Exactly! I've BEEN saying that he is always overlooked in GOAT conversations. His resume is ridiculous. He's fought every killer and former champ still in the division. Aside from Brock Lesnar and Cain Velasquez he's beaten every former champ in the last decade....lol!

Thats not insane bro they are not standing up i see crazyer shit and i think most Heavyweight are not good these days . Francis Ngannou has improved alot he will smash him 1st round for sure he is more precise and quicker Miocic he’s defense had not been always good .
Well francis had no gas tank whatsoever at this time literally barely threw after the 1st round(threw 8 in 3rd, 3 in the 4th, and 13 in the 5th like actual terrible cardio) so not really that impressive back then he was all hype now hes actually developing a real skillset
Stipe felt disrespected by the UFC and Dana hyping up Francis. Thats why he took the belt off Dana and gave it to his trainer to put on him. Can't say i blame him, they are looking at screwing him again now vs Cormier in the rubber match
It's different because the take downs drain energy from a power striker, especially one has heavily build as Ngannou. Even after defending 1 take down you won't be punching at maximum power.
@@dannyboi4033 I'm calm, I'm just giving a logical answer to what I think was a illogical statement, joke or not. Nganngou hitting like a ford escort is what his world record punch has been compared to. Saying Stipe can take that hit is incorrect, joke or not. There was a simple reason to why he could take the punches, and that was fatigue.

Francis is not a hype train at all, I believe he will be champion soon, he did a lot of damage to stipe with just the few shots that connected. It s just at the time he didn't have the right trainers, the right nutrition, the right environment, everything has changed since, the guy is trained inside UFC facilities now and obviously they made it a priority for him to work on his wrestling and cardio.

@@dannythompson7958 going into the Stipe fight there was a lot of hype behind Francis, he was supposed to be the first african champion in the UFC, and it felt like he also would be the new face off the organization. Stipe derailed that and humanized Ngannou, back then.
@@dannythompson7958 fbeing a hype train isn't something negative, it only means there's hype behind it.

The same thing for instance happened to Walker when Anderson beat him, and then to Anderson when Bałachowicz beat him.

Stipe’s stamina and speed are phenomenal. He’s everywhere and mixed things up, he’s inside, both sides shit I said just everywhere. One thing missing to beat this man, kicks and elbows.
One of Stipe's greatest moments is also a very important part of Francis' career. Francis realized after this fight that he can't just rely on power. Especially with fighters like Stipe.
I like how Stipe was giving Francis alot of credit about how he is athletic and great power but then Ngannou turns around and to me just disrespects Stipe then gets his ass kicked and goes from talking about himself like he is the greatest fighter is history to giving Stipe alot of props reminds me of a bully who beats everyone then meets the one guy who beats him

@@suranpack6285 he beat thiago santos statistically because santos was falling down when he threw kicks. and that counted as knockdowns. reyes he straight up didnt beat. lost statistically.
Rogan: "This is the scariest man in the history of the sport". "He is literally a one in a million type athlete". Rogan and Dana hyped Ngannou and he also believed his hype.
I don't think those statements are inaccurate. Ngannou is physically the most powerful fighter. He just lacks the skill and the stamina to defeat an experienced trained fighter like Stipe.
Anybody who can stand in a ring with Stipe and make him go for takedowns because he doesnt want to get knocked out automatically makes you one of the scariest dudes in the world lol

