They are talking about having an Mma fight. Wilder has been training mma for a while.

[@brianmcguire5175]

Two earnest and sincere points of inquiry for paingain to respond to if he should read this and feel a wish to respond to! Here goes: 1. Does AJ look like a far better prospect to win against Tyson Fury after what you've observed from the Ngannou bout? I think AJ has enough similarities to Ngannou in build and in some aspects of style that Ngannou may have inadvertently exposed a clear pathway to victory for AJ and his camp to train for should a bout with Fury ever come to fruition. Do you agree? What are your thoughts, I think it would be interesting to hear your commentary on that. 2ndly and lastly, you seem to focus your commentary on the Fury Ngannou fight with a singular ,and in my opinion 2dimensional, focus on critique of Tyson's seeming failures in this performance but it is worth putting the shoe on the other foot is it not? What I mean is, I'll try explain my point of question, anyone who has ever trained in a boxing gym and has done ring work of some kind will have experienced and be familiar with the on and off days. Not just personally but also have seen the best in that gym have trouble at times. I think you know about this yourself even in your own training experience . Fury was exposed as human for the first time in a long time and considering his challenge he then had to over come in his own mind I think he showed great championship level fortitude. Did he win? I'm not asking about that. Did he fail as bad as you outline in your video? I don't think so with all things considered. With my point about Tyson having to battle himself in that ring, would you agree or concede any? If pain gain doesn't answer this I don't mind, overall I love this channel and the debate it sparks and encourages. With that in mind, anyone else reading this please share your thoughts with me and respond. I'm here to test my notions . If nothing else. Inspired by this channel and it's content

Francis was concerned about whether his stamina would hold up for 10 rounds. He was thinking about rounds 8 and 9 in the 2nd. Now he knows he can do it, like in the gym, he'll go for it more in the early rounds. He's shown in mma a really good ability to learn and improve.

[@Addi_Teacha509]

If he improves in boxing like he did in mma, he can be the champ for real

[@kiabtoomlauj6249]

That last feature about Ngannou is what most people, from the street experts to the professional experts, don't understand: Ngannou is able to absorb information and adapt quickly. Notice how inept and hapless he was, in his first Stipe fight, with the elite wrestler and boxer using Ngannou power and size to get him to the mat easily... and, then, in the second fight, Ngannou TOOK Stipe down and got to the elite wrestler back so confidently? and then KOed him via punching a bit later? People see his muscles and think that's all Ngannou has. But inside, the dude is an extraordinary athletic; he may not be the most elite boxer or mma guy; but he learns the basics so quickly and, so, with his outlier PHYSICALITY, he could do many things (from one fight to the next) most other guys, even elite specialists, can't easily match, even given a much longer period of time to do it...

[@truthteller9834]

​@kiabtoomlauj6249 extremely well said! And his life in general has been a huge test of adversity and patience. He is an extremely calculated man because he has had to be since day one! I always loved Ngannou, but after hearing his story on Joe Rogan my respect went up for him ten fold. He has been through hell and back, then became one of the best in combat sports!

[@hithere9393]

Ngannou showed better defence than Wilder in just one fight, and a better chin. Not to mention he's way stronger in the clinch. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw an upset here.

[@RelaxingMusic-js2ct]

Wilder would knock his lights out with a wild swing

[@joshormerod5382]

I'm in no way discrediting Ngannou but styles well and truly make fights. Wilder presents a completely different threat and he isn't the kind of guy who is intimidated by losing rounds, he will swing until the end. Beating Fury doesn't automatically mean you beat other top heavyweights. More than happy to watch Ngannou box again though.

[@FranciscoMartinez-369]

This guy speaks pure facts. Tired of people making excuses. How can this man be compared to Ali or any of the greats. To compare to them you need to fight actual people who could fight back and are in the top ten. Not cherry picking fights. Boxing really needs to remember its a fight and not a pageant show. To claim to be the best, you need to fight the best only and show the world that you earned that title.

[@ezumach]

Fury is the most overrated boxer of all time. He has beaten nobody except for Wilder.

[@jessemacaspac443]

Agreed. I really hate these “but the scorecard” and punching stat arguments. There are no judges or scorecards in a fight these arguments are ridiculous. Too many people give way to these things rather than see the skill in the ring and how well fighters are giving and taking punishment. The difference is also that boxing is a combat sport, that also teaches self defense.

Something that is not talked about enough imo is Dana and his minions attempts to bury the legacy of Mighty Mouse, the man made an entire career out of embarrassing his opponents to the point where the division felt talentless (which it wasn't obviously) and Dana turned around and said he isn't marketable. So happy to see him thrive in One, hopefully they can keep growing and really put pressure on the UFC

[@allthingslegends]

It’s crazy that he’s not even mentioned in Goat conversations among most fans, simply because the hype wasn’t there during his era, more so his last 2 title defenses and by then it was two late

@@joshuaw9675 Both of y’all are missing the fact that he went on to beat the guy you guys are talking about (Adriano Moraes) in similar fashion and did it again in the trilogy to end the rivalry.

