Strip of all his belts give them to Francies Ngannue. Look at his facade Francies reinvedted Fury image. The same Mike Tyson would doo to his big mouth dad.😮
most athletes reach their primes in their early to mid 30's, but still Francis did something extremely impressive because he is closer to 40 and it was a new sport
From a guy who rarely comments on anything, I just have to say - Francis is just an absolute legend. How he got to where he is, how he stayed so authentic, realistic and humble. His improvements in the cage, ring, English etc etc. The guy is the people's Champ!
I believe this was the best performance under the circumstances I've ever seen. 1st boxing fight ever, vs the undefeated heavyweight champ. His range & composure was beyond impressive.
Let's not forget, this was his first boxing event not his first fight. He's been on the Big stage a few times. He's always had class , always been powerful and always had heart. How can ya not root for him, right? Although he came up short on this one, his next one should be fun. Although other fighters will now have tape to counter and trap him..

Ive been a huge fan of Francis for some time now, I'm always happy for him succeeding. From hearing his backstory, first time i saw that interview w J.Rogan i dropped what i was doing and carefully listened. He's shown resiliency, intellect, and an ability to learn and adapt with the following 1. His backstory 2. Only reason we know his backstory is because he LEARNED English... in his mid 30s and was able to describe and explain his tough childhood to us. And he's so articulate w his words....in a second language. 3. His nonchalant and stoic pov on a lot of things. 4. He learned from his first fight with Stipe and look at the second time around.... Perfect sprawl and reversal ....to the eventual brutal KO 5. He uses said wrestling against Gane with a TORN KNEE LIGAMENT (not only winning and using said techniques, but ACCEPTING the fight in the first place w that condition at the time) 6. Sticking to what he believes in and what he thinks is right, standing up to the UFC/Dana 7. Not taking the easy route like we all would by re-signing w UFC, but rather going elsewhere 8. Seeking a boxing bout with the CHAMPION (Fury) 9. Seek out proper and effective boxing training (as we saw Sat night) 10. Carrying himself with class and stoic, again throughout the buildup 11. Performing like he did Saturday night and basically winning the fight. Francis shocked the world, he shocked the elitist, pompous boxing community, but he did not shock himself. He knew what he was doing this whole time. Francis needs a movie made of him asap, and ive been saying it since i saw his interview w Rogan
Ariel, Your passion as a fan shines through some of your interviews more than others, but your joy to be talking to Francis here is so obvious and makes this interview such a treat for all of us.
I’m Cameroonian as Francis and I will tell y’all this. He comes from a certain region from Cameroon that breeds the most determined and successful humans from Cameroon. They are called the “Bami”. Every Cameroonian didn’t even doubt that Fury was in for a very very long night.
This guy has an incredible amount of raw talent. I really wished we could've gotten a Jones-Ngannou fight to really settle who's the baddest man on the planet. But Ngannou has cemented his status as a combat sport legend by getting a split decision in his professional DEBUT against the heavyweight champion of the world. Incredible story. No doubt he's a true Cameroonian hero
What a great interview, he gave me chills when talking about no regrets and his pride going back to farming for principal. I am more a UFC fan then boxing and was rooting for Francis but the way he was hitting pads made me worried. His head movements, feints, foot work, switching stances, quick, precise, good gas tank. He was speaking full sentences after with no marks. Fury was gassed and bruised/swollen. What a hero and role model. He is most definitely the baddest man on the planet for multiple reasons. Already respected him but now our great great grandchildren will be talking about him. Anyways Im going back to eating this bag of cheetos…
Objectively, this was not a serious fight! Fury was 100% unprepared! It probably justified the whole event, which many boxing experts considered a circus. Fury took huge money for Nothing and embarrassed himself and the WBC title. Ngannou is the moral winner! Ngannou has a good chin,he is a good puncher, but technically he is not even close to the top 15 players. After the euphoria, the true reality will be known!
@@SveSamShvatioFury spent twelve weeks in training camp. That's more than usual. He trained with MMA fighters like Tom Aspinal. You can't convince us he wasn't prepared. Fury also said this fight was one of his toughest in the last 10 years. So stop excuses, accept the humiliation and thank the judges and the corrupt boxing system.
What an incredibly inspirational athlete Francis Ngannou is, and what a great interviewer you are. Don't hesitate to say your dicussions create some magical moments, that went up higher and higher as time goes by
Humble? He refuses to concede that he lost, against all evidence if you look at the punch stats. The guy just didn't throw a lot of punches. I would give him a lot of credit if it weren't for that attitude.
Francis is an inspiration. You can tell he is a good guy humble ..they don't come any nicer than him..I hope this world gives him what he deserves. A true champions champion. The real rocky ..
