- Francis Ngannou delivers a knockout episode on Club Shay Shay, going toe-to-toe with Shannon Sharpe. The punches aren't just in the ring - Francis is throwing verbal jabs, expressing his desire to take on heavyweight giants Deontay Wilder, Anthony Joshua and rematch with Tyson Fury. He takes a swing at UFC contracts and Dana White, revealing some behind-the-octagon heat. Francis also says he would fight Jon Jones. But the real knockout is Francis's incredible journey from Africa to Paris in 14 months - barbwire fences, inflatable boats, and more adversity - which displays why Francis isn’t afraid to go up against anyone. How about a culture lesson? Francis breaks down the true meaning of polygamy in Africa. Also, Francis shares the moment he knew he made it after traveling to the USA for the first time. Hold onto your gloves; this episode's a title bout of surprises. For example, you’ll never guess who Francis want to play him in a movie. Hint: it rhymes with “Skilled This Fella”. It's a heavyweight talk you won't want to miss!

You got Francis?!?! I’m definitely tuned in. You weren’t lying when you said you had some good people in the works the other night on nightcap
I remember that too. excited for this 1
Saint-Denis (new Special Forces UFC fighter) next please.
U sleeping on unk
@@starseeddeluxeÇa sent le fan ! J'espère qu'il viendra également ! Cheers
Nightcap shout outs baby.
Let's f'in go
What this man did in that boxing match was absolutely incredible when you consider all factors. He’s already a legend.
Gonna be a movie already, beat the HW champion of the world
Francis has won in life.
What he's done IN LIFE ITSELF is absolutely incredible.
on top of how he got to europe
you mean a gift to the top of the mountain for ur first ever fight? How come nobody ever gives Fury his rightful respect? He was knocked down by the 2 hardest hitting fighters in the WORLD & he got up & beat both of them!
@@2stroketyson79 he did. Fury tough. But bro was not a professional boxer. And got a knockdown against the best in the world rn. Huge.
I’ve never seen Francis so comfortable. He was doing most of the talking 😂. I love it man, thank you Unk!
Francis did his thing in one on one. It was like a conversation between two friends 💯.
He is an introvert, they talk when they are comfortable with you
@@munaike3622So true 👍
That's what I love about Shannons interview style
The sign of a great interviewer
The craziest thing about Francis is that the stuff he went through in real life is even wilder than the stuff he managed to acomplish in combat sports
Is amazing. 🙏
Real talk
Like walking 6 miles to school everyday.. just insane🤯
Yeah, I cried a couple times during the interview man I got a little emotional. Hearing his story is so uplifting and motivating… people always can come up with 500 reasons why they can’t do something, or they wouldn’t be good enough for this or that… but Francis is a living success story that I have not heard anything like🙊🙊
I'd love to know about the things he said he'll never talk about.
I grew up broke and absolutely 1000% support this man's struggle from extreme poverty to champ to workers rights guardian.
Amazing story and inspirational.
Amen very true 👌👌
You think what you went through can compare to him
@@joshuaprince6580Stop comparing or minimizing other people's struggles especially when you have never met or heard there stories. Just celebrate Ngannou's from rags to success story bud🙂
@@joshuaprince6580 why can't it? Because Francis is African? Stfu
You grew up white and privileged in a 1st world country, stay silent and humble
This was a great interview. Francis is so smart and a high level human being 💪🏽
Not really, Shannon got to be the dumbest interviewer in the world
@@acecarter1717😂😂😂😂 dude also speaks n sounds dumb as sheet too
@@acecarter1717 31:52 lol wtf does he know 😂
Francis' obviously high intelligence is such an overlooked aspect of his story. He could barely speak English just a few years ago and in such a short time he's able to conduct such a nuanced and insightful interview in what must be (at the very least) his third language. This, plus his indomitable will, does much to explain how he was able to overcome everything from the sand mines to Dana White.
His humbleness and charisma are absolutely off the charts as well
@Sporkonafork1 Agreed. Definitely a great example of humanity. We could use more of him in the world.
I was Just about to speak to the fact that Francis’s English has improved overnight‼️
This is one of my favorites moments since 10 years! Seeing my Cameroonian brother being interviewed by my best man on american TV Shannon Sharpe. I'm so proud and happy right now. Thank Unc Shay and thank Francis for making us so proud.
🫡
Best man on American TV is a very interesting take. The numbers def don't back that statement up
@@TheBullyDisciple I mean my favorite man on TV
You're best man 😂😂😂 c'mon now fam that's weird
@@jasonbilly5247 😂 Excuse my English men; just trying to say he's my favorite 🤣
What an amazing episode! Francis is literally the Baddest Man of the Planet. This mans story is incredible and he is still going strong. What an inspiration. Unc got them crazy guests up in here 🔥 🔥
Jon Jones*
@@PeePeeMilk Francis Ngannou is way better than trash alcoholic Jon Jones
There is a very specific reason why Jon waited for Francis to be on his way out before he decided to come back. Jon is the greatest fighter of all time but he simply did not want the fight against Francis. @@PeePeeMilk
Everyone is an expert. Y'all make stuff up and present it as truth. Smh.
Jon bones Jones
Wow, only an hour into this sit down and I have to say that Club Shay Shay is just absolutely killing it right now. These sit downs have been Top Tier. 👏
Most of them yea I can say one of then he didn't have to waste my time! Cannot get that hour back
So help me understand better coz I'm from south africa , how is unc memory so good ? Like his facts game is crazy, does It have sumthng to do with his football past?? And position he played ?
