Foreman was one of, if not THE hardest punching fighter of all time. But does Ngannou hit harder than him? And could you imagine Foreman hitting with 4 oz gloves?
This guy might very well be the real deal... But the kind of hype he's getting is both cringe worthy as well as disgusting. The UFC are desperate.
Ngannou's technique is really bad. Like, Wilder-level bad. Any half-competent HW boxer would be able to KO him with a counter.
You don't have to like Ngannou but you don't need to make **** up either just because your a racist POS
I'm not sure what the issue is really its not even close to the over promotion they were giving Paige Van Zant and Sage Northcutt based on there looks.
Yeah and I was critical of that as well... Told everyone who would listen that Northcutt was a fraud who couldn't fight and would be exposed sooner rather than later. Happened a lot sooner than expected! The guy went bust so fast they weren't able to make any money with him.
I agree and thought the same it was obvious especially Sage but Ngannou has done a lot more to do what little extra promo they are putting into him Sage had only 5 fights against scrubs and was given the push on more looks then skill,Ngannou has had 11 wins from 12 fights (UFC 6-0 5KOs,1SUBM.) he just beat the number 1 contender has beaten a top 10 former world champ. If they aren't going to promote him they may as well not bother promoting anybody
Ngannou is obviously more legit than Northcutt. You don't see me or anyone else with credibility comparing how they were both hyped and pushed. I've never been a critic of Ngannou himself either, just have reserved some skepticism because he's only shown big KO power and hasn't proved that he can go rounds, take punishment etc. There's a lot to be impressed about but there's also a ton of unknowns. My concern is that he'll be another Rumble or Oezdemir who won't know what to do when the early KO doesn't come. That could happen against Stipe, or it could happen later on.
I have similar doubts which is why I wanted Ngannou to have 1 more fight as the division can't afford to kill of any contenders,I was hoping Overeem landing a good shot or 2 would have given us sum idea at least what his chin is like and it just sucks the division is so shallow they almost have to give him a shot.
And made up what exactly stupid?? “You don’t have to make **** up either.” WTF are you talking about *****?? I was stating an opinion. And who on here besides dumb troll ****s like you would argue against Wladimir Klitschko hitting harder wearing those 4oz gloves than Nguanno??