Don't compare this fight to Ngannou vs Jon Jones. Stipe is much more stronger and bigger physically than Jones. Stipe was able to pick up Francis and dump him for a takedown while Jones didn't get a single takedown against Dominic Reyes. Also don't forget that Ngannou's learning curve has increased heavily since his Stipe fight.
@@nrgmma4543 does it really count as a takedown if Jones couldn't hold him down for more than 5 seconds? The whole point of a takedown in MMA is to give the fighter the top control position to allow them to inflict damage on the opponent. Jones couldn't do that. How do u expect him to take down Ngannou who weighs 60 lbs more than Reyes?
People Say Ngannou has improved... I still see him swinging like crazy (don't get me wrong, if he touches you, You are out, but he was already fighting like that before the stipe fight) with no technique, yeah his récord has more names now but that's it.
I don't see Jones beating ngannou. His main advantage his whole career is size. Reyes and Gustafson gave him trouble because they could match his length. If he goes to heavyweight he gets wrecked imo.
That’s why stipe is one of my favorite fighters always humble and will accept any fight.. wouldn’t catch me fighting someone who can throw punches harder than a ford escort going full speed😂
I just love the fact that when Dana says world record for powerful punch for Francis, and there comes stipe and DC STARING EACH OTHER AND SMILING AT 0:11😂
I wouldn't say hype train derailed, he's more hyped now than he was then. Also, Francis is still very young in the sport, especially when this fight happened. Regardless who wins Stipe/DC III, if Stipe stays doesn't retire they should do a rematch with him and Francis for the belt.
@@JohnSmith-fk3fv people in this comment section really dont understand that lol. Stipe has been mia for a minute now and ng has been improving every single year and has killed everyone of his opponents so far. Sure DC will be fighting for the belt but have fun dealing with this man in the fight after lmao
@@christiantran9144 Francis has been killing all in his division except stipe lol but honestly I see DC as more of a threat to the title for stipe than ngannou. Ngannou has that threat of one punch power but DC could compete with stipe in the battle of skills and will
3:22 this is what Im scared of in the rematch.. look at how little windeup there is and what a huge impact it has on stipe... or any other living human being for that matter
So you really think Francis isn't smart or has technique? - the guy speaks English fluently and learnt it in 2-3 years. - moves from camaroon to France and learns boxing, you think he doesn't have techniques?
@@coolhari2000that's completely different, you can be the dumbest man in the world, and still be a very smart fighter, case and point, jone jones. By the same token you can be a genius and fight like a dumbass (not saying ngannou does, but stipe was clearly the smarter fighter in that fight).
coolhari2000 yeah been on a tear but we haven’t seen any real improvement he just went back to throwing caution to the wind keep his stance high chin up and throws bombs and it’s works but it’s not going to work against DC or stipe 9/10 times there both great boxers and high level wrestlers in two years Francis has had a chance to prove himself and improve but he hasn’t shown that and anyways I don’t think two years is enough for a heavyweight who is already 33 to match the life long wrestling and boxing of stipe and DC they are just better overall fighters Francis can knock them out but he really only has two rounds to do it
Too much muscle mass! Also needs a bit more body fat to burn through during a fight. Fighters don't care much about endurance anymore. More interested in looking good.
@@chukwujames1146 he did and he would he said Ngannou power wasn't hard at all his plan was based on people hyping up ngannou but in reality miocic learned not to believe peoples BS lol Ngannou getting ktfo next time

Stipe is the baddest man on the planet
jones would beat em easy. hes way to slow.
@@jelorer ok
@@jelorer Too slow? He's quicker than Jones has looked in his last few fights.
Justin Ejimah that’s like saying you know deep down in the bottom of your heart that Jon Jones clearly beat Thiago Santos and Dominick Reyes.
@@suranpack6285 he beat thiago santos statistically because santos was falling down when he threw kicks. and that counted as knockdowns. reyes he straight up didnt beat. lost statistically.