This was a real life Rocky I moment, to go from struggling in Africa and Paris to martial arts, to being champion but still not having money, to the fallout with Dana over figher pay, to everyone doubting him, to risking it all for the bag against the baddest man on the planet, to this result! Incredible!
Honestly that's a good way to tell it, but you gotta know the guy made a few million before leaving the UFC right? He fought for the title three times, and one was a defense.
@@billyin4c514 He said he barely had enough money to train part way through his reign as champ in the ufc after 18 months off and tons of medical bills and rehab. he pulled at least 10 million for this fight, way more than he made his entire career in ufc.
28:30 "It's okay, I can't be anybody's puppet. I'm too big for that. I'm too proud for that" 👏🏼👏🏼 That's the difference between Francis and the rest of the MMA fighters. He's willing to say no to Dana
I love that and endless respect for him him but devils advocate: if the UFC wasn’t a dictatorship then we would probably end up with a similar situation to boxing where nobody fights each other. It’s a tricky one in a sport without a pre set schedule
I'll play devil's advocate too. If the only way a business can survive is to screw over it's employees maybe there's something inherently wrong with the combat sports business at it's core.
@Ariel you were one person that never ever doubted Francis decision from the Stipe fight 2, UFC, Bare knuckle, ONE championship and others. You always stood by him. Just like Izzy and Usman
@Jack-hv3uj why even attempt to bring up a sport that you think he might not be good at?? That's like hating, just for the sake of hatings sake Very sad
Francis is the man. What a guy. Against all odds pulled off an extremely close decision against the top heavyweight of the world in his boxing debut. Even if you aren't a fan, you have to give him props.
This is a special human being. So much more than a great athlete. They will make a movie of him someday and it will break box office records. God bless him and protect him.🙏
Francis must be appreciated as a global treasure. Once Francis switched to southpaw in round 2, I understood it was going to be something different that night; simply fireworks. And I hope he ends up beating Wilder and Joshua as well. Never thought much about this overrated heavyweight era in boxing where nobody is actually fighting each other and they still get credited as being goats, which is a big joke and an insult to heavyweight history. Fury's face after getting knocked down in round 3 and being bullied afterwards; Francis just became my absolute favorite MMA heavyweight champion.
I agree. He's my favorite fighter now. He is the most respectful, humble person ever. To be 272 pounds of solid muscle, and to be able to speak kindly of your you opponents the way he does. He is such a good role model. I don't know if people realize what a treasure he is, because he is setting an example for millions and millions of people; he's not once tried to make mean racial slurs, or unnecessary insults about another man's family or wife. This is completely different from other boxers (Wilder) or MMA stars like Adesanya. The strongest Human on Earth is also the nicest man on Earth, and that is good for Humanity.
Francis has made me realize that I don't really like Tyson Fury as a person or a fighter. I used to love his spiritual wisdom, but I saw him throw that clean elbow to Francis (that could have seriously hurt a normal person or cut them bad)... And I didn't believe any of the accusations about Fury with the gloves in the past, but I saw that elbow he threw, and that was reason enough to take a DQ loss. Francis would rather lose 10 fights in a row, than throw an illegal elbow to someone.
I think he beats Joshua way easier than Fury and Wilder also. I think he beats both of them. He is 275 pounds of all muscle with good footwork. Good luck with that.
Francis’s story is inspiring…great guy, incredible athlete. So humble. A true champion. Hope he continues his boxing training and moves all the way to the top.
The worst thing about this is how bad the UFC "fumbled the bag." In America it's called "fumbling the ball." There's nothing more humiliating than fumbling a football (American Football). You are thrown a perfect pass, and then you can't hold onto it, and you lose the whole game because you're clumsy and lacking concentration. The UFC was given the biggest star in the last 25 years, and they were too dumb to see the vision of Francis. He has a vision like Conor McGregor, but Francis is actually sober, not on PED's, and has cardio to complete championship fights.
I think no man in the world can legitimately beat Francis Ngannou in a straight-up fight right now. He really is the best fighter in the world. He's our Achilles.
i so love that Francis finally made Dana eat his words! Francis just made far more money in one fight than every UFC fight he ever had combined. Dana said he didn’t want hard fights. Oh really? well he just fought the best HW boxer in the world and more than held his own, knocked him down and should have won the fight
One unique thing about him.He is a fast learner.Even his English is way better.Francis is very smart and can do anything he puts his mind to.The guy is a legend!!
