[@ronaldpotter5878]

[@matrixxx3662]

When Francis decided to wrestle, Stipe was on his back and his hands on the floor. Leaving his neck unprotected. Any fighter with an average fifth Iq would of gone for a rare naked choke and finish the fight. Francis decided to hit Stipe on the ears and chin Instead. Leaving an opportunity for Stipe to get back up and escape at that moment. And he did just that. Fight Iq of Francis Is still obvious and so is his cardio. They are both his weaknesses. And his chin Is questionable. He dosen't get hit much. Because he starts attacking his opponents the soon as the fight starts, using his speed and explosiveness and finish the fight by the end of round 2.

Francis wasn't hurt, he was slightly off balance when atipe hit him but he was not rocked or in danger. In his entire career he has never been rocked or hurt by a punch or kick.

[@nuclearlefthook5008]

100%. He wasn't remotely hurt. Slowing down and watching it back, you can tell his eyes are on Stipe the entire time. The "wobble" was him taking two steps to get into position, because he landed squared up after getting hit. He took one step, which left him almost cross legged, then another step to get into position. And he immediately countered Stipe with accuracy and power. So yeah, he was NOT hurt.

@stonbinoscope andré but the way Ngonnou approached the fight he didn't give any opening for takedown so Miocic was forced to stand up. This caused panick. But he can easily overcome this in rematch as he knows the improvement Francis made. When the cage is small usually a bigger guy gets advantage. Stipe was also heavier in first fight.

Tbh low kicks and high kick that Francis threw are looking really awkward. Not trying to discredit him in anyway but torso rotation is minimal and his leg is pulling all his body into it like a hip lock not to mention center rotation on standing leg when you throwing high kick. I'm a big fan of Cro Cop and was watching him since K1 days in 90's and all those guys who were trowing leg kicks did it perfectly, and maybe I'm harsh comparing him with K1 strikers where you have to be almost perfect with leg kicks. Francis leg kicks are powerful but technically not that good.
