Just two juicy boys fighting it out on the feet. Who KOs who?
This. And hell, the HW division being what it is, why not book it? Freakshow appeal normally scores big PPV numbers.MMA or Kickboxing it doesn’t matter, it’s not like Francis is shooting any textbook takedowns lol.
I would imagine Rico would have to be favored.

Rico's chin won't hold up
Agreed. Look what Gane is doing with a mediocre kickboxing resume, MMA blowhards act like he’s reinventing the wheel lol.
Rico is just as big as Gane, more fluid, and far cleaner. He’d have the height advantage on Ngannou and his defense is top notch. He’s also a cardio freak. I think he’d stay behind his signature teep kick and finish Ngannou late in the fight.
Why not? We've seen francis take people down and win via submission. Its not like youd need a perfect takedown to get rico to the ground.
You don’t believe that. Francis would gas trying to force offensive wrestling. His only submission win in the UFC was against Anthony Hamilton who’s an absolute can and it came off a reversal.
Look at what Adesanya is doing to fools at MW… he’s on his own level right now. A division with no wrestlers like HW would be ripe for the picking for a high caliber striker.
The reason the UFC signed Gane after only three professional MMA fights is BECAUSE Glory had extended a contract to him and he was going to take it.
If his resume was so mediocre why would they offer him a contract?
Ironically, Brice Guidon who was Ricos first major loss, was knocked the fuck out by Gane
You are a moron.
You mean like what Gane is doing right now?

Huge kickboxing fan here. And I've seen a ton of Rico fights. He's hittable and I don't think he'd been hit by a guy like Francis. I stand by my statement. I also think he lost to Saki. Great fight either way thoHe’s only really been KO’d once in like 70 kickboxing fights at HW and that was like a decade ago when he was 20 lol… do you know how impressive that is?
Are MMA fans really this misinformed?
