Media UFC 305 Countdown pretends Francis Ngannou doesn't exist *update* Izzy responds

[Söze Aldo]

Because he’s retired and working a full time job?

My point, Ngannou pretty much retired Stripe from MMA.

Stipe figured he was too old for this shit after this hit...until Jon Jones rolled up with a Brinks truck. And that is also why Dana is pretending Francis doesn't exist. Dana would like the above image scrubbed from the internet if he could, so he can more easily promote Jones-Miocic as if it really were a "GOAT vs GOAT" fight and not a retirement tribute.

Such a fluke. Stipe was beating that ass before he got caught.

Your gifs are from the 1st fight. Stipe got absolutely dominated everywhere in the rematch.

are u talking about the negotiator for fighters union?
yes, never existed and was a fraud since the very beginning

I bet everyone in PFL is incredibly thankful for the increased pay, benefits, and insurance that Franci$ made them adopt in order to sign him.

Wait...

Pillow fist Stipe couldn’t finish Francis even after 300 free shots.

 

[italiamusica]

Brilliant and I'm jealous I didn't think of it in the first place

Well now you know for next time lol

 

[pamirec]

I wonder how they gonna explain how Stipe lost his belt?

Easy. They’ll just pretend he stayed inactive for a while, lost his belt and decided to retire. That was until teh UFC offered once in a lifetime opportunity: a Hw GOAT vs Lhw GOAT fight.

Doesn't his first opponent get a guaranteed $2 million?

 

[seanb1979]

technically true since ngannou was living in france when he fought

 

[StonedLemur]

There was no Francis Ngannou

UPDATE: Izzy responds

No matter how hard the UFC scrub, they can't erase Ngannou, as we all seen what happened.

Ngannou deserves to be treated as what he is...a man, a fighter, and a father.
He does not deserve to be condescended to, talked about like he's afraid, nor does he deserve to be shit talked by a lowlife like Dana.

Had they treated him like a person and not a commodity then he might still be here crackin skulls.

 

[Corrado Soprano]

Jesus Christ the UFC media are a bunch of idiots. What a bunch of useless, pea-brained morons. Izzy makes a poignant statement about Francis and the reporters follow-up is some stupid question about anime.

 

[Koro_11]

Fuck Ngannou and fuck Izzy too. Dricus is the one true African king.

 

[TempleoftheDog]

Such a fluke. Stipe was beating that ass before he got caught.

Yellow shorts was the first fight. Ngannou wore grey (we call them white) shorts in the rematch.

 

[Pechan]

Just a reminder that when they started doing the twitter posts during the fight thing, Dana specifically told the production team not to include any Helwani tweet ( who was an ESPN employee at the time) thats how petty Dana is.

Calm down guys, none is forgetting about him:

20 million dollars

20 million dollars

20 million brain cells lost

20 million brain cells lost

Less brain cells lost than posting on sherdog..

Better to post anonymously on Sherdog than partake in a humiliation ritual broadcast around the globe.

Who? UFC already has tooo many Heavy Weight Champs already, keep those gone from UFC out. Stipe/Jones/Aspinall Let us settle for one before we bring in anyone else.
