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

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.

chill out bro I’m a certified expert in ACL ruptures/surgery. I got my degree from SherdogU.
 
Exactly three days after Christmas? What does that even mean? Are there non exact days?
"Non-exactly seven days before yestertodaymorrow"
 
I was back to normal in a year... of course my shin didn't look like they opened it with a chainsaw like his does

Yeah, I’m real worried about his future. Love to watch him fight and hope he comes back like Adrian Peterson after his ACL tear.
 



Francis details his injury in this video. It's a series in Youtube. It has 2 episodes now. But I think it's not very worth it to watch all and make full notes of it. Here are some interesting bits I found.


Everything was designed for me to fall and collapse — you know, not to come back. That was it. That was how it was designed. Like, ‘OK, that’s how it’s going to be, let’s go. The injury happened on Dec. 28, exactly three days after Christmas.”

Francis and Erick Nicksick said the injury happen when a fighter from Germany who they are not familiar with stepped up and spar Francis.

We were sparring and I think he got overwhelmed. He shot desperate like takedown you know, then when I tried to turn around, I heard the crack like on my knee. Right at that moment when you hear that on your knee, you know that something is happening, you know. But I was so warmed up that I couldn’t feel it, exactly, but I knew something's not going on. I was hoping that maybe 'ah it was just a bad feeling.'”

“I was willing to do anything possible for me to heal a little bit. I wasn’t expecting to heal up. I wasn’t expecting some magical solution to resolve the injury, but I was just hoping to get a little bit better, as much as possible. Technically, I couldn’t do anything. I wasn’t allowed to do anything where I had to pivot with striking, or anything where I would have to take a chance.”





In the episode 2, it was shown that Erick tried to persuade Francis to pull out from his fight with Gane. Francis persevere and keep on fighting. Very remarkable act, respect.


I hope Francis returns soon. He is one of the most exciting fighter in the UFC. Too bad a lot of things happened which caused him to be inactive. Anybody know who that German fighter (or Sherbro) is? He might be the future Goat.

Maybe he celebrates Ukranian Christmas and wanted to be clear which Christmas he was talking about?
