Francis Ngannou is the official King of Combat Sports.

[mangokush]

he just wanted to box stfu way more to it than that.

Cry more bitch

Stay mad that Francis made the UFC fumble the bag

 

[Mike]

Lol so how y'all gonna spin this one?

 

[Escabar]

PFL must be so happy right now, Francis star power has never been higher. Lineal mma and boxing heavyweight champ, they should promote him as such.

That Francis guy is kinda special. I wonder how he would do in MMA. Probably not very good, he's just a boxer after all.

On a serious note, I think a lot of people (probably not boxing fans) secretly hoped that this kinda thing would happen. Keep in mind that if you dared suggest that Francis may do anything more than getting schooled, humiliated, and knocked out, you’d get piled on by people saying that they don't wanna listen to people with Down syndrome that DKSAB (you know how boxing fans can be). You would elicit about the same reaction as if you were confidently saying that Palestine was gonna overthrow the whole Izzy government in a glorious land invasion.
Sorry it wasn't a really serious note.

But, on a really serious note :
Wether you like the guy or not, it’s becoming REALLY hard not to be impressed with Ngannou, considering his youth, his story, and all he did until today. I think that he knew from experience that perseverance, even against all odds, is what probably extended his life expectancy above 25yo, so he had every reason to go all in.
Not only did he earn a lot of money, but you can be certain that people are gonna beg to fight him left and right now. I think that almost every HW pro now wants to prove that Francis can’t just start pro boxing and deliver such performances, that it was an accident.
Everything from now on is just bonus, the cash is gonna come.

Makes me regret even more that Gane couldn’t secure another round against him. But I’m glad for Francis, he can relax now.

Win or lose francis won today, so inspiring!!!!!!!

 

[MotorCityCobra]

I'm just glad I get to annoy boxing fanboys about how the HW that doesn't even have the best boxing in MMA went over and went to a SD with their golden boy.

While I respect the trolling, still getting semi tilted by stuff like this. Fury has been a duck and drug cheat for past several years not fighting anyone live except Wilder and looking like shit in the process. However let's say he ends up beating Usyk which I doubt he will....this fights stock will go up tremendously.

 

[King in the North]

Tbh him winning makes a huge difference. Tyson is still the champ and unlike in Rocky there won't be a rematch.

Fury was leaving the champion regardless as the belt wasn’t on the line

 

[ChimRichalds]

Kimuras on everybody.

Honestly, I'm picturing him just yanking some dudes limb off like a fucking Terminator at this point lol. I haven't been this happy for a fighter in a long time.

 

[Bret 'The Hitman' Hart]

Ngannou's clinch game and dirty boxing were on point His grappling/wrestling background served him well

MMA finally "won" one against Boxing, that's pretty cool

I think he undertrained for this fight because Francis looked like shit in all of his tape. Expected to tire him out with body shots and get some late easy TKO. Didn't expect to actually get clipped nor for Francis to have such a hard head. I've always thought Fury would blast the everloving shit out of Usyk and still pretty much do. Think this was just a lazy Fury IMO.
Good for Francis, tonight he chased his dream, now the question is "What now?"

The lineal belt will always matter more than the alphabet ones.

Also WBC made a fake belt for this event that Francis would have held had he won.

Thats nice and all but they have no one for him to fight.

 

[Captain Herb]

Yeah, Jones wanted that fight like a scorching case of the clap

 

[Sanserif]

Ngannou bet on himself and put in the commitment and hard work to fulfil his talent and he won big time. That's why it is never a good idea to bet against ngannou - as Dana white and all the ufc fan boys here are realising today more and more. Ngannou would still be the ufc heavyweight champ today if he were still in the ufc.

 

[Sanserif]

Boxing world on meltdown at the moment.

Lewis was trying to save face for boxing...

Ngannou and his team played him like a harp...

 

[13Seconds]

Yes. Francis is a bad mofo and alot of people were wrong

 

[Jake the Muss]

Ngannou is the GOAT.

 

[Prince Nephilim]

Kingannou, the King of Combat

That's truly what it's looking like and if that's the case, then the Fury camp has become complacent.
