Media Ngannou says that Cyril doesn't have a chin like Stipe

[GolovKing]

Says that going into his fight with Stipe he knew Stipe might require several punches to be stopped but that Cyril doesn't have the same chin. Maybe he really did knock out Cyril or has seen him get dropped or wobbled before in training.

Gane also didn't develop PTSD from fighting, like Ngannou did against Stipe where he had 1 round of energy, before spending the rest of the fight being Stipe's wife.

Ngannou also said that he didn't think Jones was as tough as Stipe, despite never sparring or fighting Jones and Jones never being knocked down to my knowledge (albeit at LHW).

Old-man Stipe probably easier to hit than Gane though

Gane also hasn’t KTFO an opponent of Stipe’s caliber like Francis has.

 

[Senzo Tanaka]

He's not wrong. There were probably 4 or 5 KO ending shots in the last Stipe/Frank fight that Stipe didn't even react to. It was nuts considering he got KO'ed cold by Cormier and didn't lose his chin.

Francis has been saying a lot of things...

He'll have to connect first.

I just hope it's a good fight.

Gane isn't a coward and POS like Naganu was during the Lewis fight. Unlike Naganu, Gane beat the BB into submission. Meanwhile Naganu put on one of the worst fights in the history in the sport, live in front of my eyes.

Lewis v Gane was more cowardly than francis v lewis

Gane's gonna take him into deep water and then sub him.

Ngannou's intangibles (aside from his chin) seem to be dreadful: no engine, easily frustrated and demoralised, lacks courage and confidence (at least after a bad loss). He relies on power, size, speed and durability to win fights, which is a very dangerous combination. But fighters like this are always vulnerable to elite technicians with strong chins and good engines.

Yes the fight where Gane finished BB in under 3 rounds was clearly a more cowardly performance than the fight where Naganu froze like the wuss that he is against the same BB.

After the BB fight, Francis has looked great. So what if he froze against Lewis? That was ages ago. He is now the HW champ after KOing one of the HW GOATs.

 

[Black0ut]

Has Gane ever REALLY been hit in the UFC??

your telling me an undefeated HW fighter has a worse chin then ,war torn GOAT Stipe?

I have a hard time believing that.
