Francis Ngannou is without a doubt a monster. He is everything you want to see in a heavyweight world champion. Brandon Vera was surprised by how well Francis performed in his last fight. He said, “I was surprised at how well he did against Stipe Miocic, I thought Stipe will give him a hard time but Francis Ngannou played as a champion.”
It was evident that Francis was far better than Stipe, throwing accurate punches and rocking the whole ring. This exceptional victory is making fans turn their eyes to the predator’s next superfight with Jon Jones. But it looks like a stalemate because of the ongoing feud between Jon Jones and UFC.
