I look up to Francis more than any other athlete. This man is a true inspiration.
“The price of freedom is never too much” Gives me chills hearing him say that
Man Im from Poland but trust me ufc just treated Francis like a Slave I dont understand how they getting away with it . Im really really hoping for Francis that he gets a big boxing match with Fury or something and just get the money he deserves and lives his best life . They always take advantage of propa good hearted people … love u Francis . Chin up.
They seriously playing with the best guy in business who is heavyweight instead of kissing asses of that 155 pounders guys they should give credit to this guys ,but again ufc is screwing with the best guys like they are known
@Isik Can 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
how hard it is to fulfill the contract you signed and agreed to? plus I think his friend wrote that text message. you gotta be stupid if you think dana and the UFC were involved with that in any way. with all that said respect to ngannou
@Isik Can spitting on hand bro they are paying way more to other guys just because they are more popular and they dont even fight that good
@@whiskeyhoarder9587 no he just not want to sign another contract weirdo
Big fan from india🇮🇳 sir...
We wish you a speedy recovery and return to the stadiums🇩🇿♓👑🌍🦁💪🏽👍🏼
Absolute legend Francis, you are a true warrior. Mad appreciation for how far you've come and everything you stand for. Freedom has no price, you either want it or you don't. You've proven countless times you want it. Attainable in so many different ways. Good luck on your journey. Big love from the UK!
Francis is different. He may change the way UFC contracts are negotiated
Francis had a much harder road to get to where he is. No silly contract will compare.
You are an inspiration Francis. Bow to no one you are the Champ!! We all know what you went through to get to here so keep proving them wrong . I hope you defend your throne multiple times in 2023
Stand your ground Francis! You will prevail. No one believes the ufc lies and BS. Wishing you the best!
Love Francis and hate what is being done to him. His story is probably the most inspirational in sports ever.
Totally agree
Francis is someone every man can look up to
The price of freedom is never too much 🔥 ........ That's deep right there. It got to me
All of my respect for you Francis 🇨🇲💪🏿
The only other person to fight out his contract successfully was GSP. I think Francis has the same manager as him
LE LION INDOMPTABLE, LE CHAMPION 😁, C'EST DE ÇA QU'IL S'AGIT!!
Don't rush anything only you truly know your body I hope you get well Champ!!!
Respect to you Francis and team.
You are the greatest..keep it up ❤
More Power to you Brother. Love your story ✊️ May Allah grant you success!
Francis, U are such an inspiration, I dont think I am even half the man u are, sooo much respekt, u are like a real life superhero
Francis should, not only boxing, but MMA out of organization, but on his own like these event boxing matches. Destroy the monopoly of the MMA.
He has already won in life. Shame on the ufc for wasting this man’s potential
Incredible anyone has the nerve to try and pressure this man into anything. He should have the power to negotiate whatever terms he wants. NO ONE has represented the sport better. My upmost respect. I am in complete awe when I learn more about your story, the obstacles that have been overcome, and how you continue to carry yourself with dignity and complete humility regardless of what comes your way. I will follow you anywhere you go UFC or otherwise and wish you success after success after success. That comment regarding Freedom is so on point.
wow. this is truly incredible, and heartbreaking.
You’re the man Francis, get well soon champ! 🙌❤️🩹🙏🏽
Respect 🙏🏾
Let's Go Francis 💪
Un guerrier sur toute la ligne.
stay strong king
Keep it up man much love get well
Irish have your back Francis 🇨🇮
Let's go champ!
Best is yet to come
Respect to Francis always ❤️
Francis ❤️💯
A great guy !
Keep going the King of the heavyweight division💪❤
VICTORY
Same same Big fan from India Chennai talk to us live q/a
My goat! In’sha’allah you’ll get a better contract brother I wanna see you fight Gane again and Jones once and ofc your big money fight w Fury! You deserve it my brother! Keep your head up and hope for a speedy full recovery!
This is what happens when a business puts financial greed ahead of people and human dignity!