The most dangerous things about Francis Ngannou are his abilities to learn and adjust. Although he’s an elite MMA fighter, he’s still a novice at boxing which only means his ability to learn will help him adjust a lot quicker than most people can. He’s gonna be a terrifying opponent if he gets back in the ring!

[@dopemusic6414]

The Francis saga has taught me a powerful lesson: people's opinions can be incredibly fickle. It's essential not to be swayed by the ever-changing outside chatter. As long as you remain steadfast in your convictions and understand your reasons and purpose, you'll find strength in not succumbing to the shifting tides of public opinion. Just look at how everyone's love for Francis has replaced the support for Dana, illustrating the capricious nature of public sentiment over the past few months.

[@orcanimal]

100% right about Dana. He wants the UFC to be the product people watch, not the individual fighters. But it's the NFL. People watch for the fighters, not the teams/Gyms they fight from.

[@StandUpGill]

Dana white is a shoe. belongs under our feet for his disrespect of people if he can't profit from them. he shows no support or respect. Great call out in this podcast.

[@raul5081]

Don't give him ideas... if they start promoting gyms, even slightly, we might get used to the idea of supporting a gym, and once that becomes the norm... But I doubt it will happen. During Pride, there was a legit beef between 2 Brazilian gyms: Brazilian Top Team (BTT) and Chute Boxe. BTT had Belfort, Nogueira brothers, Arona etc, Chute Boxe had Wanderlei, Shogun etc. It was interesting to follow the rivalry but even that wasn't enough to make fans want to follow a gym and not a fighter. I think Dana knows this so he just wants to be WWE. WWE is so massive that even when the best wrestlers in the world were not part of the company, the people still saw WWE as the pinnacle of wrestling. UFC is already so big that fans won't take champs from other promotions seriously, which it's a shame.

[@orcanimal]

@@raul5081lol. That ain't gonna happen. How do I know? 'cause they already tried that and it failed miserably. The fact that you didn't even know that shows how bad it failed. People can root for teams when it's a team game. But fighting is a 1v1 sport. People won't just not root for teams, they won't even root for organizations. They'll only root for "players", i.e. fighters. That's why Dana is so dumb, 'cause he fails to understand that if he makes the fighters bigger, yeah he'll have to pay them more, but he'll also make the sport bigger as a result. Conor, like him or hate him, elevated the sport to a whole new public level that benefited not only the UFC but fighters that became popular after Conor. Every big start does the same. Dana is a scumbag who's been gifted wealth by the Fertitta brothers, plain and simple.

[@btechninja4952]

You have gained a new subscriber. Great analysis. Francis deserves all the respect in the combat sport for what he achieved for himself and the way he inspired the fighters and normal people.

Francis life must be taught at schools.

There was talk about having a 2 fight deal the first one in boxing and the second one in the cage a few months ago. I think both fighters are still game for that.

[@giacalonebuilding4443]

Supposedly wilder has been training mma very seriously for a year plus. He has the athleticism to excel and the great equalizer in his KO power. Idk his background but if he has any High school wrestling background I could easily see him doing pretty well against a lot of the guys in that top 6-20 range. Against a Jon jones or even a Curtis blades type guy though I don’t think he has a chance without minimum 5 years training and even then idk. Wrestling is not like boxing where you can crossover in short time and succeed. Nobody is beating David Taylor’s and the Jordan boroughs outside of other world class guys with 15 years on the mats

After Fury vs Ngannou, I'm 100% confident that Ngannou would beat Whyte in boxing too. In mma it would be a blood bath. Francis would ground & pound him. Dillian Whyte had a kickboxing match against some bum a long time ago. The lowest ranked heavyweight in the UFC would beat him. A guy like Ngannou, Stipe, Aspinall etc would send any heavyweight boxer to hospital. MMA >>>> boxing

[@soapsportsnews5727]

@@45wasright43 I think Whyte smothers Francis in a boxing ring. Whyte definitely gets smashed in a cage though lol.. Every heavyweight boxer gets smashed in a cage against Francis..😂 Also Whyte was a British and European super heavyweight champion in kickboxing.. He didn't just 'have a fight against some bum'😂 His record was 20-1 in kickboxing.

[@kennymcewan7281]

Your right Brian but a think tyson never took it seriously and he got hammered as for that elbow that was deliberate

[@jeffhames7316]

Great video and commentary. I agree with everything you said

[@jjsavior]

Lets just remind people. White had no issues letting the irishman get a huge payday. But for some reason didnt even want francis to get in the ring. Francis did 100% better than McGregor did against Mayweather 100 times better. Mcgregor actually tried to talk down Francis' performance like he was big brothering him when the man just did way better than you did. But you got much more money for it. If francis had the full support of the ufc, his payday for this fight would have been HUGE. Now he has to get that huge pay-day on his own. And he will.

[@sidgeaberration]

This is better for Francis. The UFC took half of McGregors purse. They'd have probably taken more of Francis's.

[@jfedererj]

It's absolute BS to leap to the conclusion that AJ is the one avoiding Wilder, if Wilder fights Ngannou. Why not Wilder thinks, "why mess around with AJ when I can earn just as much $ taking a simpler fight vs Francis?".

