it makes no sense what dana's problem is. :what:

you can't pay your HW champ the 7 figures he deserves? and after upping the price of the ppv? he's even about to come out in the new jackass, was just fast and furious, a franchise, and then youre trying to do a ufc africa which you could use him to promote it, the man is on fire right now, but you're mad at having to give him 7 figures? I thought he was a smart investor :wtf:

id give him a contract right at the presser, splash cash and gold at him, then have him do a victory tour both in the U.S, Europe and then Africa. you could promote the shyt out of him now that he has down time after the surgeries. this idiot is going to lose him to boxing, francis is a free agent, and those boxing promoters don't play and are cash strapped.

He only likes to throw money at Brock, Rhonda and Connor :mjpls:

Moreno looks retarded when he fights lol

Anyway, what happened to Gane is exactly what Stipe did to Francis. I'm sure Gane would win a rematch but that fight should make him understand there's more than stand up. Good lesson learned hopefully.

All he had to do was lay there and he wins on 2/3 judges cards. Whongoes for a heel hook from top position:mindblown:



Personally there needs to be more 10-10 rounds. Francis did absolutely nothing on top and was stalling.

I actually think Francis wins the 2nd fight a lot easier.

he said in the press conference how jacked his knee was.

Gane doesn’t have any punching power, nothing to stop Francis from moving forward and bullying him again.

He was clearly point striking scared of Francis power. in a 2nd fight he has to worry about both that, and the grappling while fighting a healthy Francis.

I feel like people shttin on Gane more than they are praising NCAAgannou.

Gane fought how he always does and there’s no way anyone would say he was losing the stand up. He looked amazing as always.

NO ONE could have predicted or factored in Ngannou being that tact in the grappling not did anyone expect for that to be displayed in rounds 3,4, and 5. No one knew at all that Francis had that level of understanding of wrestling and jiu jitsu, on top of being that light switch man. Francis made the necessary adjustments in the fight to firmly secure victory. It’s really that and it was amazing to see, especially knowing the improvements he’s made.

Not to mention…. Francis Ngannou is now the heavyweight GOAT but the community is not ready to have that conversation yet. :sas2:

He never really faced a good wrestler. Or at least, no one actually took him to the ground. It’s always been standup or him successfully defending takedowns.

This is why he should’ve fought Blaydes before Francis. He would’ve put up a GREAT fight and given him a lot to experience. Especially coming off his losses and layoff he def would’ve been more willing to wrestle.

But Dana decided to play politics to try and fukk over Ngannou and ended up fukking up one of his potential superstars.

Ehh, it’s just fighting tho. Hopefully, Gane doesn’t get that rematch he begged for and they slide him Blaydes to test himself.

Ngannou is 50/50 out of the UFC for a while tho. I think Dana is willing to fukk over the potential money just to spite dude.

I can see him just saying fukk it all and fighting Tyson Fury for a huge payday and retiring from MMA.

He’ll be out probably the rest of the year with his knee surgery anyways. I really don’t think we’ll ever see him in an octagon ever again unless UFC rolls out the red carpet (which ain’t happening on Dana’s watch).

Horrible timing for this fight had it gone either way. A real career blunder for the loser.

That leaves Gane vs Stipe for the vacant probably. I can see Gane taking it, IF he works on his ground game. Because trust everyone is aiming for that now.

And even if that scenario works out. Gane can never really be a superstar now because he got exposed and there’s a good chance he’ll never be able to rematch.
If Blaydes hadn't got knocked out by Lewis that probably would have been the next fight for Gane after the Volkov fight based on rankings
