WATCH: Ciryl Gane does hilarious impression of Nate Diaz

Ciryl Gane is known for his humorous nature and light-hearted personality, and today is no different. He has released a hilarious short clip of himself impersonating the beloved Nate Diaz.

'Bon Gamin' is in limbo waiting for his chance to fight as the UFC heavyweight division undergoes a period of uncertainty. With champion Francis Ngannou's contract up and Jon Jones' delayed move up from 205, the Frenchman is unsure of what's next for him. He currently sits at #1 in the weight class.

In a video posted on social media, Ciryl Gane can be seen doing his best impersonation of Nate Diaz. While it may not go down well with the Stockton native, it's a scarily accurate performance from the 32-year-old.

Last time out, Gane put on a fantastic display as he overcame the devastating power of Tai Tuivasa and scored his very own TKO win in the main event of UFC Paris four months ago.

The well-rounded heavyweight has already had a chance to capture gold in the promotion. He came up short in a razor-close clash against his former teammate Francis Ngannou.

If Ciryl Gane isn't given a title fight next, there are a number of fighters in the division that would make for phenomenal matchups with the Parisian. The debuting Jon Jones, the surging Sergei Pavlovich, and the pressure of Curtis Blaydes could all serve as perfect opponents in a potential title eliminator bout.


Nate Diaz's unknown destination

Since leaving the UFC following his win over Tony Ferguson last year, there has been a lot of speculation surrounding Nate Diaz's future and the number of options he likely has at his disposal has most probably prolonged his decision.

While he could just be enjoying some time away from competing, the 37-year-old's name has continued to be brought up in various conversations and it seems the PFL has a keen eye on the MMA legend.

With Jake Paul joining the company, the history the YouTuber has with Diaz could well set up a super-fight in the PFL cage which would, without a doubt, attract a lot of eyes.

A decision may not have been made yet, but it seems like Nate could be interested in a move to Japanese promotion Rizin after he uploaded a cryptic post using their logo on his social media.
