38 years old, didnt start training until his 20s...learnt how to fight whilst already in the UFC (he was shown a kimara in the locker before his fight and won with it) learnt english incredibly quickly...i think (physical beast aside) people really underestimate how intelligent ngannou is, imagine he boxed/trained mma like most of the newer crowd as a young teen. And he's a really, really good person, left the biggest payday of his life at the UFC because they wouldnt give fighters health insurance and improve their pay, has a stipulation his opponents get better pay, a solute legend
(he was shown a kimara in the locker before his fight and won with it) : Not true, he said in french interview that he wanted to say "We drilled the kimura in the locker" but at this time his english was not like what it is today, and he said instead "We learned the kimura in the locker". If you search on youtube Sami Dali vs Francis Ngannou , you will see him doing grappling competition in France before his UFC debut ,he trained grappling everyday with his buddy former Bellator LHW MPumbu black belt back in the day. And if you pay attention, in his 1st UFC fight, he defended the takedown and nutralize the grappling of brazilian BJJ guy. In his 2nd fight he stopped the grappling and Takedown of NCAA Curtis Blaydes. Dude is an animal and learn very quick that's for sure.
👀
Smart, wise, principled, brave., Soft spoken and humble, wanting to fight and at peace with any outcome...Francis is the closest thing to what a perfect good man would look if you asked him to become a fighter
As soon as I saw how quick did he learn English, I knew he was very intelligent. His career and achievements reflect this 1:1. Happy for the big man.
Age is just a number…..
You mouth breathers keep failing to realize that
We thought he was crazy when he left the UFC now he’s boxing at the highest level. A true legend go and get that title!!!!
"I don't understand"😂😂😂😂😂😂peak gold right there
😢😢😢 I caught that too
😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Production quality 10/10. Editor is genius
Calm tf down you easily pleased melt.
Agreed. From the cineamtic stuff to the B roll in the streets. Top quality.
That’s for sure!! That’s my brother from Slovenia Rok Kadoič. He’s personal videographer of Franci’s check his content out 🔥🦅
I felt it from the beginning man oh man that was good
Ngannou’s whole team is awesome-Dewey, Eric, Marquel, Usman, and everyone else.
This big Francis is so calm and relaxed when he speaks gently and softly....un volcan silencieux. Goodluck champ may the best win 🎉
Especially when he has to interact with these sub-70 IQ oil princes.
When lava unleash from the sand mines of Cameroon 🌋
Yeah the one who will do the best on 8th of March
He won't cry like a baby If he loses that's for sure
Personally he’s got the heart of a lion and the hunger of one …. I don’t think Joshua has the appetite for the sport , we shall see but Francis I think will ko Joshua, he knocked fury down on his first ever boxing match, surely that speaks volumes.
Francis, you got this my friend. Love from Hong Kong 🇭🇰
leave hongkong、 hongkong is controlled by CCP now
God bless Francis 🙌🏻
Here we go again. I believe in you brother.
Love from Detroit, Brother Ngannou. A true champion. Proud of your accomplishments. Get ‘em, Champ!! 💪🏾
"I never really laid my eyes on the undisputed title, but now that it's there, I think it's something that I want." Chills because we know just how far he'll go to achieve any goal! Dreamchaser
It's unbelievable to see how humble Francis is. Heavyweight champion... TV... Promotions, and STILL just a humble down to Earth human being 💜
LET'S GOOO FRANCIS SHOCK THE WORLD AGAIN 🔥🔥🔥
He just needs to speed his punches and movement up. Seems he doesn't listen to Mike
@@lokivatotrue😂😂😂l noticed Mike kept insisting on those fast, swift jabs but his are slower😅. Rooting for him and quite confident that he will deliver❤
I love Francis but he ain't going to shine on my country man Joshua...mayb another fighter not Joshua.
Think 95% chance of Joshua winning. Boxing is boxing.
@@lokivatomikes not really his trainer. The clips are all just promotional stuff. And a man of Francis size can not speed up his punches
When Frances retires, we need a movie and a book. Legendary man.
Legend
You are Fucking Francis Ngannou and we love you. You are an example for the entier world. Respect!!!
5:01 the promo is going to be crazy like the Tyson Usyk promo.
Incredible production
definitely a more exciting fight
"I am fucking Francis Ngannu"
❤
GO ON SON
Go on.
You can only achieve extremely great things when you bet on yourself and take use risks. This guy inspires me greatly.
You got this Francis, love from Scotland 🏴
8:00 Tyson Fury looking embarrassed to be in Ngannou’s presence. Awkward
So he should be.
LOOOOOOL
*King Fury gonna smash low-power Usyk.*
You can do this champ❤
God Willing yes he can
This fight is going to be legendary
the only guy who came from mma and fighting the biggest names in boxing
Biggest names in their prime... Francis is already a legend of combatsport
Nothing short from remarkable, unbelievable
McGregor duh
@@MisteraccountableFloyd was old and he got KOd by an old man.