You can tell that Ngannou was traumatized from his face at the end
Lmao! White dude clobbered that weak fool.
Nah he was just gazed
@@Anthonydu01630 he got his ass beat pretty bad so he was definitely a bit traumatized, he thought it was gonna be easy
bruh every round... he looks confused and tired..
i want to see the rematch
@@Ocidad looks like Ngannou improved big time
Rogan:
"This is the scariest man in the history of the sport".
"He is literally a one in a million type athlete".
Rogan and Dana hyped Ngannou and he also believed his hype.
Atul Kumar had to sell the fight too
also he HAS uniquely scary power. anyone can get caught by it. it almost sucks but it's a fact
Nnganu unfortunately has not come into his own yet.. he has the heart, build and physic...he just lacks skill. And boi can he take a few punches
I don't think those statements are inaccurate. Ngannou is physically the most powerful fighter. He just lacks the skill and the stamina to defeat an experienced trained fighter like Stipe.
Anybody who can stand in a ring with Stipe and make him go for takedowns because he doesnt want to get knocked out automatically makes you one of the scariest dudes in the world lol
5:07 tf is this lmao.
"Let me just catch a break real quick... Aaaand back to work again"
Gave him false hope, aight ima let you up...PSYCH!!!! Bahaha
Good old mind games, broke the poor man's spirit hahaha
Stipe's trying to gas out Ngannou by giving him his body weight while Ngannou struggles to even move. Smart fighter, truly a champion!
Looked like a broken NPC in a videogame 😅
@@lukthere2 IT DID. It looked like a Elder Scrolls NPC glitching out ahhahahah
I lost almost 2 kilos when watching these fight in my bed.
Holly shit that was brutal in 1st round..
Stipe true hero.
One of the best performance ever
One of the happiest days of my life.
Talent and intelligent,beat monstrous power
Yh I agree but if this match is held again stipe will be knocked out
Every time.......well almost.
Ngannou was like a baby in MMA experience then.
Josh Kans Stipe will outclass him again and just take him down to the ground lol what are you on about lol
@@azticbangz1792 his first fight with him has given him a fair idea about stipe. Stipe can't box him unless take him down by wrestling and now he has improved much in defending take downs so imagine how the fight will look like now
This hits different after watching the rematch.
You just have to admire Stipe's fight IQ. No doubt he's heavyweight GOAT.
How can DC say anything about Stipe! DC is too afraid to fight Francis... and Stipe deconstructed him!
@@mr.philip9039 Ngannou landed 2 punches in the final 3 rounds. *21* Sig. Strikes landed out of *113* attempts... That's less than 20%. His only chance at winning is a lucky punch.
@@mr.philip9039 No he doesn't. They didn't test any power punchers from boxing on the machine they tested Francis with. Any heavyweight boxer(except Fury or Ali or a couple of defensive boxers) hits harder than Francis.
DC will destroy Francis thanks to his grappling. He can submit or knockout him. Grapling of DC is so good for Francis
DC a BITCH. Trying to fight the better fighter for a third time instead of fighting Francis. That cheat fook snatched that belt with eyepokes
@@cypresspuz he recently said that he is ready to fight Francis, if Stipe does not want to fight or something like that. The belt is main goal for DC
for hw many times ive watchd this fight still d most satisfying fight to watch this two guys was an exact opposite character just like in the movie...and the exact result stipe heavyweight GOAT
Is the full fight anywhere?
@@wildnfree101 Yeah you can literally look it up, it's on UA-cam.
@@TheStraightestWhitest Thx man, I was just getting the highlights yesterday but added 'full fight & it came straight up.
Have a good day.
@@wildnfree101 Glad to help.
5:09 When ı suddenly remember that ı forgot my cell phone in car.
What a lesson for Ngannou. Hope he learns from his mistakes and becomes the greatest.
This comment aged well
@@langfordjeremy100 yes
Yeah right getting hit by a ford escort at 180kmph is the same as his hardest punch lmfao. Who even comes up with this bullshit
I think he means pound for pound
Its relative to the size, so if you got hit by a ford the size of his fist it would feel like his punches
@@TheRealJG0 lmfao when has Ngannou ever smashed someones head like a pumpkin? Man Had one solid KO in the last 3 years the rest were lossed or Tkos man hits like any other HW a marketing gone wrong
@@khabibistheking7686 what the hell are you talking to me for khabib ass licker? He knocked out his last opponent with a clipping hook, hard to hit hard if you cant hit what your aiming at, go click up and watch the fight
@@TheRealJG0 he aimed and still lost and one ko is silly everyone has a ko it tooked long enough to see a ko from ngannou instead of tko to out of prime 8
Don't compare this fight to Ngannou vs Jon Jones. Stipe is much more stronger and bigger physically than Jones. Stipe was able to pick up Francis and dump him for a takedown while Jones didn't get a single takedown against Dominic Reyes. Also don't forget that Ngannou's learning curve has increased heavily since his Stipe fight.
