ngannou in a legit camp would be fantastic
I've seen clips of him clinching/grappling with his coach...it seems rudimentary
“You are awesome”
That was kind of gay
I missed that, what happened?
Miocic’s corner was like
“Hey, you are AWESOME” to Stipe.

miocic is funny
btw, apparently rogan and cruz were getting pissed at each other during commentary? I missed it..what happened?
Consider that he claimed he's been training for Stipe before the Overeem fight. Really makes you think either his camp is trash or he doesn't learn well.
I can only reiterate - his boxing is kinda disappointing. I don't expect him to be a good grappler but he should be better at his calling card. Then again, maybe his calling card simply is his physique.

His grappling is even weaker.
I think he can still be a great fighter. But he is VERY raw. Kind of remind me of Sokoudjou when he first started KOing people.
Once Sokoudjou got KTFOed though, his career went to shit.
it's definitely his physique, he never really had time to show what he's capable of and he's always been with his coach from france..and lets be honest the mma scene in france isn't exactly world class, AFAIK pro mma is banned there.
but if he joins a real training camp, sky is the limit, especially in the HW division where old men can still dominate.
even though he got totally exposed for his skills, he lasted 5 rounds with miocic who ko'd werdum,JDS,overeem etc. so that is definitely a positive.

Oh that's totally what I meant btw, that his grappling is weaker than his striking, no question.
He gets very far simply on strength alone vs elite fighters and that's impressive on it's own. I also think he can definitely become a good champ but I'd like him to work on his striking. Needs to be more purposeful instead of those wild swings.
Yeah and there's still the Overeem KO which was quite impressive. Stick him in AKA and see what happens. With a body like his, could he even get injured?
I'm not surprised motherfuckers, for me the only question was if Stipe was gonna get hit badly in the first 2-3 minutes or not. Saw a clip of pros picking the fight, and everyone went with Stipe, which tells you everything.
Cain vs Miocic is the real thing.
Regardid Ngannu, it's hard to tell if he actually is that bad on the ground, or if he just completely gassed out. Because when there's no fuel, your body won't do what you want it to do.
"As Dana White was about to put the belt on Miocic, Miocic took it from him and gave it to his coach to put around his waist."

What the heck are Fedor and Frank Mir doing in the Bellator grand prix? They are both washed but I would take Mir over Chael Sonnen.
Dc is a beast. Legend. Should retire or fight miocic imo. And maybe a rematch with gus?
It is really key how N'Gannou bounces back now. His poor game-planning + lack of fundamental skills on the fence / ground was on full-display yesterday. I suspect now more fighters will use this type of strategy around him.
He is 31, which I wouldn't consider a spring chicken given he's so behind in those aspects. He is an exciting fighter, but I really think he has too many holes in his game to be exploited to really be consistently fighting contenders to get back to this spot (if he continues his current camp). Let's hope he realizes this and changes camp soon.

Dana White probably not happen Francis is not the champ. That guy has a long way to go if he wants to dethrone the HW champ.
This "Grand Prix" does not make sense, period.
Rampage Jackson looked so bad, just cashing the pay checks now.