Francis is an amazing fighter and more importantly an amazing human being. Very chill dude with lots of emotional content and a lot of mind and soul 👍👌💯
As a massive boxing fan, it kind of pains me how much I actually like this guy. I'm always rooting for boxing, but its hard not root for Ngannou. I had mixed emotions watching an MMA fighter do that well in the ring. He didn't get the win, but he humbled Fury which was nice to see. Can't wait to see him take on more boxers.
Im completly with you. As a hardcore fan of boxing i was 100% against this ridiculous fight, this circus. But i was so happy that he kicked the ass of the clown fury. Fury thinks he is the best boxer of the world but he is soooo far from the HW legends of boxing....bravo to him !!
Inspiring “ Im not going to do what I don’t want to do cause someone else wants me too” I needed to hear that at this moment in life just to fresh my memory.
This Dude is what we need! - A true Hero this is what has been missing from Boxing for so long, especially now. People often think that rudeness and bad behaviour is the time we are in. Brother please keep your frame. your manners and respect will open so many doors for you and all peoples. - your manners and respect brother, dont change your attitude, you deserve to be at the top and you dont need to be a wronger to be a king. Maintain your morals and teachings, We stand upright! ⭐
You know what I was must shocked out. Wasnt the knock down. Wasnt the cardio. It was his discipline. He was so patient and reserved during that fight. He didnt allow the knock down to over shadow his judgement and even when he landed good blows he stayed patient and didnt over do it. His mentality as well as his physicality is just amazing.
This man is ridiculously humble and has so much self belief its inspirational he is a great role model for the younger generation. I do respect Tyson Fury everything he has done in boxing but I do believe he overlooked Francis and didnt give him respect now Francis has Tyson second guessing himself that's insane for someone who's not a boxer to do that to someone whos meant to be the best. Sometimes when you go through a lot in life it either breaks you and the demons dance with you control who you are but in Francis case his been through a lot and using it to fuel him he is taking his demons on a walk. I do truly believe he could take out most heavyweights one of the most icon things I've ever witnessed respect you legend.
I said it! UFC Lineal Champ! WBC Lineal Champ! PFL Future Champ! Salute to The Gypsy King for making this happen, congrats to both WARRIORS for a great Fight, 👊🏾🦁🦁🇨🇲🇨🇲🇳🇬🇺🇸
Almost forgot that Fury really hates fighting Southpaws - thanks to Francis for reminding us! Real champion of a man this fella (I'm not even a MMA fan).
@@YouraBadcompany I think it was close but Ngannou should have won (didn't score it), he seemed to be landing the more meaningful shots in a fight with not much activity I'd say. I always favour the classier work but if that's not apparent then you should score the round to the one forcing the action, which Ngannou was doing throughout.
The documentary on Mike Tyson's channel of him training Francis is epic. And Ngannou is one hell of an athlete. When Tyson gives him pointers, he picks it up fast.
Watch the video of Francis' s training, and you know how much hard work, and devotion this man has. Tyson worked him to the bone. Francis I never had any doubts about your abilities. Toughest, BADDEST MAN alive, and most HUMBLE. Congrads Champ.
It's not so important whether you doubted him or not. The point is you sincerely rooted for him for all the right reasons, and that's the best and most important part of humanity.
This interview needs to be seen by everyone who took interest in this fight for whatever reason. A champion for what he has to say and how he said it, makes him twice the champ!
Ngannou brought up a great point. Now before this is said, nothing taken away from Ngannou here, he performed absolutely amazing. But one of the biggest things in a boxing camp is watching footage and studying your oponent, to come uo with a gameplan. And this is one of the things Fury does great, hes very good at exposing his opponents weaknesses. He was in deep water with Francis, he had no idea what to do with Francis, he had to keep coming up with different plans on the fly. This is where the props to Ngannou comes in, because every gameplan fury tried Ngannou was able to shut down
You did it Francis ! You won, everybody knows it ! even Fury knows it. Enjoy brother, this is your time! Whole world respect you, you showed you are a true warrior !
@@joshladd5073no he didn’t he never said a winner he said when someone asked “who did u think won the fight” the reporter said Ngannou and mike said ok
Francis is a special human being. His natural prowess, determination, and most importantly a beautiful heart -- will lead to Him far surpassing his fighting carrer with future endeavors. Peace man , peace.
The most brutale knock-out in ufc history, the hardest recorded punch in ufc history, stood up for himself against the ufc machine, and has come out on top. Way to stick it to the man Champ. Long live the King
Every now and then something like this happens that reminds me why I watch fights in the first place. It's crazy that I've gotten to see three of them in the last couple years.
