Ngannou would earn his way back to a second shot against Miocic with another string of highlight-reel knockouts and this time claim the heavyweight belt at UFC 260 in the rematch.

He's got both. Francis does have better punching mechanics than people give him credit for.

Francis has phenomenal timing though
What about both though? We’ll see won’t we?

Homeless man rose to the top of UFC, then quit UFC to help other fighters on contract fight the evil contract obligations. This is what a pure soul is like. Respect
His over-eagerness to ground and pound knocked out opponents makes me think that this guy isn't a pure soul at all(not that I really fault him for that, he is what he is). It's more likely that he is on that crusade for revenge reasons rather than helping others.

@@andreitomescu7847 😂
Man went ape mode n only landed 1 clean hit in that flurry. All he needed was one of them to land. That terrifying.
What really added to the visual and psychological impact of that fight was the absence of the noise vacuum caused by a roaring crowd. You didn't just hear literally every strike land, you felt it.
First time seeing Francis was against Overeem

Casual.
I literally thought we might have witnessed the first death in the octagon when I seen that. I was genuinely happy that Alistair not just lived but was fully functional and not handicapped after that KO lol
I like how he always throws those absolutely neccesary punchs after sending them to shadow realm
I don’t particularly because the damage inflicted after being unconscious could be career ending. They’re already out cold. I prefer class over a lack of respect for fellow athlete personally. I know how I feel seeing someone fall after going to the “shadow realm”..

Mike Tyson said,”Boxing is for when you have nothing,” I think the same can be applied to Francis. Hearing his story of where he came from, he is just built different! You can’t get his life experiences in any gym. This man just needed the map to the top and let him loose! So much respect for him!
Not many people compare to Francis.
He’s one of one
Francis is going to be A Legend. So inspiring read his Book I Love it. I've been a fan since he started.👏👏👏🥊🥊🏆💯🙏

Its amazing to see how technical he's become. You can't become champion by just being big and powerful. When you're big and powerful AND you have technique, then you're dangerous. That's Ngannou.
That Miocic KO wasn't even flush, it was a check hook. The ONLY, COMPLETELY brutal KO he has on his record is 'Reem. EVERYONE ELSE was a glancing blow...think about that...
NgaNO is an one trick pony. Thankfully his first cousin Ngannou took his place and became the most fearsome fighter of the division. 🔥🔥

It’s all calm just don’t be salty if/when gane gets sent to the shadow realm with stipe and rozenstruike giving him warm welcomes
It only takes one. That fact will be true for all who fight him. He has the power to lift a man off his feet into the air with an uppercut. It’s surprising he hasn’t killed His opponents with those strikes.
It will happen at some point, pretty sure they're not sending a Mazzagatti type ref in there when he's fighting tho..

@@caspernilsson5063 He's from Cameroon, dumbo
Coming back from the Tyson fight, Ngannou came a long way from throwing random punches to delivering blows with deadly precision
AJ sent him back to wakandan sand mines
He's so scary man. I got the utmost respect for anybody that steps in there... Francis possesses the power that could really Hurt you forever
I’m glad they showed the lost to stipe because it shows his improvement from then til now
Helps stipe fans cope becuase he was annihilated later
One of those losses which while embarrassing at the time, ultimately led to Francis becoming a better fighter and avenged it later on.
It shows Stipe could only take Francis the distance when Francis was inexperienced. Francis with a little more skills to his game destroyed Stipe. Francis is miles above Stipe.
Stipe makes ngannou realizes his weakness
@@GoodStuff1992we coloniazed your countrys
Nice of them to skip the fight against Lewis. We all want to forget that. Also when he said “I’m back”, he really meant it.
thought i fell asleep and missed something for a second lmao
Both of them didnt shit in that night, so it is what it is..
They also skipped the Cane Valequez fight
00
Yep, many thought Ngannou was done after the Lewis and 1st Miocic fights. So much so he was written off as a stepping stone to Curtis Blaydes who was hyped up at the time. Ultimately it was Ngannou though who not only derailed the hype train, but saved his career in the UFC and began his comeback trail to UFC gold. Couldn't be happier for him honestly.
How they said his Name at the beginning….. I could not hold it together 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
GANO
Gnuuuuuuuuuuu

Francis Ngannou is back stronger without giving up after losing his first match against Miocic. I truly respect his indomitable fighting spirit.
What an inspiring story, from pre-UFC to UFC Champion
Damn what a shame that Brian Stann quit as a commentator. He was one of the best.
That gig probably required too much time away from home I imagine
Randy Couture was a great commentator as well
Frank Mir was solid also
I hardly think he could have taken Stipe..but we’ll never know
Dan miragliotta telling jairzinho “your okay” after he got KO’d like bro he is definitely NOT okay💀

