Nah, Francis would just end up like Gane. Maybe even worse since Francis is not even a technical fighter. He has zero ground game and just has power in his hands, which is enough to dominate most of the heavyweight division but not Jon Jones.

@@LambSauceWill Number one: I don’t need an argument. Knowing that barring any miracle shot Jon Jones completely dominates Francis Ngannou in a fight is f’n obvious.

This is even worse than the hype they did saying a semi retired McGregor would defeat Khabib. It’s nonsense but sells PPVs.
@@maxk880I think that isn’t a real problem. Most people that are casual fans don’t even know what the PFL is. MMA is the UFC to most of the world. Anyone who really cares knows that Francis left because of a contract dispute mostly. And one UFC champion losing to an outsider wouldn’t taint the UFC much. It happened a lot back in the day when guys weren’t bound to one promotion as much. Pat Miletich would defend at 170 then go to another promotion and lose, BJ Penn did the same thing. Chuck lost the Pride tournament against Rampage, etc.. Everyone knows that the UFC has the best talent by far.
@ShadowDeltaSF I mean, it's common sense. The ufc is the most watched, and their fighters make more so every fighter would eventually want to end his /her career there. Also, most fighters grew up watching ufc legends, which would also draw them to the ufc.
Francis repeating, "it's possible" after Rogan whispers, "thats what i want," is one of the things that made me laugh way too hard for something that really isn't particularly funny 🤷
And Rogan makes fights. He made Islam Vs Oliveira. And I think he wanted to see what's the best grappling now that is known that grappling beats striking. I think here he wants to see how much power compensates for relative lack of skill esp in the premier fight division - HW. Definitely a fight to see for fight fans
That fight does over 1.5 million buys if promoted right. This will likely be Jon jones very last fight and an end to an amazing career. If Francis KO’s tyson or beat tyson in general, his star goes to the VERY TOP. If he KO’s jones, he’s the biggest combat sports athlete in the world.
@@ItsReplayBroDo you truely believe Ngannou could beat Fury? Smart money says he has no chance and if a miracle transpired and he he then fought Jones, hed be quickly handled.
Francis is so calm and composed. His voice is so soothing especially with that accent. He's one amazing human being! Him and Jones would be the most hyped match of all time.
@@michealortiz3350Ngannou lifted Overeem off the canvas with an uppercut, dude... a few KO's may come close in brutality but that one... damn, that was nasty.
Jones being the Unmovable object as he has been in the fight game for years. Ngannou fists are the unstoppable force. Block his ko shot with your arms if you want they both would get broke before your jaw does
@kdogg8736 they each have 1 win a piece over each other. Francis was on top when he left the ufc , a very dominant champion . And Francis had the current win over stipe . There is no doubt that Jones is the goat . But nganou and Jones would have been a better fight, in my opinion
Lol miocic ragdolled ngannou in the first match if that was jones he would have finished francis there's levels to this shit a one trick pony isn't beating jones..jones would oblique kick the shit out of him till his legs fucked up then take him down and submit him or finish him with strikes
The UFC once sent Chuck Liddel to fight the stars in PRIDE. They could absolutely do this if they wanted to, bit they're scared as shit of the consequences if they agree.
That deal is WHY the UFC wouldnt. Chuck got beat AND Pride didnt hold up their side of the offer and ok another fight that was agreed upon Dana got burned and never did it again
Francis Prime vs Jones Prime would be on of the best matches we could ever see. Unfortunately, they are not in their prime... but they arent neither in a bad shape so it could be also amazing
What is Francis then? He literally just won the HW championship like 2 fights ago lol Francis is IN his prime, Jones is at the end of his career, And what's wild is i still see Jon winning if they fought.
@@butterschunkmcdonalds5333 He is 37 years old, he cant be on his prime. But yes, Maybe he is more near from his prime than Jones and, despite of that, I would say Jones would win
The ufc would never allow it. Dana will trash ngannou and celebrate jones as the goat... Even though jones only beat worse versions of gane and stipe AFTER ngannou already whooped em both years earlier.
I dont think so bro. They both are formidable fighters. Besides oftentimes the gap between Jones and his greatest foes is very slim. You guys make it seem like he is a god or something
His performance against Fury has opened up so much opportunity and generated crazy buzz. He might be worth more than the contract he signed with the PFL because of that. Him vs anyone is the top fight at this point. What other heavyweight fight is more interesting than him vs. Anyone rn?
After Jones win Stipe fight then there is still a little bit possibity that this fight will happen and Francis cannot take those flying knees,spinning elbows,head kicks ,back kicks ,side kicks and grapples by Jones
PFL will probably make the fight go through their organization, not the UFC. That said it would be way huger in the UFC. It's just they would lose Francis but they're probably not worried because the UFC would have to buy out his contract. Dana would not make this fight for that specific reason unless like everyone else no one expects Francis to win. I don't expect Francis to win but I didn't expect Strickland to win and guess what 👀 Not likely BUT 🤷
He was already confirmed to come back before Francis vacated the belt through. I'm a fan of joth and I'd love to see that fight. In all honesty the reason it didn't happen is because of Dana.
And Jones has even said that he and Dana do not have a good relationship. I would love to see the PFL sign Jones for a 1 fight, massive $$$ deal.

@@JustinDeep-op1ix How ? I have never seen him doing spinning kicks,back kicks,spinning elbows ,Jump kick and flying knee like Jon if there are some clips of Francis doing these things then send those to me and remember Jones these were effective in a fight .
You must be smoking your socks son😅 Jones will do anything to avoid this fight. Ask him You have no idea where Ngannou has come from and what he has been through, Jon Jones can fight the dirtiest fight of he's life and he will still lose.
Man I could imagine the heat and hype that would bring if Francis wins the UFC HW belt and takes it back to PFL. Reminds me of the old WWF/WCW/ECW invasion days.
Dana gotta let this fight happen for the fans but because he always put the amount of money he’s gonna make first and grudges against fighters who become bigger than the UFC, he may not let it happen.
At that point, I would say, fight and win for the Glory of it and be on the UFC hall of fame wall. It would put to rest that indeed Francis Ngannou is the GOAT. Better yet, as Nganmou said, let it be a special belt fight and become a floating CHAMPION with UFC. I love the sound of this

Pretty sure he just dropped out of that

He won’t beat either
If it ever happens it sounds like a UFC problem since they shouldn’t have let Francis go in the first place.

Not problem, he I believe was the most lethal Heavyweight fighter ever during that time
That upper cut is a straight business class ticket to hell😂
Bigger than the belt itself fight
Holds true for any fighter going against Jon Jones
If Francis keeps hitting Jon with clean shots it’s over but if Jon can either go the distance or make it go to the floor it’s over
jon jones is the goat for a reason he aint gonna lose to this deff noo
Jones can't bully Ngannou like he did with Gane and he knows it, one clean shot and he wakes up in ICU
Jones won't be able to power him into submission or ground and pound. He will either knowledge him out it goes the distance