[@deadlyx]

we all know aj dont want smoke with wilder. if you notice even when he beat helenius every person from the uk said he need another fight before wilder. Alot of people are not even sure if aj wins against wilder. Only person that think he winning is his crazy fans and eddie. Every week eddie said the fight going to happen and it never happen. Dont be in denial like these other dudes on youtube.

[@Stocks_IronMan]

Hahaha, keep them coming Geordie! These analysis are dope! I have been somewhat a Fury fan, but the things you say are true. Loving the content here

[@Tchafsir]

Another wonderful video by TG

[@paulkirby2761]

Question. Do we think Fury went into the Francis fight so heavy(278lbs) specifically to try and counter Francis(272lbs of pure muscle), or more looking ahead to what he planned to bring into the Usyk fight once he quickly dispatched "easy fight" Francis? Or do you just think Fury's gone fat and lazy, too used to the good life, other distractions and not focused or training on boxing like he should be? Of course, he'll never tell you himself so we have to speculate.

[@roarblast7332]

Fury is absolutely lazy. You can actually see regression in his technique ever single fight past wilder 2. Wilder 2. Was the last time he learned anything new. He then immediately regressed. He's lazy.

[@EternaITruths]

This is pathetic how all the top HWs are avoiding each other, I have to give AJ credit because at least he fought Usyk and gave it his best.

[@agnikaineverdies7646]

But now Aj is ducking Wilder

[@EternaITruths]

@@agnikaineverdies7646 AJ is the only one who has actually taken risks, especially with short notice fights. Wilder only fought Fury because he thought he was way passed it and there was nothing to lose for Fury. AJs resume is way better than both of them, I don’t even like him either but it’s the truth.

[@agnikaineverdies7646]

@@EternaITruths, you’ve just ignored the point I made, Aj is ducking Wilder after saying Wilder was never an elite fighter, Aj is among the heavyweights avoiding challenges, and taking the Usyk fight wasn’t seen as a big risk, Usyk had just come of an unimpressive performance to Chisora where many people felt Chisora won, most people didn’t give usyk a chance of beating Joshua, Aj took the fight thinking it was an easy win and it backfired then Aj had to take the rematch because it was his only chance of getting the belts back. And Aj having the best resume is a myth, the best fighter he ever beat was klitschko who fury also beat, and wilder is better than every other name on AJ’s resume and Fury beat him 3 times, Fury has a better resume based on quality, Aj just has quantity, there isn’t a single fighter on AJ’s resume that you wouldn’t expect Fury to beat but the reverse can’t be said because most people favor Wilder to chin Aj

[@EternaITruths]

@@agnikaineverdies7646 yeah… you don’t know boxing. AJ has the best resume, Wilder sucks and has beaten nobody.

[@hannes5388]

Crazy that before Saturday everyone thought Francis would get whooped easily and now there is a real argument that he could beat every top heavyweight with the right game plan. Crazy world we live in

[@lf67hh28]

I mean, I don't think that's a feasible conversation. Most heavyweights would dispatch Francis, Fury simply never trained and came in 30lbs overweight (and still got the W).

[@hannes5388]

@@lf67hh28sorry bro but this is absolute coping. A guy with that much more experience should have easily beat Francis even on his worst night. Tyson also said that he prepared 12 weeks sooo 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@AmadouBamba-ov8sx]

You just said what was in my mind

[@lf67hh28]

@hannes5388 Tyson also said he was in shape for Usyk, he trained for 3 weeks for this fight. 😂 He did best him easily enough, more punches, higher connectivity, won more rounds. It doesn't get much simpler really.

[@hannes5388]

[@rorykeating5973]

[@joblakelisbon]

Keep pouring on mate. Great to see someone other than Francis put it on Fury and Dana. Love it.

[@paulkirby2761]

A fight with any combinations of Wilder, AJ and Francis and we're in for a real entertaining treat. In fact you can add big bang Zhang into that pot too. Any of those 4 guys fighting each other is going to sell big and highly entertaining with a spectacular end no matter which are paired up. Personally I'd LOVE to see all of those fights and feel they'd be far more entertaining than Fury v Usyk.

[@inevitablechange2670]

Francis just beat Tyson fury’s ass. I don’t think he’s touchable

[@Jason-gq8fo]

You always go against Aj when you could also say wilder is running to the mma fighter rather than fight Aj, don’t forget it was wilder who ducked Aj the first time

[@NeverSober8008]

Yes although if they throw a bunch of cash on the table to fight someone who is 0-1 in Boxing and if he wins then he gets to say he looked better against an opponent that made Fury look bad then it would probably hard for him to say no

[@koolburn5218]

I love how you pointed out Dana not promoting fighters. The prime example of this is Demetrius Johnson, who defended his title 11 consecutive times! The UFC failed to promote this man and wasnt paid like a champion should have been.

[@blxckoxt6703]

This take is by far the best and 100% accurate. Everything from beginning to end in precisely how it is. This is my first time to this channel and I stumbled onto a genius who sees things for how they are. Francis chose himself and to keep his soul. F Dana, he can suck off Jones for all we care. Fury would be right to come out and denounce himself especially with illegal elbow. He can show class that no other fighter has done.