I like the humility of Francis, it makes a refreshing change from the usual ego talk most of the others do. I'm a huge Fury fan but this guy has won me over
"How do u think Dana White feels after sat"..........."WHO CARES!" 😂😂😂😂 That was so polite but also so savage lol, how can u not love Francis!?!?!? The people's champ 100%
Ppl can say what they want, but i love the respect and support shown to Frances from Ariel. Frances embodies the hard hat, blue collar, men of pride and family. He's inspired so many of us to stand firmly in not only our dreams but what is rightfully ours. Frances came out a winner Saturday night without a question. The French He Man has made me a fan and a believer. Que the song Ariel just made up 😅
Dude I couldn't even sleep that night no bs. I feel like I was robbed of happiness. I witnessed the impossible and the crooked judges robbed me of that
I just laughed out loud when I noticed how Francis doesn't even have a tiny scratch or nick on his face. And he claims that he took some "good punches" from Tyson Fury. A 277 pound man punched him and he doesn't have a scratch on him. I tried telling people before this fight, that there is just no way for Fury to win against Ngannou, one reason being Ngannou's durability. Ngannou is the most durable boxer fighting right now.
The people win Francies Ngannue true champion of the world special bread unique. Went through Valley of hell in life and still make it. The boxing world is run by midiocers only Francies Ngannue and Mike Tyson counts. Examin Francies Ngannue life and you know his another Muhammed Ali oppose TYRANY going to Wietnam Francies Ngannue oppose life challenges.
Even though he felt uncomfortable because of not having the experience during each round, he still fought a very smart fight. Even Fury's ILLEGAL elbow shot didn't even face him. He did get robbed. Everyone knows he WON that fight!
@@theHighPriest-lw5kb if you’re referring to Anthony Joshua, then maybe you just never seen dudes were Natalie felt like that, but if you stepped outside of stupid Valon into Africa, you would see that build is very common not all steroids and it doesn’t matter. He still floored your guy without any boxing experience to go cry about it.
Francis is the pound for pound number one heavyweight boxing champion now after his debut fight against Tyson and replaced him too bad boxing isn't a real combat sport anymore it's just good business full of scared fighters who pad there records including Tyson as you can see lol@@theHighPriest-lw5kb

How can anyone not like Francis. Such a humble guy who’s so inspiring.
Ive been a huge fan of Francis for some time now, I'm always happy for him succeeding.
From hearing his backstory, first time i saw that interview w J.Rogan i dropped what i was doing and carefully listened. He's shown resiliency, intellect, and an ability to learn and adapt with the following
1. His backstory
2. Only reason we know his backstory is because he LEARNED English... in his mid 30s and was able to describe and explain his tough childhood to us. And he's so articulate w his words....in a second language.
3. His nonchalant and stoic pov on a lot of things.
4. He learned from his first fight with Stipe and look at the second time around.... Perfect sprawl and reversal ....to the eventual brutal KO
5. He uses said wrestling against Gane with a TORN KNEE LIGAMENT (not only winning and using said techniques, but ACCEPTING the fight in the first place w that condition at the time)
6. Sticking to what he believes in and what he thinks is right, standing up to the UFC/Dana
7. Not taking the easy route like we all would by re-signing w UFC, but rather going elsewhere
8. Seeking a boxing bout with the CHAMPION (Fury)
9. Seek out proper and effective boxing training (as we saw Sat night)
10. Carrying himself with class and stoic, again throughout the buildup
11. Performing like he did Saturday night and basically winning the fight.
Francis shocked the world, he shocked the elitist, pompous boxing community, but he did not shock himself. He knew what he was doing this whole time.
Francis needs a movie made of him asap, and ive been saying it since i saw his interview w Rogan
"I can't be anyone's puppet I am too big for that" ~ Francis Ngannou 🔥
Ariel, Your passion as a fan shines through some of your interviews more than others, but your joy to be talking to Francis here is so obvious and makes this interview such a treat for all of us.
I’m Cameroonian as Francis and I will tell y’all this. He comes from a certain region from Cameroon that breeds the most determined and successful humans from Cameroon. They are called the “Bami”. Every Cameroonian didn’t even doubt that Fury was in for a very very long night.
Wékéeeeeh mon frère ne nous expose plus comme ça 😂😂😂😂
@@tchagor lol Les gars si parlent trop massa
Is Francis highly regarded in Cameroon? Or, should I say, is he a household name there?
@@tchagor😂😂 pourquoi tu rire c'est vraiment
Je dis que hein mola c'est la chimamelure
When Francis started talking about people who believed in him, I felt like he was talking directly at me.😁
This guy has an incredible amount of raw talent. I really wished we could've gotten a Jones-Ngannou fight to really settle who's the baddest man on the planet. But Ngannou has cemented his status as a combat sport legend by getting a split decision in his professional DEBUT against the heavyweight champion of the world. Incredible story. No doubt he's a true Cameroonian hero
Thank you at least yes he's a cameroonian hero only
@@ricowhoo1313 what are you yapping about
Look at his old fights and you tell me that's raw Talent that's raw swinging as hard as you can and closing your eyes
@@ricowhoo1313 the hell are you talking about? This is his first ever professional boxing match. You high or something?
