Heavyweight champ Francis Ngannou is taking a while because he's finishing reading War and Peace.
It's like 3AM in your region eh.. But Francis is finally up.Fuck this I'm going to bed
Dude looks like he took time to shower and shave and shop for clothes/jewelry.It's like 3AM in your region eh.. But Francis is finally up.
Of course he did. That's why I avoid becoming a fan. I reserve that fandom till after they become a bigger name because some turn into assholes when they reach that point.Dude looks like he took time to shower and shave and shop for clothes/jewelry.
Thanks for the summary. His English is not so good so its difficult to understand him a times.Francis said prior to the fight he had a damaged ACL and MCL that occurred 25 days ago. On Tuesday his doctor said he shouldn't fight as he could suffer irreversible damage. He still wanted to fight because you never know what might happen in the future. That's why he didn't switch stances often. Frances said Cyril is a good guy and he respects him. In the first two rounds he felt shaky on his legs. After the second round he thought of Cameroon and it lifted his spirits. After the third round, particularly after the takedown, he felt more confidence and could see that Gane was weakening. Per the UFC he feels it's about more than just money. It's also about being treated with respect. He said he has made every effort to reach out to them and is tired of it. Said that regardless of what happens in the future he's at peace with himself.
My pleasure. Hope you enjoy a good remainder of the weekend.Thanks for the summary. His English is not so good so its difficult to understand him a times.
I don't even like Francis but he is dead right. Also, it's fucking ridiculous and low how Dana didn't put him the belt nor attended the press conference, really shameful.Francis said prior to the fight he had a damaged ACL and MCL that occurred 25 days ago. On Tuesday his doctor said he shouldn't fight as he could suffer irreversible damage if he injured it further. He still wanted to fight because you never know what might happen in the future. That's why he didn't switch stances often. He doesn't think he suffered further damage to the knee. Frances said Cyril is a good guy and he respects him.
In the first two rounds Francis felt shaky on his legs. After the second round he was feeling pretty tired. Then he thought of all the support he has from people in Cameroon and it lifted his spirits. After the third round, particularly after the takedown, he felt more confidence and could see that Gane was weakening. After the fight was over, leading to the judges' decision he felt confident of his victory. Regardless of how the fight may gone he is proud of his accomplishments and will keep moving forward.

Hi Kryptt. My pleasure. Wild & crazy card. Happy for Ngannou too. Not surprised he won but wow the way he did was surprising. Yeah, I'd like to see Fig defend his title against someone else - maybe Kara France - before another rematch. Lots of upsets on this card. See ya at the next PbP.I was quite weary and missed the Post show.
Nice recap and appreciated.
I gave the card a 4 - maybe a 4.5 - I enjoyed it from top to bottom and even though my picks didn't shine it was still very engrossing and entertaining.
Very happy for Ngannou!
Not so sure I want a 4th anytime soon but I have to say they both continue to impress.
Monster and Sid well deserved bonuses as well.
Plus who doesn't want to jump into Joe Rogan's Arms for an Interview!
Has Dana shown up, or vacated the premises out of sheer rage and embarrassment?
