Ngannou's hammerfists

[Luffy]

He has hit opponents who were already down and done, which... Damn, it's risky to even the opponents' lives, imagine being out cold already and getting a full on hammer fist from Ngannou... It happened to Overeem and Stipe Miocic.

That's totally unnecessary. Could the too big adrenaline make that hard to control? Or is that unexplainable, perhaps implying he is mean, in a way?

The adrenaline may be too high... But Alex Pereira, for example, when he drops his opponents, he always look at the judges and see whether they will stop or no. When he dropped Hill with his left hook, he looked at Herb Dean, stopped for a moment, and then hit Hill while he was down, stopping even before Herb Dean pushed him away.

Same thing when Alex head kicked Jiri Prochakza. Despite all the controversy of the early stoppage in the first fight (which was actually stopped right, as Jiri would be just ground and pounded like in the second fight) he still waited for Herb Dean to get there, he saw Herb Dean didn't stop and then he went to the ground and pound.

With Khalil as well... Marc Goddard was already kinda taking it a little too long to stop the fight, I'd say... It should have been stopped earlier. Then, he dropped Khalil, he intended to even grab Khalil's face and knee it when Khalil was falling, but he realized it would just lead to more unnecessary damage. Then Goddard didn't stop it yet, so Poatan looked at Goddard, like, "come on dude, stop this..." and even made an attack motion so Goddard would stop it, something like "look here dude, it's over, stop this..." ...

Idk if it's more common in HW. Aspinall went for hammerfists as well he Sergei was already down and out...

Those “super necessary” shots are a matter of discretion. However I do believe they reveal some about the fighter’s character. Francis always seems to take the opportunity to land a few blows on the unconscious guy. Compare this to someone like Machida or Pereira, or even Hunt… you see there’s a level of respect that isn’t there.

Not that it matters. He’s supposed to be a big, scary fighter after all.

Frank wasn't going back to the sand mine

Dan Henderson did it to Bisping but that was just to shut him up a bit.

It’s more understandable if there’s some bad blood. Bisping talked a ton of shit before that fight.

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

Seems out of character for a saintly person like Franci$

 

[Shaolin Alan]

Never forget!!

Ignored..

If you can’t keep your lips off of Ngannou’s sac.

And post your irrelevant fantasies in the Heavies..

The MODS seem to be down with your trolling.. I am NOT.

Post in the proper sub, clown.

 

[Hank Grill]

It just goes to show you that Francis doesn't and never had the class of the god fearing man in Jon Jones.

 

[TJH Exitium]

I think he's been through some shit and his mind goes to dark places when he fights

he's absolutely bloodthirsty when he goes for the finish, and seems to snap out of it afterwards and looks very emotional

 

[Mind Mine]

This is hypocritical as hell. So it’s ok if you have bad emotions towards an opponent to unnecessarily hurt him but the guy who just beats people until the ref stops he’s the savage lol?

 

[Paolo Delutis]

They all know what they signed up for..

Sometimes its Alex P... Sometimes its dan Henderson

And other times

Its a Jeremy Stephens..type of finish

So you wanna be a fighter...

 

[Söze Aldo]

Protect yourself at all times; only stop when the ref tells you to. Two maxims to fight by.

 

[Sean Chowdhury]

he can do what he wants until the ref steps in, considering where he came from it makes sense he doesn't want to take any chances or show mercy to his opponents

 

[Hymen Crusher]

I hate to see guys get hit after it's over. However it's these guys job to make sure the ref steps in. When your a guy at Francis level wins and losses equate to millions. For a million dollars I'd hammerfist until they pull me off. I don't think he is happy after but it is what it is.

Wtf are you on about man? Are you serious or just trolling? Like, I can't tell, because if you aren't trolling, you find something irrelevant and "fantasie stuff", then you aren't even trying to make sense.

 

[TheGreatA]

I think it's just muscle memory, something that's been ingrained into him through endless repetitions in training. He seems very "robotic" when he fights. He does the same exact thing every time he knocks someone down.

I was honestly surprised he didn't go for the hammer fist when he dropped Fury.

 

[Emjay]

Don't get KO'd and you won't have to eat hammer sandwiches.

Walk off KOs are more about highlight reel than respect

That’s not hypocritical in the slightest.