There is nothing to settle.
"I don't want the fear of me falling to hold me back from fighting."- Francis Ngannou
What a great interview, he gave me chills when talking about no regrets and his pride going back to farming for principal. I am more a UFC fan then boxing and was rooting for Francis but the way he was hitting pads made me worried. His head movements, feints, foot work, switching stances, quick, precise, good gas tank. He was speaking full sentences after with no marks. Fury was gassed and bruised/swollen. What a hero and role model. He is most definitely the baddest man on the planet for multiple reasons. Already respected him but now our great great grandchildren will be talking about him. Anyways Im going back to eating this bag of cheetos…
What ever he does I am gonna support it buy it. He is a hero. He don't play the sjw or anything. A real man. No rainbow or selling out
Not taking anything away from Francis but the baddest man on the planet is still Jon Jones
Objectively, this was not a serious fight! Fury was 100% unprepared! It probably justified the whole event, which many boxing experts considered a circus. Fury took huge money for Nothing and embarrassed himself and the WBC title. Ngannou is the moral winner! Ngannou has a good chin,he is a good puncher, but technically he is not even close to the top 15 players. After the euphoria, the true reality will be known!
@@SveSamShvatioFury spent twelve weeks in training camp. That's more than usual. He trained with MMA fighters like Tom Aspinal. You can't convince us he wasn't prepared. Fury also said this fight was one of his toughest in the last 10 years. So stop excuses, accept the humiliation and thank the judges and the corrupt boxing system.
if his pad work had you worried your a casual
What an incredibly inspirational athlete Francis Ngannou is, and what a great interviewer you are. Don't hesitate to say your dicussions create some magical moments, that went up higher and higher as time goes by
if only ngannou had more experience could've got fury outta there if he cut the ring off and pressed him with body shots to open him up🫢
Such a great human being, a super athlete, a humble guy a nice guy. Definitely one of the 100 must influential people in the world right now.
Humble? He refuses to concede that he lost, against all evidence if you look at the punch stats. The guy just didn't throw a lot of punches. I would give him a lot of credit if it weren't for that attitude.
@@michaelmblog cope Michael. Your boy Fury got embarrassed! whole world knows it sadly. Oh and Francis doesn't care about your "credit" lol.
He is too nice like he is not a fighting person
Uncrowned lineal UFC and boxing champion right here folks... Living legend.
Francis is an inspiration. You can tell he is a good guy humble ..they don't come any nicer than him..I hope this world gives him what he deserves. A true champions champion. The real rocky ..
Inspiration for people to enter another country ilegally ? So are we forced to appreciate criminal offences now ? What a weird world
@@PAB86Don't be mad because you can't do anything meaningful in life 😂
@@PAB86did he commit any ethical violations. Cuz if not ur just xenophobic
This was a real life Rocky I moment, to go from struggling in Africa and Paris to martial arts, to being champion but still not having money, to the fallout with Dana over figher pay, to everyone doubting him, to risking it all for the bag against the baddest man on the planet, to this result! Incredible!
Honestly that's a good way to tell it, but you gotta know the guy made a few million before leaving the UFC right? He fought for the title three times, and one was a defense.
@@billyin4c514 He said he barely had enough money to train part way through his reign as champ in the ufc after 18 months off and tons of medical bills and rehab. he pulled at least 10 million for this fight, way more than he made his entire career in ufc.
I was thinking that today, a real life rocky.
@@billyin4c514it's different , he was fighting the champ, and after he beats uysk the
undisputed champ.
If he where to ever fight the champ again, it won't be that easy. Learn from deontay wilder
28:30 "It's okay, I can't be anybody's puppet. I'm too big for that. I'm too proud for that" 👏🏼👏🏼 That's the difference between Francis and the rest of the MMA fighters. He's willing to say no to Dana
I love that and endless respect for him him but devils advocate: if the UFC wasn’t a dictatorship then we would probably end up with a similar situation to boxing where nobody fights each other. It’s a tricky one in a sport without a pre set schedule
I'll play devil's advocate too. If the only way a business can survive is to screw over it's employees maybe there's something inherently wrong with the combat sports business at it's core.
Absolutely loved that chirp from Francis. Laughed so hard.
