''I’ve made some selfish choices for this camp. I’ve not seen my family for almost three months. Sometimes, you have to make these choices for your life. But I know that if I go home with the belt, I’m going to be a happy father. Everyone in my family knows this, so they are OK with that.''

When Ciryl Gane discussed an unfortunate incident with his family

French media outlet Le Parisien reported that Ciryl Gane's house was robbed while he was competing against Serghei Spivac at UFC Paris in 2023. During an appearance on The MMA Hour, Gane opened up about the strain on his wife during that time:

''My wife saw that at first, because he did it around 8 p.m. [right before the fight], and so she went to the babysitter, she dropped the girls [off] and she came back, and when she came back she found all of the [chaos] at the home...This is can be really traumatizing for the girls if they [saw it happening]...So, yes, my wife has some traumatizing [aftereffects from the break-in], but she’s OK, and we’re going to fix that.''