💪Francis 🤝
This is Yemi Blaq from Nigeria. This documentary shows us Francis the man..I am proud of you lil bro..well maybe not so lil..🙂
I will follow Francis wherever he goes. The best thing that we can do is that. We are loyal to the predator and no HW fight is credible if he isn't recognized as the baddest man on the planet
He's just a man like you. He isnt God. Sheeps follow the herd. Lions lead the group.
@@ivufit5846 You're missing the point. I'm trying to get him paid as he deserves it
You are a great man Francis Ngannou One love legend…I’m banking on you ❤❤
we love you !!!!
Cannot wait for his return
respect mon frere
he's a great guy
Ngannou Anna don't care about others focus on your power wresting just improving be ready we want see wrestler ngannou and then you are heavy weight Jones top 10 heavyweight on my list current Ngannou Ciryl gane Jon Jones Stipe Curtis England fighter Russian fighter Volkov Tai Derrick if any one wants it they have to fight these guys
The production is insane. This is a well edited documentary series with an amazing story, great music and cheeky cliff hangers. Francis is a smart guy. He learned English ridiculously fast. Well done to the whole team! 🔥💪🏼🙏🏻❤️
This is why MMA needs the Ali Act. When the UFC is refusing to give you a fight because you're not signing their bad contract, you should be able to say "Ok then! I'm fighting the Bellator champion!". But MMA contracts have promotion exclusivity written into them and it's a huge detriment to fighters during their negociations. Fighters want to fight, but the UFC is the one making the fights. So they hold those opportunities hostage to force fighters' hands... We desperately need the Ali Act in this sport.
❤🗣💯
Sergei Pavlovich does the same stuff for 150k. I get that he wants a 1mil a fight contract, and he 100% deserves it over some1 like Adesanya, so I'm sad to see he didn't get it and fight more often.
Francis' Hairline is Back !!!!
#1
As a French man from immigrant parents, I love Francis' story and support his battle for equality and raising fighters' rights. Even though his agent is saying all the right things, something does feel off about him. Maybe I'm wrong but it's just a feeling.
lets goo
free Francis! ::)
Francis will knock anyone out, cant wait to see tyson fury making the mistake of stepping in any sort of fight with the Predator, we will love you forever Francis no matter where or who you will fight!
"The price of freedom is never too much." "You're not going up to LeBron James during game 7 of the finals with a contract." - Yup, you're not doing that to anybody for that matter sounds like an inside job to me was pulled on Francis, Francis gets contract negotiations before his important match up and then, after we can assume things go: 'up in the air' he gets a knee injury from an "excited" sparring partner. Like that's pretty fucking blatant. Or am I just jumping to conclusions? I fear that Francis will never be physically safe if he stays in the UFC. Even gane was attacking that knee in the fight.
Sounds like a conspiracy but it could be true. Nobody knows what is going on inside the minds of crazy businessmen. At the end of the day all they care about it their own profit & money.
go to boxing, ufc took their stance and they're probably not changing much your name is huge, you can fight for the biggest amounts, your life will be set after just 1 match, and still have insanely many people watching and fans behind you
Good job Francis you fumbled the ball.
This is actually wild that the ufc did this
🙌👏🤜
we have something we name karma
I feel sorry for francis. I know the feeling of nowhere to run no where to hide
Vai campeão!!! Eu acredito no seu retorno!!!
✅✅✅✅✅👑👊🏾
He looks crazy powerful from facial structure. Crazy how Stipe was able to overcome in their first bout.
Because nganou have 0 ground game in this time
@@micahjohnson138ground game wasn’t the main factor he just gassed himself out due to lack of fighting iq.
Go get em Francis! Best of luck, they can't hold you down!
Dana pushes for what's best for UFC - It's "Good Business" Mr. Ngannou pushes for what's best for him and his family - It's "ego" *As more fighters leave Dana, we all can CLEARLY see what the REAL issue is.