@@Mikiavelliprod and how.old do you think fury is?
Man. I'm hype for this fight!!!!
My most anticipated of the year! Last time I felt similar was Fury/Wilder 1 on Dec 2018 or as a kid IronMike/RealDeal 1 on Nov 1996.
The production is always on point 😌🤌🏾
🔝🔥
💯
*jon really dodged a bullet with this animal. Lets go francis!*
Stop talking nonsense
Jon will beat Ngannou in a street or mma fight.
We are talking about the goat here
@@hs8153 i can't deny that jones is the more complete fighter, but if francis hits him clean on the chin, you know it's good night for jones, jon is not a natural heavyweight with knock out power
@kevinlewis8162 you're right bruh. Can't argue with that
@@hs8153 Haha, Jon will do all he can to duck Ngannou and Aspinall. He knows deep down he doesn't have a chance 🤡
@@hs8153but jon has become an addict he needs to go to rehab first
The goat 🐐🐐🐐
Absolutely inspiring. As his boxing coach said, he inspires not hope, but veritable hope. 💪
Production getting better and better.
Amazing videography. The picture is absolutely beautiful💯
sick video, great editing/yt whoever is doing this stuff is on it.
i didn't know about the yt channel til now, kinda sick to see the quality.
hope Francis can keep surprising boxers, imo he's already way more dangerous than most of them will ever be
i just love this guy he is surely an inspiration 💗love you champ
Ngannou was thrown in at the deep end. So respect to him. No other boxer has done this before. Fury and AJ in his first two fights
Has no-one clicked on yet?
Finally, something we haven't seen before.
As an English man who has been a fan of boxing since the mid 1970's, I'm fully backing my man.
Absolutely 100% behind you Ngannou, I hope you win, and wish you well 🙂
Ánimo Ngano, vas hacer historia en el boxeo, te seguimos siempre
Dana and the ufc really drop the ball on a global superstar star life story alone worth millions not to mention movies roles video games plus endorsements
Yeah, but just think how much more money Francis is making now without Dana and the ufc taking their slice.
Getting away from Dana was literally the best move Francis made since leaving the sand mine
Hindsight is 20/20.
And the cereal don’t forget the cereal
To be fair I have never understood why they have never made a movie about him , his story and journey alone are unreal ,something that need to be in a movie ,Dana and the ufc could have easily capitalised on him
He should be prostrate on the floor kissing Fury's feet for giving him a chance.
Production on this video is 10/10
Ngannou!
King Francis ❤❤❤
This guys humble persona just makes you want him to win- EVERYTHING
A humble man and he is worth all sucsess !!
💯🥊
t'es une legende mon frere
Exciting times ahead!!! Great video, great man 🔥
💯
This was fantastic, brilliantly put together
Go on big man! This is yours for the taking! 🙏🏻👍🏻
God Bless
When the perfect voice over guy is also your Coach...
Stay humble, you have achieved so much and will be a great inspiration to so many, good luck in your upcoming fight.
The quality of your videos has improved immeasurably so, this is great can’t wait to watch more episodes hope its not one a week ahaha
Definition of a beast 🔥
A true inspiration FN 🇨🇲
Yea you should do like him, running away from your country, then coming to France and then once you "succeeded" showing pridly your African flag
@@christopheredig2332 so if he "succeeds" in France his history/biology automatically changes? Makes much sense
Whoever produced this has skills. The shots and edits remind me of anatomy of a fighter
Gran video, Francis, te felicito por todo lo que estás haciendo. Saludos desde Perú
Is it even possible to hurt Francis with those 🥊 cloves , that man is built different
Boxing gloves are there to protect your hands not stop knock outs.
@@Jasontvnd9Still got more cushion than ufc gloves.
@@craiganbrooks1485 Have you ever actually wore a boxing glove? It's not like a marshmallow.
@@Jasontvnd9 yes I have had on boxing gloves plenty of times, I know exactly what you are saying. However it is still more cushion than a MMA glove. Are you implying that a MMA gloves has more cushion than a boxing glove❓
@@craiganbrooks1485 No im implying that knock outs are just as possible in boxing gloves in a boxing match as MMA gloves in an MMA fight.
man id love to have francis as a friend / mentor homie is stoic nature is def something to look up to.
Mr. Nganou is an example of hardwork. This a good example for the youths to copy
100% but no they idolise drill rappers. We gave people like Francis who should be the role models for young black men. They are lost
Amazing how far you already have come !
You can do it Francis!
Un combattant de la vie.lumiere a lui❤
Gotta be proud of this man 💯
Big love from Nigeria
Love from Kenya…Win everything and shock everyone
Lets go Francis!! Awesome video dude 😃
Let's go champ! I didn't follow the MMA career and boys I surely missed out because the man I saw shimmy at Tyson is a great one. Let's see another level now champ. We love you buddy!
