UFC heavyweight Alex Pereira shared his prediction for the UFC 334 main event between Ciryl Gane and Josh Hokit.

Gane, who was elevated to undisputed UFC heavyweight champion after former champ Tom Aspinall retired, will battle Hokit in his first title defense in the UFC 334 headliner.
Pereira has made it clear that he is upset the UFC didn’t give him the title shot instead, but regardless, he will watch the fight, and he has a pick for it.
Speaking to Ariel Helwani, Pereira was asked who he thinks will win the UFC 334 heavyweight title fight between Gane and Hokit, and the Brazilian said that he has no doubt Gane will be victorious.
“I think Ciryl Gane (wins). I don’t think (Hokit is ready). He is on a winning streak, but against opponents that are not in a good moment in the UFC. The results show that. If you see the last fights, he was actually getting very tired. Those guys aren’t even in a good moment in the UFC, and he was already getting tired. So imagine a five-round fight. Unless he really changes from the last fight to this one, it’s gonna be hard,” Pereira said (via Bloody Elbow).
After the UFC booked Hokit in the title fight against Gane, the promotion gave Pereira a very tough matchup against former title challenger Sergei Pavlovich at UFC 335 in December.
Pavlovich is a heavy-handed knockout artist who is among the very best fighters in the division, but if Pereira is able to get past him, then he hopes he will get another crack at the heavyweight belt against the winner of Gane vs. Hokit at UFC 334.
Of course, it will matter what happens with the Alexander Volkov vs. Rizvan Kuniev fight at UFC 334, because if Volkov wins that fight impressively, he could very well catapult himself into a title shot.
But Pereira is hopeful a big win over Pavlovich will be exactly what he needs to fight for the belt in his next fight.

Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, and Yash, is undoubtedly one of the most-awaited films of the year. According to a US-based X account named Priya Mathew, a screening of the film was held this week by Sony Pictures Entertainment, the international distributor of the film. She posted about watching the film, and later, netizens started asking her multiple questions about it.

She tweeted, "Saw the film this week. I enjoyed it for the most part but did not appreciate the English dubbing, which I conveyed to Sony. I would much prefer to see films in their original language, in this case, Hindi, which I understand anyway (sic)."
When an X user asked her if she felt connected to the story, Priya tweeted, "I did. I felt connected to the story (emotional, powerful) and I loved the music. I liked the Indian score/music by AR Rahman much more than the parts Hans Zimmer scored. I believe they cut some of the songs for the English version though (sic)." Further, when the X user asked her if the film featured Lord Hanuman, she decided not to give away any spoilers.
While replying to another X user, Priya mentioned that she did shed a few tears. She also revealed that she hadn't watched it in 3D or IMAX and mentioned that there were no full-length songs in the English version.
When an X user asked her about the VFX, Priya replied that they were impressive, but some action sequences looked like AI. Further, while talking about the budget, Priya tweeted, "Well I wouldn’t say that it’s totally on par with The Odyssey for example. That film had an all-star cast and a very well known director attached to it. That was evident in the execution. I enjoyed the Ramayana but thought RRR, for instance, was a better film (sic)."
When an X user asked her why she liked RRR more than Ramayana, she replied, "I liked the story, acting, VFX, music better in RRR vs Ramayana. I still have the same dubbing problem with both films however. I have never been able to watch RRR in its original Telugu form in the U.S. I have watched the Hindi dubbed version several times."
This can surely be considered the first review of Ramayana, and while most of the comments are positive, the comparison with RRR has surely grabbed our attention.