Someone stole your comment.
That kimura was so scary.
Happy that Hamilton tapped in time.
whats funny is he apparently learned it backstage that same night, didnt even know what it was called, but he's so strong he was able to do it anyway.
6:29 When you pick the most op character but you don't know the buttons yet
When he hit Overeem like that, I sincerely thought he broke his neck. That was such a powerful punch, I'm surprised it didn't take his head clean off his shoulders. That's some crazy power.
Amazingly, his total fight time from his last five comes to just 7:54 from a possible 125 minutes. That’s right. It has taken the African heavyweight less than eight minutes from a possible two hours and change to beat those guys above. We’re not talking bums here, either.
So, are we sleeping on Ngannou? Are we falling into the trap, yet again, of hopping on the hype train and getting all carried away with ourselves? While I’d hardly describe Gane as anything resembling a hype job, people are underestimating just how effective Ngannou is
I don't think anyone is sleeping on Ngannou, everyone respects his power and I think most people recognize that he seems to have increased his skillset in general, especially as shown against Stipe last time. It will be interesting to see him deal with Gane; Derrick Lewis basically had him running across the octagon in their fight, but I think Francis is a little smarter and will be able to cut him off better. Still, I feel like it can go either way if Gane can create some distance with some well-placed kicks. Either way it should be a hell of a fight.
@@viljamtheninja You are right and am not underestimating Gane either.
Gane is a phenomenal striker and something we have probably never seen before in this division. Scrap that - we have never seen anything quite like this guy. He moves like a welterweight, has a razor-sharp fight IQ, and is pretty much the blueprint for future heavyweights.
Still, I must give the edge to the champion. To say that all Ngannou has is power would be very foolish, especially if you have been paying attention over these last few years.
Since being exposed as one-dimensional by Stipe Miocic at UFC 220 in 2018, Ngannou has evaporated every fighter put in front of him. Including Miocic, who he knocked out in phenomenal fashion in 2021. The fight has all the makings of a classic and I cannot wait to see how it unfolds.
@@viljamtheninja if we gonna play MMA math and bring up lewis look how easily dos santos dealth with lewis and look what francis did to dos santos. Francis isnt some plodding fighter he has fast hands. dont forget he trained under ganes coach and knows their possible game plans. ganes camp is working on old information. BTW ganes the most unique heavy weight ive seen and is a beast but he does get hit.
Gane gets KOd in the first round.
@@whytrap4901 Mans right in my eyes, its basic striking really. What ninja doesnt understand is francis isnt going to chase Gane. He is going to plant his feet in the middle and throw straight shots to the body and straight counters to the head. He has two inches of reach on Gane, and unlike lewis he has that dangerous jab and cross. I think Gane doesnt have an answer for this and it either results in a boring fight where Gane stays too safe and Francis retains the title via a few big moments or Gane attempts to adjust like Stipe did and pays a similar price. Gane has very good clinch work, if he takes risks they could pay off but it is very very risky.
TBH that arm submission might be his most impressive win. To make a man that size look like a child in power is craziness!!!!!
He was likea man holding a teen who are fighting in the streets before police parents show up
Stipe is the only guy that ate shots, it will be interesting to see of Gane can too. Gonna be a great fight, I think Francis takes it with a left uppercut.
They all got knocked out.
The heavyweight division is so thinned out in the UFC. They need to find some more talent.
@@thatsright4194 All of the UFC is thinned out. All of the champs are good, except Charles O. and Isreala Aldesonya, but other than that there is only a few guys that can bang. Dana has an obsession with only finding fighters with undefeated records and a pretty face so he can build them up into a superstar. Haha.
Aspinall is the biggest threat to Ngannou right now, can't wait for that fight
Yeah maybe they should stop doing their talent scouting at McDonald's lol
Only just now I noticed that DC said:"When you go into the fire with Francis, you go to sleep". Knowing that Stipe is firefighter this hits different
My dude is an absolute beast, and couldn’t be a nicer guy.
Remember when Francis was contender and when the UFC was not liking Stipe as champion, now Francis is in kind of in the same situation and UFC want so badly Gane to win the tittle
Fun fact: Some months before the Francis First fight, Stipe had contract issues with the UFC. That's why Dana wanted him to lose so bad. Hope Francis shuts them up like Stipe did 4 years ago.
@@thesilencer4638 Thankfully he did

Evolution from Gannou to Ngannou
0:37
Absorbing the punches from the hardest hitting human alive is in itself a huge achievement it took one clean left hook to finally finish stipe. The problem for other ufc heavyweights is that ngannou has improved his wrestling and take down defence a lot n looks invincible
Should have Seen Stepes face after francis knocked him out in an interview after the fight. He was still in Shock.🥊😊
This guy can beat Tyson Fury
Sad that he's leaving UFC man..he could have been the greatest of all time after beating Jones..
This Francis Gunno guy seems like a hot prospect
From "Francis Nganu. to Francis Ngannou.
Just shows how much you gotta work hard for you to get recognition nowadays. 🙌🏿
That Rozenstruik one is like watching a Bear maul its prey. Absolutely horrendous. I'm genuinely surprised Rozenstruik walked away from that one..!!
After ngannou's last performance against stipe no one would believe that in his next fight, he would be the underdog.

