UFC 270: N'Gannou vs. Gane

The official Tapology discussion thread for the event!

would love to see a Ngannou vs Wilder kickboxing match in 4oz gloves

Have you seen Wilder's legs? 

Francis isn't technical to be a boxer. Sorry. His power is the only thing he would have in boxing. He also doesn't have the gas tank to even make it. Lmao. That's a joke. And to whenever said Fury and Francis would sell , put the pipe down. Fury obliterates Francis , worse than he did Wilder. And this is boxing , you don't just get to fight the champ like you can in the UFCs new ******** "ranking system." Where you jump 10 spots for beating a top 15.

In boxing you dont need to be top 5 to get a title fight, you Just need a spot in the top 15. If Francis have a influent promoter, he only need one win againts aknockable guy like Charles Martin, Manuel Charr, Robert Helenius, Dominic breazeale and he will be in.

All those skinny leg boxer will get murdered in kick boxing or even in boxing with leg-kick or anything that not only include fist.

Lmao you think him beating any of them bums will get him a fury fight? Not even close buddy. 

Can anyone give me a reason why they're picking Alexa Grasso, I'm kinda surprise 87% of people are picking her tbh, I thought Vivi would of been favourite as I think Vivi is really talented fighter, A close split decsion lost to Chookagian is not bad, I though Chook edge it, But I was in the minorty as the majority of people thought she won, I would say, i bet if she got the decsion over Chook, She would be a heavy favourte,

I don't think a Maycee Barber win is all that impressive, Maycee Barber might be the most ******** fighter in the UFC, its a mystery how she win fight, She fight out of range throwing **** that has no chance of landing, watching her fight make me losses braincell, Alexa Grasso won, so can't discredit her, I just think it hard to give her to much praise for beating Maycee, Also Ji Yeon Kim ain't **** either

I’m with you on araujo. Grassy also has a glaring weakness against grapplers; it’s how she lost to Esparza and suarez. Now granted, they are much better wrestlers than Viviane, but she’s pretty capable herself; she’s taken down everyone she’s fought except for Montana de la Rosa, plus grasso doesn’t have outstanding tdd so I think she should be able to get this on the ground and work her grappling. She will get outstruck on the feet tho as grasso is a much better striker

I think Grasso will be fine. Her grappling and wrestling has improved a lot and she trains with Loopy. She should take this easily as her striking is levels above Viviane who also has a suspect gas tank

Francis obliterates Gane. I think everyone is over hyping Gane because of a few recent wins. He still has very little fight experience and sure he is a mobile heavy weight but Francis is fast and only needs 1 shot. I doubt that Francis is worried about Ganes power so he will definitely have a very good chance of landing the KO blow. 

Same with Moreno/Figueiredo - I think a lot of people are forgetting exactly who Figueiredo is. He will smash Moreno this fight, I think the last fight was very very sus.

Brandon Moreno coming away from that first bout with Deiveson Figueiredo is nothing more than getting away with murder. Going a full 25 minutes with a fighter who’s as dangerous as Deiveson Figueiredo and not receiving a defeat is what ultimately going to win him this Trilogy. Arguably losing (I scored it 4-1 for Deiveson Figueiredo) in the main event of UFC 256, Brandon didn’t get a hold of the belt but gained the crucial confidence knowing he can compete and even defeat Deiveson Figueiredo. The clip below proves this. We’ve seen fighters over the years in the UFC such as Conor McGregor, Francis Ngannou, Joanna Jędrzejczyk, and now Deiveson Figueiredo in that once you have chipped away at their aura they have and the fans have built up for themselves, they are very beatable. Back to the FlyW Trilogy, Brandon Moreno took the best shots from Deiveson Figueiredo and said to himself “Wow, so is that all you got ?” and took that confidence into the second bout at UFC 263 and beat Deiveson Figueiredo dominantly & decisively. Brandon Moreno has the skills to beat Deiveson Figueiredo, to be honest, he's better in all aspects of MMA than him but it’s the confidant of Brandon Moreno that is the Kryptonite of Deiveson Figueiredo. We already know Deiveson Figueiredo has a problem with making weight which is an added problem for him going into the Trilogy. Not to mention the age of these two. Brandon Moreno just turned 28 years of age whilst Deiveson Figueiredo just turned 34 years of age. Brandon Moreno beats Deiveson Figueiredo by UD at on Jan 22nd. AND STILL.

watch from19:14 to 20:20 This was the same thing Dustin said once he defeated Conor at UFC 257 once he took his best shots he wasn't scared anymore and gained confidence and took the fight to Conor. The cherry on top is in a trilogy bout the person who wins the second bout goes on to win the trilogy 75% of the time and that's facts.

Go back to boxingscenes you bum

N'Gannou


Totally agree with the N'Gannou pick. Gane's getting dropped. Was excited about Gane coming up, he moves like Tyson only to find he rarely uses it. He dips and dodges, throws a jab and dips and dodges. He is a boring fighter who uses his speed as a defense and not offense, guess smart on him save the damage but Jesus his last several fights were unbearable.  Surprised Tapology community has Gane think N'Gannou's power will be too much.

Memeing everyone who picked Gane is going to be hilarious.

I genuinely think francis will win too 

I’m so split on that fight I really have no idea who to pick 

its heavyweight bro, never be sure of the result

unless someone has no hands 

Barcelos vs Henry now moved to this card

It keep getting delayed
