UFC 334: Ciryl Gane retains heavyweight title; Kayla Harrison submits Amanda Nunes; Wonderboy wins in retirement bout

Ciryl Gane retained the UFC heavyweight title with a unanimous decision over Josh Hokit, Kayla Harrison submitted Amanda Nunes to keep the bantamweight crown, and Stephen ‘Wonderboy’ Thompson closed his career with a win over Charles Radtke at UFC 334 at Madison Square Garden on 15 November 2026.

UFC’s annual trip to New York produced a 13-fight card at the arena, headlined by Gane versus Hokit. Hokit opened the fight aggressively, applying a high tempo that limited Gane’s room to work, but Gane recovered across the later rounds and secured a unanimous decision (48-47, 48-47, 48-47) to retain the heavyweight title.

In the co-main event, Kayla Harrison submitted a conscious Amanda Nunes with a rear-naked choke at 1:29 of Round 4 to retain the bantamweight title. The result came in Nunes’ return fight after she had enjoyed notable success in striking; Nunes chose to grapple with Harrison, the two-time Olympic medalist, and Harrison capitalised on a single mistake to finish the bout.

Stephen ‘Wonderboy’ Thompson ended his fighting career with a victory over Charles Radtke, landing a spinning wheel kick for the finish in what the report described as his retirement fight. Thompson’s post-fight message read: "Tonight I couldn't ask better to go out with a spin hook kick TO THE DOME! Let's go!" – @WonderboyMMA.