@@Dez_MMA nah people just know what a bad matchup looks like
@@SPACECOWBOY705 how you gunna comment that long after dude was soundly defeated. 🤦
It scares me that Ngannou is a real person
That Overeem knockout is crucial😱🔥
Overeem vs Ngannou was cold 🥶
This must be my fourth or fifth time revisiting this highlight reel of knockouts of Francis uppercuts, his knockouts remind me of two things, a video game character from the early days of mortal combat, and a character I would expect to see in the undisputed combat movie series.
When he stopped Stipez takedown in the rematch I genuinely jumped up off my couch.
That’s when I knew stipe was going to heaven too🤣 cause that the only reason he won the first fight. It’s funny how no one calls him boring tho but had tht been Usman…
Alistair's knock out is one of the scariest knock out I have seen. Definitely got serious brain damage that night. That lip was absolutely disgusting too.
And you know he's going to give you that extra blow to the head after you've been knocked out too. Scary stuff.
@@Jay-bf8yp agree, Ngannou is on another level of toughness with him, and I don't know what his win-loss record BEFORE he debut in the UFC
@@Give_Me_Rent i seen a funny comment about that. someone said francis made him taller after that uppercut lol.
I was genuinely concerned for him after that. He was stiff.
This man was homeless, story of Ngannou is mindblowing
It really is ..
Good to see that the UFC still has this up. I was kind of expecting them to just have the Black Beast fight and that would be it.
"You go to the fight with nganou, you go to sleep. That’s nasty "😂😂😂
Francis just loves mashing down on peoples heads like an apple when they are on the ground.
Supernecessary 🤷🏻♂️
And he's an asshole for doing it
Yeah I hate that bs, Lewis is terrible for it too
Look at Mark hunts career on how to be a badass with a walk off KO not a thors hammer smash to a helpess stiff body
@@ryanwatterson4038 It's pretty disgusting. People say "Oh that's just fighter spirit" or "killer instinct" or "adrenaline, can't stop once he's in the zone" or whatever, as if there aren't countless examples of fighters who can clearly see when their opponents have been knocked unconscious and stop themselves from causing unnecessary damage.
It's a low i.q thing they can't shut off that fast .

That timeline is showing Ngannou's improvements as a martial artist over the years and I clearly don't see how he will lose at ufc 270. Gane is getting knocked out for sure
Bet on it 🤷♂️
@nomasporfavor this is mma not ballet, dancing around the octagon won’t tire Ngannou and at some point Ngannou will land. Why do you think that miocic had to use wrestling to beat Ngannou in the first fight. He couldn’t afford to take unnecessary hit.
@@weroliera I would bet 1k that Ngannou wins. He didn’t come this far just to lose his title when he knows what it means for him and his country.

He can be knocked out like anyone. If a foot / fist hits the chin in the right angle in this weight category, it's over, no matter who.
@@dsinemoi1mouton It's his neck. It's thick as a tree trunk, even compared to other heavyweights. The chin has nothing to do with the ability to take shots. It's the neck that keeps your head from violently twisting from hits and your brain getting whiplash.

Francis does not get enough credit for his comeback against Stipe. He did his homework from the first fight, made some good improvements and he dethroned the heavyweight champion
It pisses me off to see so many excuses made for Stipe after that fight. Not enough credit being given to Francis; too many excuses about Stipe's weight, age, how he 'looked off' and plenty of shoulda coulda woulda's to go around.
@@madgavin7568 Francis and Stipe were about the same size in both fights. This situation reminds me of Paulo Costa saying that he was slightly drunk/hungover when he got knocked out by Izzy
@@youcantstopthescout8921 I mean Francis is the bigger fighter. But at Heavyweight size doesn't always matter. If you're skilled enough, that can offset the size difference and even the playing field. Randy Couture for instance was dwarfed by Tim Sylvia, yet Randy dominated Tim from piller to post. Tim Sylvia was no joke either, he beat Andrei Arlovski after all.
Stipe fans seem to be taking the loss hard but they either down ngannou or brag about stipe's lack of defense eating shots.
I train 5 x per week and I gave a hand to some construction workers at home, it was exposed how weak I really am. A man who hauled a wheel barrow every day all day is a man ill never challenge, they're a perfect balance of strength and endurance. Francis Ngannou an ex Rock Labourer has a far greater edge than the average sport and the proof is in the putting. A lesson that I personally took is adding a wheel barrow full of bricks to my exercise routine and I can finally open bottle caps that everyone failed to open.
Well put, People don't really understand or fathom how strong Francis really is... they think Jon Jones is going to pin him and maul him... this man has strength which cannot be reached with Gym routines...
@@luciengranger2762 gym strength isn’t real strength it’s fake strength, labor / hardship and calisthenics create real strength