“I can’t be nobody puppet. I’m too big for that. IM TOO PROUD FOR THAT” salute to you brotha
@Ariel you were one person that never ever doubted Francis decision from the Stipe fight 2, UFC, Bare knuckle, ONE championship and others. You always stood by him. Just like Izzy and Usman
Quickly becoming GOATED. What a story of Francis Ngannou
He already is on the list first ufc and boxing champion
Francis is an exceptional athlete and gifted beyond belief, he would likely be able to reach the top of any sport he tried.
La Crosse, I doubt it
@@Jack-hv3ujhe meant any actual sport that people watch buddy 😂😂
MLB... for the Raiders next.😅
Tackling in LaCrosse... he be out there like George Laraque..😅.
@Jack-hv3uj why even attempt to bring up a sport that you think he might not be good at??
That's like hating, just for the sake of hatings sake
Very sad
Imagine football
Francis is the man. What a guy. Against all odds pulled off an extremely close decision against the top heavyweight of the world in his boxing debut. Even if you aren't a fan, you have to give him props.
Decision?? He destroyed fury and it's his pro debut😅. Fury looks brutally damaged
Yeah what a man he pulled off a loss
“I put my finger in the water and now I know the temperature!” - Francis Quote!
This is a special human being. So much more than a great athlete. They will make a movie of him someday and it will break box office records. God bless him and protect him.🙏
Francis must be appreciated as a global treasure. Once Francis switched to southpaw in round 2, I understood it was going to be something different that night; simply fireworks. And I hope he ends up beating Wilder and Joshua as well. Never thought much about this overrated heavyweight era in boxing where nobody is actually fighting each other and they still get credited as being goats, which is a big joke and an insult to heavyweight history. Fury's face after getting knocked down in round 3 and being bullied afterwards; Francis just became my absolute favorite MMA heavyweight champion.
I agree. He's my favorite fighter now. He is the most respectful, humble person ever. To be 272 pounds of solid muscle, and to be able to speak kindly of your you opponents the way he does. He is such a good role model. I don't know if people realize what a treasure he is, because he is setting an example for millions and millions of people; he's not once tried to make mean racial slurs, or unnecessary insults about another man's family or wife. This is completely different from other boxers (Wilder) or MMA stars like Adesanya. The strongest Human on Earth is also the nicest man on Earth, and that is good for Humanity.
FRANCIS IS OFFICIALLY KING OF THE WORLD. BEST MMA FIGHTER AND BEST BOXER. HE CAN BEAT ANY MAN ON EARTH. LEGEND 🤴
Francis has made me realize that I don't really like Tyson Fury as a person or a fighter. I used to love his spiritual wisdom, but I saw him throw that clean elbow to Francis (that could have seriously hurt a normal person or cut them bad)... And I didn't believe any of the accusations about Fury with the gloves in the past, but I saw that elbow he threw, and that was reason enough to take a DQ loss. Francis would rather lose 10 fights in a row, than throw an illegal elbow to someone.
I think he beats Joshua way easier than Fury and Wilder also. I think he beats both of them. He is 275 pounds of all muscle with good footwork. Good luck with that.
@@starseeddeluxeWhy? Fury gave him the credit he deserves.
Francis’s story is inspiring…great guy, incredible athlete. So humble. A true champion. Hope he continues his boxing training and moves all the way to the top.
He is a lot of things, but humble he is definitely not.
@@danielreigdiaz1373
How so?
Never have I wanted an MMA fighter to succeed so bad.
Last week you commented he fumbled the bag
inceI backtracking . said he fumbled the bag last week 😭😂😂😂
ince| jumping bandwagons every week lmai
@@beaualoevwbro your pic 😂
The worst thing about this is how bad the UFC "fumbled the bag." In America it's called "fumbling the ball." There's nothing more humiliating than fumbling a football (American Football). You are thrown a perfect pass, and then you can't hold onto it, and you lose the whole game because you're clumsy and lacking concentration. The UFC was given the biggest star in the last 25 years, and they were too dumb to see the vision of Francis. He has a vision like Conor McGregor, but Francis is actually sober, not on PED's, and has cardio to complete championship fights.
I think no man in the world can legitimately beat Francis Ngannou in a straight-up fight right now. He really is the best fighter in the world. He's our Achilles.
Jon Jones?
Francis over Jones. You can see what he’s capable of when people doubt him.
he just did looze
@@maureenpether5265 Right. Because an actual fight doesn't allow takedowns, and kicks like in Boxing too.
