Is Ngannou the most terrifying fighter ever?

Everything you need to know about this guy's personality can be summed up in these clips here

Being arrogant


Still arrogant and bitter, doesn't know how to react to a simple compliment from a guy who beat him


Being passive aggressive and angry at interviewer just for repeating what Francis just said


Finally Ngannou's coach giving his thoughts on Ngannou turning his back on him, you can either choose to believe or not, up to you

So that's your compilation of the guy being aggressive and confrontational?
I am speechless seeing those vicious attacks, he belongs in jail...

No.

He fought Stipe,and Stipe kicked his ass.

What can Ngannou do to you that anyone else in the HW cant? Knock you out? big fuckin deal.

I like Francis,and hes got scary power,but most terrifying fighter ever? that would be the guy who aint lost,aint been put away,and dont look like itll happen anytime soon,FOR STARTERS
 
Crocop back in the day was pretty scary too.

Definitely scarier than Sapp too.

He did lose, but he has never been put away, never been submitted, never been knocked down and never even bled in a fight. It's pretty unique at this weigh class.

Sure,but i dont think it makes him "the most terrifying fighter ever" personally
Stipe took all he had to offer,and was still there.
 
He's certainly got incredible power. Most terrifying though? Wasn't Stipe his first big fight? Stipe didn't seem terrified.

By contrast, prime Tyson terrified people. In first title fight the champ looks like his knees are shaking prior to the start. It was over quick.

For UFC it looks like prime Crocop & prime Vitor are more a consensus. They were before my time of watching. Since I've been watching I'd suggest prime Khabib. MacG, Poirier & others have gone back to their corners & said basically 'I can't do a thing against this guy.'
 
Prime Lesnar
Prime Bob Sapp. Especially v Hoost. He looked like he was going to knock his head off.
 
Francis Nogroundgameou.

Sloppy punching and poor grappling.
 
Prime Lesnar
Prime Bob Sapp. Especially v Hoost. He looked like he was going to knock his head off.

Imagine a younger Lesnar. At 28, and well trained.

That would have been something.

Sure, but every single fighter at HW had a least a fight where he looked like a victim.
Plus the fact that Stipe beat him over 5 rounds and in the end he was the one who looked like he had in a car crash also defies logic.

The point is you guys talk about him like he's some giant african version of wonderboy Thompson. He's not, he's a dick actually. And I wish you'd go up to him and try to tickle him like a "giant teddybear" that y'all like to call him. The reaction would be hilarious when he slaps you across your face

Nope. But the "proofs" of him being aggressive and confrontational are laughable...

Pretty sure 90% of the roster would react like that... and not even sure Ngannou would.

The double standard is hilarious, in a sport where guys attack buses, corner other fighters in hotels, throw hands backstage, get arrested for assault or domesteci violence every other week.

Really so tell me out of the heavyweights in the top 10, which of them do you think are more likely to get upset in similar situations and which aren't?

What double standard are you talking about? I'm not out here saying people like Conor or Mike Perry are nice people

If you put Ngannou in the same batch as Conor, Perry, Khabib, Jones, Masvidal yeah you're certainly applying a double standard here.
