA, 7-0 UFC) in the main event. The two happen to be former training partners, and there’s no shortage of drama and potential bad blood in the build-up. And in the co-feature, flyweight champ Brandon Moreno (19-5-2 MMA, 7-2-2 UFC) meets ex-champ Deiveson Figueiredo (20-2-1 MMA, 9-2-1 UFC) in a trilogy fight. They’re fighting for the third straight time in a little more than 400 days
