this fight was boring as hell. Miocic fought by the rules. Good for him. still the champ. Yet, i cant understand some fighters nowadays.
That african dude, for exemple. I kwow Cameroon for their soccer team and for that movie about the olympics. The man had the chance to change his life and he gave up on the third round. i love martial arts. i dont fight. but, if i did and had a chance like that, i would try my best. even if knocked out

having a depleted gas tank / being green on the ground does not equal giving up

until you can feel what its like being exhausted and having someone pushing on you / applying pressure on you, you have no idea.

Props to ngannou for lasting all 5, guy has heart and a hell of a chin

when u choose something to do in life, u know what may happen.
thats like a cop crying for using his gun.


i miss fights like that

what?

Not the same thing. When your body hits a level of exhaustion you have never experienced before I guarantee you wouldn't respond to it in the way you think you would

what, what?

you choose to be a mma fighter.
there r people that work very hard, every day, fightting in shitty events, hoping to be in the ufc someday.
U got a fight in the geatest mma event ever.
you know its a 5 round fight. in the 3 round you r out o gas? U shouldn't be there.

wether you should be here or not is decided by wether you win your way into it, he won the #1 contender fight along with the bouts needed to get into the contention for #1 spot.

your argument does not take into account the countless possible scenarios due to which the gas tank that would normally last 5 rounds of workout in training, gets diminished much quicker

I understand your point. What i mean is: back in pride, for exemple, one guy had to fight two times in the same night. Exhaustion was the last excuse.

Wouldn’t be a shit fight, Francis would be on his back the entire time