Joash Mathew he did get takedowns against Reyes
@@nrgmma4543 does it really count as a takedown if Jones couldn't hold him down for more than 5 seconds? The whole point of a takedown in MMA is to give the fighter the top control position to allow them to inflict damage on the opponent. Jones couldn't do that. How do u expect him to take down Ngannou who weighs 60 lbs more than Reyes?
Joash Mathew kinda because he still went down
People Say Ngannou has improved... I still see him swinging like crazy (don't get me wrong, if he touches you, You are out, but he was already fighting like that before the stipe fight) with no technique, yeah his récord has more names now but that's it.
I don't see Jones beating ngannou. His main advantage his whole career is size. Reyes and Gustafson gave him trouble because they could match his length. If he goes to heavyweight he gets wrecked imo.
"When I connect you know what happens" LOL
That’s why stipe is one of my favorite fighters always humble and will accept any fight.. wouldn’t catch me fighting someone who can throw punches harder than a ford escort going full speed😂
Love how stipe gives a highfive before each round, real sportsman!
He outclassed him on so many levels.
For the moment, we'll see.
jérémy AOUN he always will. He wasn’t arrogant like that fuck wad
@@rickywagner6990👍 A certain arrogance that he recognized after the fight.
jérémy AOUN true
This time it will be very different. Francis can smack anyone in his division. I will come back to this comment after their fight
This Ford Escort must've had the square wheels on in this one.
Lol lol
This Guy is Champion for a reason,I have never seen this kind of capacity to withstand blows after blows♥️ Respect For Stipe ♥️♥️😍
I just love the fact that when Dana says world record for powerful punch for Francis, and there comes stipe and DC STARING EACH OTHER AND SMILING AT 0:11😂
DC might be a dirty cheat but he's smart, he knew it was a hype job and aside from the first 2 minutes Francis didn't stand a chance.
They were both thinking "that power will be useless once he is on his back eating punches"
Stipe DOMINATED. Love when hype trains are derailed
I wouldn't say hype train derailed, he's more hyped now than he was then. Also, Francis is still very young in the sport, especially when this fight happened. Regardless who wins Stipe/DC III, if Stipe stays doesn't retire they should do a rematch with him and Francis for the belt.
@@JohnSmith-fk3fv people in this comment section really dont understand that lol. Stipe has been mia for a minute now and ng has been improving every single year and has killed everyone of his opponents so far. Sure DC will be fighting for the belt but have fun dealing with this man in the fight after lmao
@@christiantran9144 Francis has been killing all in his division except stipe lol but honestly I see DC as more of a threat to the title for stipe than ngannou. Ngannou has that threat of one punch power but DC could compete with stipe in the battle of skills and will
@@JohnSmith-fk3fv u imagine it would go any different
People here don't get it.. Francis has not technique no gas tank. He is a steroid soldier.. Stipe will kill him 100 times in 100 fights
Nice mixing with the music, excellent video!
3:22 this is what Im scared of in the rematch.. look at how little windeup there is and what a huge impact it has on stipe... or any other living human being for that matter
People be sleepin on Stipe for what?? Golden gloves boxing champ AND D1 wrestler hes perfect for this shit
Thanks. I went and checked. You're right!
Yeah I knew that ,, he fights with brain
Yup and cejudo too! That's like the perfect combo. Reminds me of Frankie Edgar fighting style
@@Phaminator525 Cejudo is cringy but hes a Phenominal Fighter in just about every way
@@johnhiggs9663 Cejudo is an actual chode
After a couple rounds, Ngannou looked pretty sleepy lol
Is it just me or is this fight different from every other fight on ufc. There's something that stands out. Its blowin my mind right now
The best heavyweight of the history and the most underrated
I forgot how good was Stipes head movement in this fight
Stipe was pretty brilliant for how he controlled that fight! Impressive!
that first round prolly one of the most wild first rounds in ufc history
the heavy weight goat! this rematch got my more hyped than any fight in a while!
I think a lot of People Forgot about This Fight!
Yes, i event miss the match? When was it?
6:16 in round 4 stipe landed 82 punches abs Francis landed 0
Thats crazy truly the goat
Total strikes were around 104, unanswered. Stipe made him his bitch
Lmfaooo
Omfg its truly insane.
At 6:31 Francis is standing there like " what you mean there is no 6th round..? “
Wtf that guy Stipe is agile as a cat! He's like some comic hero
Love the look on uncle Fester's head when Stipe takes the belt
Dana White: Ngannou's punch is stronger than a sledgehammer
Stipe's Reaction: Soka 😐
