Media Stipe Miocic Humbles Francis Ngannou

[Carl25]

I'm still always amazed how he has managed to ko so many people in the first round with such horrible striking.

 

[180bysummer]

You're gonna look really dumb when it doesnt happen. Stipe ain't Blaydes, JDS or Rozenstruik

Interesting, do you pick Stipe to beat Blaydes and Rozenstruik before he retires?

Jon Jones: Give me more money to fight at heavyweight.

UFC: No.

Thanks for visiting my TED talk called real world examples directly counter to your point happening as a current event. You guys are candidates for r/Selfawarewolves

You’re a candidate to kick fuckin rocks

 

[firstroundpick]

I don't get you guys, you watched the fight, you watch MMA - why does the fact that Francis landed on Stipe every round and kept him rocked never counts for anything? This never gets brought up. That fight was slow as shit cause Stipe was barely in it.

He still won.

Lmao francis had nightmares after the fight... he was afraid to engage with black beast..

I do

 

[Genisys]

That’s terrible logic. Ngannou lost every second of that fight so he automatically wins the rematch?


By your logic Dan Hardy would DESTROY GSP in a rematch...

He lost every round, but it’s hyperbole to say he lost every second. Stipe’s eye was swollen for a reason. I don’t think Francis can handle Stipe’s sharp boxing or wrestling, but he definitely has a puncher’s chance.

 

[Fess]

I think the very fact alone Stipe couldn’t finish Francis 1.0 should strike fear into the heart. Ngannou wins that rematch ALL day

Francis puts him out cold

What exactly is Francis 1.0 and how he different from Francis 2.0?
I haven't notices any ground game evolution, or more technical striking. Maybe the cardio a little better, but we cannot actually know, as his fights does not come to a decision.
When exactly the Francis 2.0 was born? after which fight?

And I think that the outcome could be the same as the first match or be a KO from Francis, as it could be on their 1st occurrence as well- which most of the people thought would be ( Stipe the champion was the underdog in this fight).

If they will meat, I hope Stipe will punish him again.

Let it go man. If you read between the lines there's a lot more going on in that situation.

I mean the truth is somewhere between.

Stipe had a tiger by the tail despite dominating him - Francis never stopped feeling dangerous at any point. Say what you want but Francis has come back mentally since the loss.

he knows what underhooks are now. Cain fight was a huge curve

 

[g*r*b]

Stipe won, but it was a difficult fight I bet Miocic suffered to sleep after facing Francis.

you talk like it's an easy fight!

Francis brought hell to Miocic.

Just so's you know, the third photo shows Cormier's handiwork. The new style belt is a dead giveaway that it isn't from the Francis fight.

I'm pretty sure he knew it before, and he did utilised it in a fight. It did not help him, as Stipe did not relied on under-hooks to take him down, but he worked with punches, destructing him, and hanged on him to make him tired. Stipe executed a very smart plan, to which Nganu wasn't ready, and of coarse it can not be effective second time around.

Also,

Stipe Miocic mumbles "Francis Ngannou".

When/if that fight happens i will gladly do an account bet. Ngannou doesn’t lose to one man on this UFC roster

 

[Werdun]

Actually the first round seemed like a bull fight. Stipe was running for his life while Ngannou was chasing..

 

[Chok Sok Te]

By the time Stipe fights Francis again he’ll have been through three fights with DC. His chin may start to crack, and with Francis it Just need to clip you anywhere

 

[MMACroatia]

That's DUMB, we know that TDD is one of the easier traits to learn so you are telling me that Stipe does is as easy and "mauls" Francis? that's a lie. I'm willing to bet my house that Stipe gets in trouble this time around. I am not saying Stipe will win but the first fight was a clinic, not a mauling. I definitely think Francis has at least a 50% chance to take that fight in rounds 1,2 or 3. And Francis fans won't be the scared ones entering the fight.

Why would anyone be scared?Are we (fans) fighting?
Based on data,Francis is the scared one,had trauma after Stipe and if he meets him again,all of that mauling will come back.Knowing that guy owned him and that he can do it to him again.
Unless he lands money shot he is done just like the last time, long night of torment.

 

[Abazzdeboom]

There is a reason Nganou wants a title fight or nothing.
Dude knows he cant get that lucky for a long time again.

[One MMA Fan]

I'll favor Francis in the rematch 60-40% just based on the fact that the first fight we had a really rushed version of Francis. He has more experience, more aware of what can happen to him if he doesn't end in the first round, more time training and in the spotlight.. I'm telling you he can pace himself better and clip the champ.

Skill wise I don't know if he really improved we saw too little of him. But the sad reality is that maybe he doesn't need to..

Stipe showed great awareness, defense, footwork, head-movement, heart and chin in the first one but the danger was still there that first round was something then he was so tired and kinda kept in check with the occasional punch that he just coasted into the final decision when at times he had a done opponent on his hands.