He is so likeable. He won on so many level
If Fury beats usyk, gets all the belts, in the mean time Francis goes get the PFL belt. Beats Fury in the rematch he'll be the greatest story ever!!!
i so love that Francis finally made Dana eat his words! Francis just made far more money in one fight than every UFC fight he ever had combined. Dana said he didn’t want hard fights. Oh really? well he just fought the best HW boxer in the world and more than held his own, knocked him down and should have won the fight
Even his English and how he conducts him self since we heard him on the show last is incredible. What a man
This man is the only thing that makes me happy with life right now
😂😂We are all just so happy for him. God created hope for a reason. Francis has shown us the power of hope!
You got a major problem in life buddy
Stay strong homie
@@ricowhoo1313 Francis BBC is the only thing that makes him happy
and he lost.
One unique thing about him.He is a fast learner.Even his English is way better.Francis is very smart and can do anything he puts his mind to.The guy is a legend!!
Look at this man! Look at what he had to overcome to get here! Don't you ever sulk about your life again and get up and chase your dream.
Francis is an amazing fighter and more importantly an amazing human being. Very chill dude with lots of emotional content and a lot of mind and soul 👍👌💯
As a massive boxing fan, it kind of pains me how much I actually like this guy. I'm always rooting for boxing, but its hard not root for Ngannou. I had mixed emotions watching an MMA fighter do that well in the ring. He didn't get the win, but he humbled Fury which was nice to see. Can't wait to see him take on more boxers.
He's always wanted boxing
It pains you to like one of the most likeable athletes in history?
Im completly with you. As a hardcore fan of boxing i was 100% against this ridiculous fight, this circus. But i was so happy that he kicked the ass of the clown fury. Fury thinks he is the best boxer of the world but he is soooo far from the HW legends of boxing....bravo to him !!
u know francis comes from a boxing background when he first started fighting in france?😊
He prove against fury that he is a great boxer. You are rooting for a boxer, as well as an mma practioner. Ngannou is just a fighter and a great one.
Francis is so well spoken in english for someone who has it as their 3rd / 4th language
The fact that Ngannou isn't throwing a crazy celebration is a god thing imo. Even though he deserves it, no doubt. But he's humble and life moves on.
Inspiring “ Im not going to do what I don’t want to do cause someone else wants me too” I needed to hear that at this moment in life just to fresh my memory.
Absolutely 💯
Did your boss tell you to take out the trash to the dumpster and you decided you were gonna stick it to him ?
@@SonOftheBattleCry Elaborate 🙏🏼👏🏽
Ngannou is an all time great. I can't think of a more inspirational figure in our time than him
All time great on boxing debut
All time Great of Boxing after this 1 fight.
This Dude is what we need! - A true Hero this is what has been missing from Boxing for so long, especially now. People often think that rudeness and bad behaviour is the time we are in. Brother please keep your frame. your manners and respect will open so many doors for you and all peoples. - your manners and respect brother, dont change your attitude, you deserve to be at the top and you dont need to be a wronger to be a king. Maintain your morals and teachings, We stand upright! ⭐
Yes, the whole world is behind Francis for his down earth and humbled attitude.
You're kidding right
You know what I was must shocked out. Wasnt the knock down. Wasnt the cardio. It was his discipline. He was so patient and reserved during that fight. He didnt allow the knock down to over shadow his judgement and even when he landed good blows he stayed patient and didnt over do it. His mentality as well as his physicality is just amazing.
he hardly landed any really
This man is ridiculously humble and has so much self belief its inspirational he is a great role model for the younger generation. I do respect Tyson Fury everything he has done in boxing but I do believe he overlooked Francis and didnt give him respect now Francis has Tyson second guessing himself that's insane for someone who's not a boxer to do that to someone whos meant to be the best. Sometimes when you go through a lot in life it either breaks you and the demons dance with you control who you are but in Francis case his been through a lot and using it to fuel him he is taking his demons on a walk. I do truly believe he could take out most heavyweights one of the most icon things I've ever witnessed respect you legend.
I said it!
UFC Lineal Champ!
WBC Lineal Champ!
PFL Future Champ!
Salute to The Gypsy King for making this happen, congrats to both WARRIORS for a great Fight, 👊🏾🦁🦁🇨🇲🇨🇲🇳🇬🇺🇸
Triple champ status on the way
Almost forgot that Fury really hates fighting Southpaws - thanks to Francis for reminding us! Real champion of a man this fella (I'm not even a MMA fan).
Haaa If I remember correctly fury switched to South Paw first.
I'm curious what your opinion on the fight was a more of a boxing fan. Do you think fury did enough to win within the rules?
Ngannou won that fight end of 😮😊
@@YouraBadcompany I think it was close but Ngannou should have won (didn't score it), he seemed to be landing the more meaningful shots in a fight with not much activity I'd say. I always favour the classier work but if that's not apparent then you should score the round to the one forcing the action, which Ngannou was doing throughout.
