Francis dominated Cyril Gane via wrestling w/ a ruptured MCL

[Exarch01]

At least there was exhaustion collapses in that though. Highly entertaining ending if we're being honest. Two organic Flair flops!

I'm not saying Ngannou has good cardio, but he made it. Like body didn't give out under the effort fighting for more than five minutes.

 

[welcometohavoc]

But he just got a jacket for passing 50 tests?

Its silly that here in 2022 I still have to explain to MMA fans that gains you acquire while juicing can be kept as long as you maintain a physical regimen, like that of a pro MMA fighter for example. Just because he's not juicing right now, doesn't mean he wasn't before

No fight will ever be worse, than that one.

Kimo vs Severn was

 

[Arcticman]

How much did you lose on Gane, bud? I can feel the bitterness.

I wasnt fused who on just calling it was typical conor favoritism win gifted to him by dana because he did fuck all but sleep on the mat for that fight at least gane tried to fight.

 

[The Good The Bad The HBK]

He looked fast against Stipe. How else do you explain the decline?

I'm sure he wasn't 100% but very unlikely to me he had an MCL and ACL tear and all that stuff (his words)

I'm happy Ngannou won either way but still don't believe him

 

[Game_Bred_Irish]

Second in juiciness to Brock.

Brock at least will punch you in the head on the ground.

 

[The Good The Bad The HBK]

They're lucky people didn't start throwing garbage in the octagon, that fight was so uneventful, it was almost a troll job.

First and last mma fight I watched until 04/05

the hw division sucks Jon is taking the belt

 

[ShorterThanLeprechauns]

I thought Gane was the much better fighter, just cost himself with that bonehead leg lock attempt. Ngannou looked bad and just layed and prayed. Boring fight either way, but Gane clearly knows how to shut Ngannou's power down.

"Lay and pray" is all Stipe did in the first Francis fight and he was applauded for it. If Gane has a problem with it, then he should put Francis to sleep in the rematch in the same manner that Francis did to Stipe.

Cyril literally tried to stephen Thompson his way to victory. Run rub leg kick. Run Run leg kick lmao. Francis wrestlefucked him with possibly two blown knees. Lmao. Francis Usman bless.

 

[Dirty Frank]

but but .... Cyril has movement and cardio and footwork and kicks and......

Ngannou trying to silence his critics via brutal LAY N' PRAY...

stipe destroyed Francis tho from pillar to post. Gane had it in the bag if he just stayed on top but he went all in for the heel hook. Gane lost that fight more than Ngannou won. And stipe also had double legs ground and pound - Francis did not advance, no ground and pound, legit looked like Kimbo slice out there. <Lmaoo>

 

[welcometohavoc]

Good, I'm glad Gane's point fighting got beat by wrestlefuck. Now give us Francis/Black Beast II plz.

Never thought I'd hear someone prefer LnP to point striking

Ngannou trying to silence his critics via brutal LAY N' PRAY...

I dont want him vs Fury, I want him vs Deontay. Both carbon copies - 5 minute gas tank KO artists. It will be a sloppy mess <45>

 

[jkthenatural]

Francis is responsible for the worst HW fight I have ever seen in my life.

Which one lol

 

[Snake_bite]

Yup! Something was def off. It was just the wrong time to have a performance like this. Gave Dana plenty of ammo.

the alternative, pulling out would've got him stripped for sure

 

[NGute87]

Francis is responsible for the worst HW fight I have ever seen in my life.

Honest question: was it really worse than BB and Francis?
I'm with you though, the fight sucked.

 

[MMASpeculator]

Kneepads are good if you plan a wrestling heavy attack, not just for injured knees...

Well he also said he had an injured in the interview.

 

[Sticko]

Honest question: was it really worse than BB and Francis?
I'm with you though, the fight sucked.

BB vs. Francis was definitely worse
I actually enjoyed this fight, just wish Francis could have been more active on top

More like Gary Tonnon his way to victory. Gane should have copied Francis and just laid on top of him like a beached whale, then he would have won.
