Did you know that Francis will never shake your hand? Its not because he's rude, but that he is so strong that he can't help but crush your hand if he was to shake it.

He didn't look great in their second meeting. He even admitted that he justĀ happened to go to the body in the 4th round. It wasn't part of his gameplan.Ā Thankfully, he looked much better in their third meeting. He's probably lost a few steps, but he's still a good few steps ahead of the rest of the division in my opinion.Ā 5 hours ago, David said: The first round was pretty dicey for Miocic, as it is for most of his opponents, but if I recall correctly the first frame ended with Miocic wobbling Ngannou after weathering the storm. Aye, I thought thatĀ on the night. But when I re-watched it, I realised that Ngannou didn't really land all that much and it was a clear Miocic round.

It's not so much that Ngannou landed, because if he'd landed he'd have won the fight most likely. It's that he was looking like a threat.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kfogg1991 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Apparently Dana is having yet ANOTHER meeting with Khabbib. This has started to become embarrassing now he has turned into that weird possessive ex that won't let go and accept it's over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panhead Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 (edited) Looks like Khamzat Chimaev vs Leon Edwards is off again. Dana says Khamzat's still suffering with long term effects from COVID.

Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted February 12, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted February 12, 2021 Yeah, Nate isnāt going for that. Edwards makes a decent point here though; Heās referring to Nateās interview with Helwani earlier this week where Nate rambled on chatting a load of shite but did say heās probably never going back down to 155 again and he wants Welterweights coming off wins. Based on Nateās own logic (such as it is), this is the kind of fight heās after. Except we know itās not. Heās saying heās going to be fighting at 170 but the names heās mentioned wanting to fight next are Dustin Poirier and Charles Oliveira, who are in the thick of the Lightweight title picture. If heās not going back to 155, Iād rather he not disrupt that little unofficial tournament.Ā Iād rather see him fight McGregor one last time. Or if heās serious about making a proper run at 170 (heās not, the top boys will school him and he knows it), fight a top Welterweight. Like Edwards. As for Edwards vs Chimaev. Christ almighty. How many times has it fell apart now? WeāveĀ got to be getting close to equalling the number of times Khabib vs Ferguson went tits up already. Except those cancellations were spread out over 5 or 6 years. Edwards vs Chimaev has been scrapped 3 or 4 times in about 3Ā months or something!Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