There’s no doubt the UFC tried everything it could to intimidate Ngannou and get him to lose; they have done the same thing with all the champions they didn’t like
What kind of heat you packin homie? Thats the real question
Honestly, with all due respect, some people in this comment section need to shut up. What do you guys mean by saying that he should vacate the belt? This man worked HARD to be where he is. Why should he give it up to those who haven't earned it? And to those saying that he is greedy for demanding more financial compensation, do you guys know how much a training camp cost? Do you also know UFC fighters don't have health insurance and he has to cover his medical bills for fight injuries, etc. alone? If you were a fighter, will you enter the octagon and have someone beat up on you for $600k? Please, let's put ourselves in these guys' shoes. They fight to entertain us - we pay good money to see it, and the UFC cashes out on their sweat. It's not right. Just give them a share which they can use to take care of themselves. And lastly, to those saying that he needs new management...do you know how hard it is to find loyal people in the business world? He has a team who are his family in the 🇺🇸. Let them be. We should be raising more awareness on the plight of UFC fighters and asking for reforms instead of throwing accusations back at the fighters. Thank you 🙏🏾.
Francis is the type of person to liberate black people.. because u can't break his Will
I want to see francis ngannou vs jon jones but not in ufc. In PFL.
damn
Comment for the algo boost
Everyone: Francis Ngannou Dana White: Francis Nganyu 😂
Your team (manager, coaches) plays you
Francis is surrounded by sharks! What level of education does his management have? How much experience? UFC is a business! Conor McGregor never worried about money! He allowed his talent and focused on selling the fights! When he goes to boxing he will find out things the hard way! Heal up and pray to God & show gratitude!
Agree. I feel like his Management is ripping him off more than the UFC. Feel bad for this dude. he is an awesome human being
2:24 Frozen like Elsa.
Just so you know.... Dana White had beef with his mother.. up until she died and after her death... he still kept the beef going. Francis my brother.. keep your head up, it is what it is... They can't stop your *GREATNESS* ...
We want to see more about the lovely Ngannou! What does he like to do in a day? Is he going to do gaming like Demitrius Johnson? If he does gaming I would love to see him play some of the old games like Spyro, or Crash Bandicoot, or Silent Hill, any games from that Era if it's the best ones.
Holding up the heavyweight division for to long
E. E. Ego is what hurt Dana White 👀😇 and thats a fact ! FRANCIS IS Aready a LEGEND 👑☝he is what Dana WHITE said HE WAS before he switch all the story upside down cause of his HUGE ego.... didnt event put the belt on the man 🙈..i mean come on... dont care about what he said ist all "bullshout"😇 anymway like he said ..... FRANCIS IS THE MAN !! HE IS THE FUTURE OF UFC!! He is the champ he derserve all the shine 👊🏆 NOW TIME GET USE TO IT 👀 before 💸💸
I would like after UFC , à fight with deontay wilder
now I understand why Francis needed to win the Ciryl Gane fight.
They tried to rob my champ !
I wish Francis had better management. This guy isn’t getting the job done. Francis needs a fresh start with his management in my opinion. Maybe hire Ali Abdelazeez (spelling?) perhaps? He seems to be able to cut deals with the UFC and get his fighters paid appropriately. This current manager of Francis’ has just burned his bridges with the UFC. It’s unfortunate for Francis, but it is what it is. Love you Francis! I wish you nothing but the very best champ. You are an inspiration!
Yes, his Manager is basically ripping him off. But he probably won't leave him, they will guilt him into staying and suck him dry
i dont understand ...why no mma pages are posting about this
Francis doesnt understand that its all business. Whats neccessarily best for him is not th ebest for UFC. He should be grateful and humble
Jake Paul's UFA will actually do bits for UFC fighters.
Previously on Lost…..
Stand for something or fall for anything lol
nganôu babassola of afeikan the Brazilian
Stop holding the division back. Thanks
What type of contract does he want, excluding boxing ?
I wanna see him fight jones.
