Chael picking Stipe = Bet the house on Ngannou. haha

That said, he does make some valid points here.

Stipe has the experience, and the more well-rounded skill-set. He has proven himself against the toughest competition, and over the course of a 5 round war.

Ngannou, although rightfully feared for his murderous power, still has yet to be truly tested in the UFC.

This fight should be the one that tests him, and gives us answers on just how good BOTH guys are.

 
Linking all these Chael video's Arm and you haven't yet boarded the Colby train what's up son ?

Chael's predictions are 99% "Are they a wrestler"
 
Huge if Struve.

Chael is GOAT heel level my brother.

Colby is getting up there, but not quite as smooth as Uncle Shael yet.
 
Those Chael videos are beyond great. He is a better promotor of the UFC roster than Dana.

"Rampage is a tough dude, but so is your ace"

This is a problem I learned with Dom vs Cody and losing money on that.

Just because he isn't as tested, doesn't mean he will fail once he is tested.

Sometimes fighters have skills or attributes that they haven't had the opportunity to show.
 
It's the HW's. Modest TDD, 2 round gas tank, durability and hitting really fucking hard are all it takes to win the belt
 
Sometimes hitting hard is all you need...

But I'm leaning toward Miocic in this one
 
Chael has proved he has no counter for the triangle choke, but what else?
 
He’s also proved that anything said in broken English with a French accent is infinitely more intimidating.
 
Stipe is nowhere near the wrestler that Curtis Blaydes is, Blaydes is a much better wrestler and has much better control, infact Blaydes is one of the better wrestlers in UFC in any weightclass. He has only lost to Ngannou and I expect Blaydes to be fighting for HW title in 15+ months. That was a top win for Ngannou. Sonnen obviously doesn't know Ngannou fought Blaydes with his comment.

Chael wants to see how good he is at turtling up before he’s convinced
 
not normally a fan of the HW division but this fight definitely intrigues me , Can stipe avoid the power of francis and what does Francis do if he can't land that big bomb , I could see a quick KO or a rumble v DC type fight going down .
Edit actually No time v DC could be a very similar fight also

All that ^^^ True I gotta love/hate thing with Chael love him because we share the same Bday (Apr03) but hate some of the sh!t he says, but he speaks truth most times...

Colby gotta do more fighting than talking, and after Usman tears through Meek next Sunday the talk will get louder for them to fight and prove his rank.