The story, is sweeter than honey, the journey unbelievable, the sacrifice beyond words and today we part take in the fruits that have been unvveiled. Francis is a winner regardless of where the winds blows, his story will forever be told.
WoW! "These are rare moments that'll never happen again" . -Dewey Cooper
Good luck Francis, I know that a lot of the UK are rooting for you. A proper role model & inspiration.
your humble and inspiring. Keep going!
Vamos Francis💪👊
U r a complete motivation to us, may the best man win. congratulations camp
Francis God Bless You! You are an inspiration for all of us! 👏
Much love from Canada! 🇨🇦
You are my new favourite boxer man, keep up the good work.
I really want to believe in Ngannou. I want to believe his dream is possible and that he can become heavyweight champ.
I don't know if it will happen but damn if it does it'll be historic.
❤ Let's go Champion 💪
Great doc 🎉
Best wishes!
I’m a fan a both of these guys man damn. 😅
Me too happy and sad a bit
Salut à toi,
Tutoyer est l'avantage de l'âge, je vais en profiter pour t'appeler frère.
Tu es un exemple fantastique. Tu apprends le respect aux américains. Tu fais revivre tout un pays et bientôt un continent.
Tu es l'africain le plus influent et le plus important pour déjà plusieurs générations. Tu as déjà eu plusieurs vies et tu ne capitules pas, jamais.
Total respect.
Merci à toi
Toujours inspirant Francis !
What a genuine soul. Reminds me of Ali, true champion inside & out of the ring!
2 African legends 🇨🇲🇳🇬❤️
1 real born and bred African other was brought up in Watford there’s life experience isn’t the same
1* African legend. The other tries to be British deep down.
@@Igbehead12tries? No he is.
2 juice heads
@@Mason-626 Your that out of shape guy that got no motivation and thinks everyone with a decent physique is a juice head
I remember everyone saying that Francis made the wrong choice and that he should have stayed in the ufc now look at him. Can’t wait to see you become the heavy weight champ.
Shut the puck up Dana! 1st I heard in Montreal stuff about GSP, then others... So happy Francis could free himself from that crap, kudos to PFL. I'm looking right now for a Trump AI app to send to Dana: "Mr White, you're fired!"
🤡
He shouldn't be fighting the people he's fighting its just a money making 💩 show in 💩 hole country
"I don't understand" I feel you Francis 😂
Thanks you for allowing me to dream Francis!
Rest in peace :d
Forget Ngannou, the star of this video is his coach! 🎤
Impossible to forget, please choose another word
Go for it champ. I’m behind you all the way!
Let's go Francis! Big up from the Netherlands
inchallah là victoire mon frère français ❤🇩🇿❤🇨🇲❤
I have a feeling that if Francis fights at 255 and uses his MMA aggression,he will have it in the bag 🇨🇲
He don’t need to be that small but yea he’s stronger and hits harder then Aj has fast hands also and good timing people underestimate from Ngannou
@@poppymack8812 I think this fight needs no more than 6 rds so I agree size doesn't matter. AJ's traps/setup to land his power early with some Stick and Move will be key vs FN's head/feet movements with good delivery/timing. AJ will surely land some hard shots, FN's buzz control/chin will be tested. If or I'd say when FN lands we know it's over cause he's no 41yo Klitchko or Stay-Puft Marshmallow Ruiz and I doubt the Saudis will allow the bell to ring 5secs short like it did with Usyk 1.
@@ForeheadPushUps not control will be tested don’t think tbh if you think about it he comes from mma Aj can’t be in close or mid range Ngannou timing is crazy good that’s why his nickname is the predator he always sets traps
@@ForeheadPushUps Ture though
I love you Francis ❤ I follow you since the beginning, we met at the MMA factory Paris, and I am a big fan, you are an exemple for me, for us. Keep follow your dream, hard work, discipline and the rest will come
Just perfect !
Love this, can't overlook Francis becuase he's the guy who wasn't supppse to be there and he has proven he is the right person to be in that spot. Joshua is taking Francis seriously and has to channel another part of himself to defeat this determined giant of a warrior. Team AJ all the way yet love to see the battle of Africa's fiercest warriors. I want to see the trailer for this.
Another ko will be delivered by francis in between round 4 and 6. Free Palestine ❤❤❤❤
🤡
insha'Allah
You're proper silly didn't know Nothing
Free uk 🇬🇧
2 dreams. 1 comment
Wishing you all the luck champ!!🔥🔥
You got this 💪 #Champ🥊
Damn this motivating me
Tons of respect like you said a lot of ppl doubted you (I did) but gained respect from the boxing community because you can box. Can't wait to see what new skills you bring in on your second bout.
So proud for you NGannou
All the best, Big Chief. You're a role model for all walks of life, humble and kind. TK
We love you Francis ....