N’Gannou fought out of the southpaw stance ably. Uncanny for a first time
Boxer.
The documentary on Mike Tyson's channel of him training Francis is epic. And Ngannou is one hell of an athlete. When Tyson gives him pointers, he picks it up fast.
I remember Francis doing the same step in jab mike was showing him in that preflight doc
TRUE STUDENT OF THE ARTS! AND MASTER OF THE ARTS!
Mike's the new Cuss!@@mmamultiverse75
I think he can definitely learn and improve even more as far as boxing goes
The best fighters pick up fast. I remember Adesanya throwing a kick technique against Silva, that Silva threw earlier on in the fight
Francis is the biggest Personality in the last 20 years of Combat Sports. I love this Guy.
I’m a Tyson fan but Francis you have a new fan here my friend . What a gentleman too
Im a huge Tyson Fury fan , but Francis won that fight , by alot. He blew me awat with how GREAT he was. What an ispiration. Tremendous job !
glad that there is still honest people like you my friend
By a lot is crazy
Watch the video of Francis' s training, and you know how much hard work, and devotion this man has. Tyson worked him to the bone. Francis I never had any doubts about your abilities. Toughest, BADDEST MAN alive, and most HUMBLE. Congrads Champ.
It's not so important whether you doubted him or not. The point is you sincerely rooted for him for all the right reasons, and that's the best and most important part of humanity.
True.
This interview needs to be seen by everyone who took interest in this fight for whatever reason. A champion for what he has to say and how he said it, makes him twice the champ!
Ngannou brought up a great point. Now before this is said, nothing taken away from Ngannou here, he performed absolutely amazing. But one of the biggest things in a boxing camp is watching footage and studying your oponent, to come uo with a gameplan. And this is one of the things Fury does great, hes very good at exposing his opponents weaknesses. He was in deep water with Francis, he had no idea what to do with Francis, he had to keep coming up with different plans on the fly. This is where the props to Ngannou comes in, because every gameplan fury tried Ngannou was able to shut down
You did it Francis ! You won, everybody knows it ! even Fury knows it. Enjoy brother, this is your time! Whole world respect you, you showed you are a true warrior !

Fury won on points in accordance with the rules. Having said that, it was really ugly and Fury is pretty much finished.
Francis est une source d'inspiration et de motivation pour tout le monde. Tout simplement incroyable
Francis is a special human being. His natural prowess, determination, and most importantly a beautiful heart -- will lead to Him far surpassing his fighting carrer with future endeavors. Peace man , peace.
His comment about not letting haters change you, because nothing you do will change them...wise words.
The most brutale knock-out in ufc history, the hardest recorded punch in ufc history, stood up for himself against the ufc machine, and has come out on top. Way to stick it to the man Champ.

I like the humility of Francis, it makes a refreshing change from the usual ego talk most of the others do. I'm a huge Fury fan but this guy has won me over
As many non-MMA viewers,I thought, "Francis Ngannou? Who?"
Now, we know. What an admirable gentleman, so strong within and wise.
"Always do you, and let haters do them, they'll always do them" Love it! Great champ!
"How do u think Dana White feels after sat"..........."WHO CARES!" 😂😂😂😂 That was so polite but also so savage lol, how can u not love Francis!?!?!? The people's champ 100%
Ppl can say what they want, but i love the respect and support shown to Frances from Ariel. Frances embodies the hard hat, blue collar, men of pride and family. He's inspired so many of us to stand firmly in not only our dreams but what is rightfully ours. Frances came out a winner Saturday night without a question. The French He Man has made me a fan and a believer. Que the song Ariel just made up 😅
Francis is just a walking W.!!!!
So happy for him, for us as mma fans, he really risked everything and I hope it pays off more and more.!!!
Francis presents as a man of great power and even greater honor and INTEGRITY! Francis is a man's man 100%. Blessed.

Dude I couldn't even sleep that night no bs. I feel like I was robbed of happiness. I witnessed the impossible and the crooked judges robbed me of that
I just laughed out loud when I noticed how Francis doesn't even have a tiny scratch or nick on his face. And he claims that he took some "good punches" from Tyson Fury. A 277 pound man punched him and he doesn't have a scratch on him. I tried telling people before this fight, that there is just no way for Fury to win against Ngannou, one reason being Ngannou's durability. Ngannou is the most durable boxer fighting right now.
@@starseeddeluxe Francis chin is not talked about enough. His neck is thicker than a lot of people’s waistline

Even though he felt uncomfortable because of not having the experience during each round, he still fought a very smart fight. Even Fury's ILLEGAL elbow shot didn't even face him. He did get robbed. Everyone knows he WON that fight!
