Hope Francis take is time because Renan Ferreira hit like a monster to and it will be hard to take those shot rigth after a huge KO like this.

@Mav58 
training boxing for one session a day does not compare to boxer who do it 3 times a day. Mma fighters train , boxing , kickboxing, Muay Thai, wrestling, Jiujitsu, and grappling against the cage, they can’t really be compared to boxers. Many fighters like Stephen Thompson talked about training with boxers and they either say they’re too slick to hit or they punch like no other, he trained/spared with Adonis Stevenson and said till this day no one punched him so hard that his bones were radiating. Boxers just hit different

Up to now Francis was this untouchable giant.  Last time Francis came off a loss, he was so different. Very timid. This is a bad KO to come back from. Renan will be rubbing his hands..

This is the exact thing ufc would’ve hated to happen if they agreed to ngannou boxing, should’ve just went back to mma after the fury fight

I can't choose between feeling bad because I like Francis or celebrating because his sycophants are grating

****, he had no chance. I don't think he did anything in that fight, and to cap it off that was a BRUTAL knockout, and you really can't take much of those. Jebus.

Anyone who is a NGannou fan does not need to feel bad about this. He just banked a bigger payday than basically anyone in MMA other than Conor.
