Surprised by reaction to Ngannou’s win

[Pancake Sprawl]

Rountree has never shot a TD in his entire career, if Blachowicz and Hill couldn;t beat Pereira with wrestling, it wasn't even worth trying.

and yet he got Pereira down in the first seconds of the fight lol...

 

[Dionysian]

What exactly does that make Francis for fighting Ferreira because Ferriera beat a 41 year old Bader?

I don’t need to push PFL because I don’t work for them. Now dance for TKO. By the way beating an old Bader > beating no one. Which is what Stipe has done over the past 4 years. In that timeframe he has done nothing other than losing to Francis in a bout that wasn’t even competitive.

You got me doubting my memory for one second, I had to rewatch it lol.

Aspinall > Jones > Derrick Lewis > Ngannou

He’s not wrong
It’s not like Frank had this long relationship with his kid
Harsh but truth
Anyone who says differently has never lost anyone much less multiple people
It’s a excuse these guys are using for him looking like shit while winning against a oversized goof who will never get gold

People are actually trying to downplay as no big deal losing a friend you’ve possibly known for decades mere hours before you even have made weight and still need to. Let alone actually fighting the next day on a London card created for you by the UFC to make you the next big UK star and going out and winning by finish like you needed to.

Moreover that friend killed himself. He didn’t die of a disease, was murdered, or involved in a random accident. He killed himself. Which leaves you as their friend with enormous guilt for never having noticed anything was wrong, leaves you thinking you weren’t there enough for them, and hurts that they didn’t think they could come to you for help. All things Paddy said as he cried his eyes out on the mic and begged people to check on their friends and to reach out to each other if they need help so they wouldn’t have to go through what he was going through then.

“I’d rather have a mate cry on my shoulder than go to his funeral next week” - fuck anybody downplaying that just cause Francis also lost his son to medical disease 6 months ago.

Holy shit. You're right that retarded isn't the word to use, cuz we're not even talking about just neurodevelopmental issues to say something this stupid. It takes something psychologically empty too. Like an autistic Dahmer up in here, to downplay the death of someone's son by bringing up their youth as a  positive.

Mate you are the one repeatedly bringing up Francis’ son as him being special while simultaneously downplaying every other fighter who’s ever fought after a tragedy.

YOU are the psycho bandwagoner here.

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

interesting that francis has unified all the belts

strikeforce/ufc: Overeem > Bigfoot > Cain > Werdum > Miocic > DC > Miocic > Ngannou
pfl/bellator: Bader > Ferreira > Ngannou

But Ngannou/Ferreira was for a vacant "super fight" belt

Great so why weren’t any of them in the UFC fighting their way to that title then?

 

[markg171]

Actually it was a for the PFL title. Lol at you not realizing that.

The PFL HW belt is on the line on November 29 just like it and every other PFL belt is on the line at the end of every year’s season. Francis and Ferreira fought for a made up vacant Super Fight belt because Francis is signed to their made up Super Fight division for PPV cards like Jake Paul is signed to PFL.

Christ you bandwagons can’t even figure out what the “L” in “PFL” stands for.

 

[Striker Fox]

maybe some people did, but i doubt many people did. Pereira has trash takedown defense too but nobody expected Khalil Rountree to shoot a double on him.

Even on the broadcast "keys to victory" Ngannou's was "test his wrestling", and Renan's was "defend takedowns"

Ngannou has proven to exploit trash TDD against Gane, I'm not even sure Rountree has ever even attempted one

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

Mate you are the one repeatedly bringing up Francis’ son

No I'm not, I've never brought it up and hardly ever responded to anyone on the subject. I'd suspect that's the second time I've even replied to someone who made a negative comment about the death.

as him being special

Also never happened. In no way, shape, or form did I say "He is special because.."

Again, you seem to be confusing multiple voices you disagree with as the same voice, but that was NEVER a point I made.

AT BEST, I've make given a basic "Hey, power to the guy for returning when he didn't need to," but that is a sentiment I'd give to any fighter for fighting while being affected by a great personal loss. Even got my IP banned on the chat of a particular streaming site during UFC 266 cuz some drunk power-hungry mod didn't get what I was saying when I complained about the reaction people were having to Nasrat, when he was fighting just weeks after his mom died.

Which means you can take this third obviously fake claim below that also never happened
V

while simultaneously downplaying every other fighter who’s ever fought after a tragedy.

And shove it up your dumbass

YOU are the psycho bandwagoner here.

You are 0 - 1,000,000 against me

Ngannou didn't even try to wrestle Gane, arguably the best striker at HW, for 3 rounds even though he himself was the only person (besides his team) who even knew he had injured knees and couldn't strike properly with them.

Even compromised as he was he still believed he could score a KO and only made a LITERAL MID FIGHT ADJUSTMENT when that obviously wasn't happening. Not he went out and shot a TD in the first minute like he did here.

GTFO that of all the people Francis has ever stood with, which also includes Stipe 2x, Overeem, JDS, Lewis, Cain, etc., that Renan Ferreira is suddenly the dude Francis was fighting smart with by shooting takedowns on. Christ, can't even bother simply admitting after getting KOTY'd by AJ that he was scared of that happening again in his return to MMA so went for a takedown.

 

[TheTribalQueef]

He'd obliterate aspainall and fight Jon to an epic 5 round draw.

You got your facts wrong.
In his last 3 fights, Ngannou wrestled offensively in the 1st round.

He attempted 2 TD against Stipe in the 1st round, landed one
He attempted 2TDs against Gane in the 1st round, but failed.
He landed 1TD on Ferreira.

His 4 fights before that lasted a minute or less.

So you have to go back to 2018 to find him not wrestling at all for several rounds. And that was before he trained at Xtreme Couture.

Great so why weren’t any of them in the UFC fighting their way to that title then?

Lol @ seriously upholding the notion that not competing / sitting on a couch for 4 years while under UFC contract > pros actively competing regularly outside UFC in terms of proving levels. How much more obvious can it get to scream “TKO employee shill”
