Ryan Gennaro not a fan of Conor but why couldn’t you be both? Having said that Conor would get worked by either Ferguson or khabib

[@MrTadreis1]

Conor is popular because he is a fighter that can entertain. He is suppose to lose the fight then he wins it and people say he fought a weak opponent. Lol. Conor makes it look easy. I like stipe, he is smart and kicks ass but he's not an entertainer. Look at the ppv numbers. Dana needs to show Stipe some love though, he deserves it.

Stipe is a bit salty.. and rightly so, after the media and UFC overhyping Ngannou and underestimating the champ. Dude is a titan, and i'm so glad he won. Hope to see Cain vs Miocic in the end of the year. He could really cement his position in that fight.

[@Goggalor1990]

Fight reminds me of Cain vs. Lesnar and DC vs. Rumble. The smaller, more technical fighter winning via skill. Ngannou might have the "hardest punch ever", but that doesn't matter when your opponent also hits hard, is durable, and has far more technical skill in MMA.

[@Goggalor1990]

Blkzorro91 true. He needs to work on conservation of energy. He does plenty of cardio work if his training videos are accurate, he just needs to learn to not go all out from the start. As big as he is, it's not going to work out for him against those who can weather the storm and fight smart like Stipe.

Ngannou hype train ends

[@A1Gz_]

name unknown nah I believe he’ll be back, he’s too talented to stop

[@RaceActionNL]

Although Francis was a dead fighter after the first round. His mind was still there. He was not hurt by Stipe's knees, punches and kicks. Tonight Francis lost because he knows nothing of fighting and gameplanning. He listen to the wrong people. He should change training camp asap.

[@darien4969]

i agree with you, i'm not Ngannou fan but i respect him so much for multiple reasons. Indeed, he has only 4 years experience against a guy who dedicated his life for this ! He needs to work on his gameplay as you said before, however the real issue is that a coach must have given at least correct guidance during his training camp.. Congrats the champ Miocic, you never fail your fans, i hope Ngannou will work on his weaknesses because he has a real potential in mma if only he doesn't focus on raw power =)

[@ricwell209]

if conor's hype train didn't end after his loss , Ngannou's train isn't gonna end anytime soon

[@paragon1017]

Ngannou too talented? His ground game was pathetic. He needs to take a year off and improve that it was god awful. Going forward everyone is going to take him down and wear him out if he doesn't improve his cardio,guard and ground game.

Francis face looks ok but what about his legs and body lol. Stipe demolished him. Francis is going to piss blood. 83-0

[@newworldgrover8588]

photo camera Francis didnt get hurt he gassed in the first and was held down for four rounds. However, Stipe did out punch him.

[@photocamera9390]

RVM Coates Francis got tired because stipe out boxed him in the first. Stipe was winning before Francis gassed. Look at all the punches Stipe landed on his chin. He was hurt and never recovered. Its harder to see marks on dark skin compared to light skin. You think Stipes knees and pumches to the body didnt hurt either.. Also Stipe has a day job and still destroyed a full time athlete training at the best facility in the world.

[@newworldgrover8588]

photo camera look Stipe is the GOAT but he out classed some dude who was one dimensional. Ngannou said he didn"t get hurt just tired (no bleeding, sweeling or scars). His dumb coaches don't understand the need for weight cuts or ice in the corner to lower body temperature. Lactice acid build-up caused the lethargy in his body and his muscles shut down period. If Stipe punches hurt why wasn't he knocked out? He could hardly lift his arms to defend himself. Ngannou has no ground game and could barely move but Stipe still could take him out. Hats off to Stipe but it was a very boring fight.

Actually, France didn't hype this guy, Dana/the UFC did, and they did so to get their first genuine African champ, not an Afro America, to hook the black African audience/market.
