    Francis would beat him badly. I respect every man who has got in the ring but Eric wasn’t that good.

    Bean. Ngannou can't deal with an offensive, front foot boxer. He wouldn't do it as quickly as AJ but would get it done in 3.

    Ok, now the pendulum is swinging too far back in the opposite direction. Ngannou would waste Butterbean. Butterbean wasn't even really a boxer (I don't care if he had 80 fights). Ngannou in 1 1/2 fights showed more of a grasp on the craft than Butterbean with damn near 100.

    This is the problem, we've swung the pendulum from Ngannou being potentially the greatest potential phenom/savant in boxing history to being beaten by a toughman, in the span of a week.................Jesus Christ guys............
