Media Ngannou: "Everything was designed for me to fall"

[Crazy Librarian]

yes. there's 3 non exact days after christmas followed by 5 exact days before christmas that are within 1 non exact week on christmas 2 exact weeks after christmas which is 2 exact hrs before non exact new years eve.

get with the program.

 

[The Last King]

36 years old coming off ACL and MCL surgery. Will be interesting if he will ever be able to regain his peak form.

 

[Hypetrainofthemonth]

Exactly three days after Christmas? What does that even mean? Are there non exact days?

Well there's some country in Africa that's in a completely different year because (I think) they have just "removed" months from how they count the days/months/years, haha....

So who knows!?

 

[checktheknuckles]

A 36 year old coming off an ACL and MCL tear is a harrowing thought.

Stipe and DC both fought for the belt at 38+. Still plenty of time to heal up. Another reason why dude should get paid well instead of fighting for peanuts into his 40s.

 

[pamirec]

Francis is pro-fighter pay.

By that he means HIS pay.

No doubt about that, but I do think his constant “bitching” helps other fighters know their worth and demand hespect.

 

[pamirec]

It is an individual sport. If he gets paid more that opens the door for other fighters to get paid more, because they can use Ngannou's contract/pay as an example. Since they don't have a union this is how fighter pay raises. Conor is also responsible for the increase in fighter pay. He was the first mma fighter making million dollar fight purses. Everyone that fought him made more money and now multiple fighters have made million dollar fight purses.

Oh yeah Conor fucking changed many fighters’ bum lives.

GORO is going to beat you up now for stealing his content.

Hahahahaha, completely forgot about that guy. The Ngannou/Gane build up. Good times...

@StonedLemur, remember GORO?

I miss @GORO

Episode 2 is out

Fucking did it again too. Needing knee surgery, you delayed that for 2 months. Because you needed to go to Cameroon? Apparently surgery and a cast is much worse than doing whatever the fuck for two months on a wonky knee?

Come on man.. I blew out my knee. Just trying to walk was completely ridiculous. Who the fuck delays that shit to go on vacation instead? I had my surgery the next morning.

You don't seem to know shit about knee ligament surgery. It is very common to delay the surgery 8 weeks or more after the injury and some studies have shown it is better to wait and have rehab before.
Actually, other recent studies tends to show that surgery alltogether is not necessary for ACL rupture.

Ngannou's doctor is the guy who treated Tom Brady's knee (And GSP and Conor), so let's suppose he is not the average backyard doc.

 

[Trabaho]

I wonder which one of us hurt big Frank

 

[SaltedVinegarfootstomps]

I’m actually somewhat annoyed by this story. how do we not have pictures of this German sherdoggers hairline?

 

[BigSexy444]

Freak heavyweight athlete Ngannou overcame the odds.

 

[TJH Exitium]

yes. there's 3 non exact days after christmas followed by 5 exact days before christmas that are within 1 non exact week on christmas 2 exact weeks after christmas which is 2 exact hrs before non exact new years eve.

get with the program.

exactly

 

[MuddyFugger]

Strip him already

 

[warriorfan808]

I hope he comes back. He is was one of the few MMA fighters to be able to demand great pay without trying to copy Conor’s shit talk routine.

 

[tonil]

after consuming some weed that video should be examined from 0:05 -0:08 with 0.5 playback speed

 

[Petarito]

I am sick of Francis crying around, complaining and creating these conspiracy theories

Man up and be a champ

 

[Boomb]

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Utterly pathetic.

Sure, buddeh. When the UFC hyped your ass to no end, before you fought Stipe the first time. Yes, all designed to make you fail. Or there’s the part where you blew off TC. Just so you could do whatever in France. That worked out really well for Penn, before the rematch with GSP too.

Fucking did it again too. Needing knee surgery, you delayed that for 2 months. Because you needed to go to Cameroon? Apparently surgery and a cast is much worse than doing whatever the fuck for two months on a wonky knee?

Come on man.. I blew out my knee. Just trying to walk was completely ridiculous. Who the fuck delays that shit to go on vacation instead? I had my surgery the next morning.

Playing the victim card is way too fucking much, man. Crying about only getting paid $600K. And yet somehow you left out that whole part where you literally blew off $7M?

Crying about being left on the shelf. So maybe accept that Volkov fight you turned down?

Is there literally anybody on this planet buying this guy’s bullshit anymore?

I've been saying this. Kids in high school and young adults in college tear their knees on Saturday and by Wednesday they've already had the surgery to repair the knee.

The ufc hw champ delays ACL/MCL for 2 months. Was he being pushed around in a wheelchair for those 2 months?

And the thing is if you were never a serious athlete you'd think he's being genuine when reality he's spinning a story.

Cowboy and his wife have repeatedly said Cowboy didn't get a pay bump to fight McGregor.
Eddie Alvarez tried to negotiate for more money when he fought McGregor and the ufc threatened to call off the fight with McGregor and have Khabib fight Alvarez. The ufc went so far as to send Khabib 2 contracts to fight Alvarez and Alvarez ended up caving and getting paid off his contracted amount.