Stipe reaction f you give me my belt..
Great fight by both competitors. Loved it!
Props to these two tho never gave up and they definitely put on a show for the fans
Legend says Dana still hasn't recovered to this day
That is why all good fighters had beef with him at some or the other point. Take the diaz brothers for eg
Best part was when stipe took the belt from Dana..Dana deserved it
sending love to Stepe im a Cleveland native too, we love you man and were so proud of you win or loose!
The most glorious fight I’ve ever seen. Stipe was not phased one bit going in to fight and in the cage stope is a real one for sure
That Francis is a beast but I prefer intelligence and technique instead..
Yeah, that's why I really want to see dc vs stipe 3. The 2 most talented hw going at it is really something else
So you really think Francis isn't smart or has technique?
- the guy speaks English fluently and learnt it in 2-3 years.
- moves from camaroon to France and learns boxing, you think he doesn't have techniques?
@@coolhari2000that's completely different, you can be the dumbest man in the world, and still be a very smart fighter, case and point, jone jones.
By the same token you can be a genius and fight like a dumbass (not saying ngannou does, but stipe was clearly the smarter fighter in that fight).
@@Reza-hz1ce - Yes Stipe did have the better game plan, Ngannou took the loss(es) real well, in a smart way, and has been on a tear since then.
coolhari2000 yeah been on a tear but we haven’t seen any real improvement he just went back to throwing caution to the wind keep his stance high chin up and throws bombs and it’s works but it’s not going to work against DC or stipe 9/10 times there both great boxers and high level wrestlers in two years Francis has had a chance to prove himself and improve but he hasn’t shown that and anyways I don’t think two years is enough for a heavyweight who is already 33 to match the life long wrestling and boxing of stipe and DC they are just better overall fighters Francis can knock them out but he really only has two rounds to do it
1:35 I love Stipe's staredowns, looks fearless 👊🏼 what a beast
I can't wait for this rematch!
Both of those gentleman have a gigantic chin. Most of fighters would have gone to sleep with those punches.
Stipe throws the leg kicks like he’s sparring haha
He didn't want to hurt him too much,Stioe is a smart fighter and knows how to win without hurting opponent too much.
Stipe the baddest MF of all combat sports. Heavyweight Champ #and still.
The background music feels so good 😻💘
This never gets old
Francis “Out of Gas” Gannou
Lol I suggest he should stop by at mobile gas station
@@JackJack-pe7xi he has the power of a car, he needs some combustible
He's a punching machine, for about a round. Very similar to conor, although, francis shows more heart on the ground.
Too much muscle mass! Also needs a bit more body fat to burn through during a fight. Fighters don't care much about endurance anymore. More interested in looking good.
Fat guys comments
This beat goes hard like stipe did on ngannou
Not as good as the way he slept dc
Stipe couldn’t knockout Ngannou !
@@patrickmarcelo6340 mauled ngannou.
By the end of R4, Ngannou was totally helpless. Couldn't even get up ryt away
Lmao at Stipe's face while Dana describes Ngannou
Francis didn't even have enough energy to touch gloves towards the later rounds lol
Damn, stipe just wrestle clinics out of francis
Wrestling and boxing clinic sir
Ric Anthony Pacaldo whitout the wrestling he wouldnt box whit him thats fact..
@@chukwujames1146 he did and he would he said Ngannou power wasn't hard at all his plan was based on people hyping up ngannou but in reality miocic learned not to believe peoples BS lol Ngannou getting ktfo next time
Chukwu James
Good thing it’s mixed martial arts and not kickboxing then
@@chukwujames1146 he dodged every punches of Francis early in the fight and lit him up early before the savage take downs.
And still to this day stepi is the heavy weigh champ☺️
it's stipe, stepi is your best friend
Sis, that filter are a little over, don't you think? 😂
M.Arjuna Putra Perdana HAHAHAH LAUGH SO HARD
I dont know if I like Stipe or even know him......but 1 thing is for sure: " I RESPECT HIM"
When dana say ngannou have most powerful punch dc look at stipe and say good luck 🤣🤣
To bad his fighting a ghost n can't land one
Too bad the powerful Francis got beat by the more powerful Stipe.
to me Stipe Miocic is heavywaight version of GSP!! great Fighter.
GSP Had not a opponent like Ngannou !
@@sportlovers3686 lol u re crazy
@@sportlovers3686 yep exactly
Stipe doesn’t look like he’ll bring the goods but dam he’s pin point with punches. Like Nick Diaz not same power as Francis but come later rounds Francis had nothing left. Slow and steady wins the race
Timing beats speed and precision beats power
Nice fight that's what you call being Fearless
M in love with this white man although i've been francis fan since his last fight.
Juxt Incredibly courageous stipe❤
Not courageous, just a better and Stipe was the more powerful fighter.