Seeing my Cameroonian 🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲 brother with Unc is one of the best moments of my life and again on my 50th birthday. This is absolutely amazing. To say I am proud is an understatement. Thank you so much Unc.....Merci beaucoup.❤🎉
This has been the best conversation to date. Shannon's selection of interviews is top tier!
I'm just starting to watch this one, but Marshawn is my favorite of his interviews.
The way Francis can articulate his thoughts in English is amazing. I think with the all praise he gets on his physical talents, his intelligence is even higher in my opinion.
Francis' intelligence is not higher than his athletic ability, you fool. Don't get me wrong - I think Francis is fairly smart, but if his intelligence were greater than his physically ability, he would be a 200IQ genius working in academia
The dude is intelligently articulating himself in his 3rd language! You gotta relax.
@@SNEED_FEED he’s about to get another 20 million + payday after he knocks Anthony Joshua out, tell me, how many scientists in Academia are making that much money? No reason to call me a fool, I’m entitled to my own opinion.
@@OwlOfNivica I have every reason to call you a fool. Do you really think Francis is smarter than he his physically gifted? Is his intelligence really his best asset? Does his success NOT come from the fact that he's in the top 0.1% of physical specimens we've ever seen in combat sports history? You bonehead 🤣 a
@@SNEED_FEEDthe fact you’re undermining the fact he speaks 3 different languages that alone speaks volumes.
I thoroughly enjoyed this sit down. Francis is super intelligent. Another amazing episode.
Best shay shay episode yet. This guy is one of the greatest souls to touch this earth
Honestly👌🏽
Brilliant interview. Francis is softly spoken super intelligent humble and and absolute killer . What a combination.. So glad he’s winning in life coming from his history… an inspiration to the younger generations
Definitely a legend in my book. I am of Haitian descent, and a lot of my country people went through identical situations in search of a better life. To have gone through that much hardship and still able to keep that high level of dedication to continue to achieve success. I am inspired. God bless Francis Ngannou. Much respect to Uncle ShayShay for asking the good questions and allowing the man time to respond. Great dialogue!
The fact that he is concerned about all fighters and not just himself speaks volumes. Great man, great fighter, great human being!
Shannon Sharpe is a former top athlete who handled the interview excellently for 2 hours, putting his ego aside! He focused on the inspiring and exciting story of Champ, Francis Ngannou without even emphasizing at any time the exchange with his own journey! There was no time when he made him feel uncomfortable or had any bias or judgment, good management of the dynamism of the exchange!
Student of journalism huh?
I agree but I don’t think there would be anything wrong with him bringing up his own experience
@@kashmoni1085Maybe not but UNC is just generally a good human being who just knows how to be fair, patient, knows how to ask the right questions and make the guest very comfortable to answer and even reveal more than expected 😉 You just don't learn that in any Journalism school and that's why a lot of these so called professional journalists don't bring out very high quality interviews like this😢🙄😂
I absolutely LOVE this conversation/interview!!!! It was awesome to listen & learn Francis Ngannou's path & story.
Thank you for the interview. It may not get the most views, but I think this might be your best interview. Very inspirational.
Club shay shay the best podcast ever. Hat off Shannon watching you from Italy 🇮🇹
I'm glad Unc invested for better equipment. The first episodes had terrible audio.
This man truly started from the bottom. Thank you for the honesty and inspiration.
Amazing story. This is a beautiful interview and he drop so many gems about gratitude, resilience and his core values. He is a good soul.
Gotta make a movie about this guy what a story much respect 🙏🏾
Facts
Netflix series. This interview was 2hrs….A 2hr movie won’t do it justice
Nice to see Uncle Shannon and Francis Ngannou the pride of Africa and 🇨🇲 🌍
No American has an excuses
Have watched most of these and this one to me was the best yet! Awesome story and makes me appreciate more the opportunities we have as Americans. Great interview Shannon and I am now a fan of Francis! Look forward to the next one!
Opportunities acquired by depriving other people, other countries, of their own resources, right?
I was a certified hater until this interview. Was really disappointed when he left the UFC and thought he was ducking Jones. After his fight with Tyson and seeing his demeanor in the interview, this dude is a class act. Nothing but respect for him
Dana not paying him what he deserves..
Fare play bru
hhahahahahaah something wrong with u if you think he ducked jones, what threat does jones pose him
Check yourself for a change.
In what multiverse are you living in to believe this man ducked Jon Jones ffs lol. Glad you stopped beliveing Danas lies
this is legit the best interview of Francis! finally someone asked him such a different questions! Francis you are the Champion
That food question nearly killed me!!! The realest and most honest answer possible!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
We take so much for granted. Shout out Francis. I really like him more than ever now. Thank you Shannon for a great interview. Keep on pushing. I learned a lot about you watching your show as well. It seems like people who started off with nothing respect what they have achieved and people who have been handed things just criticize other people and don't realize what they have.
Thank you for supporting the platform of this remarkable individual, Francis Ngannou. He is well known in the MMA bubbles but regarding the entire combat world, he's still relatively under the radar. This man's achievement up to this point considering where he came from is nothing short of a miracle but thru hardwork and dedication, not luck. He is a remarkable human being as well, not just an athlete extraordinaire. More should get behind him to celebrate and support his story, which believe it or not, only has just began. The Pride of Cameroon!!
2 Hour sit down and still feels like there's more to unpack. 👑
I just found Shay Shay because of this interview with Francis. But maan, this guy is the best interviewer in the world for me now. Francis was never interrupted, and Shay asked him all the questions i had in my head while watching this. One of the best interviews i have seen.
What this man did in his life not just boxing makes him a Legend✌🏾
That man needs a movie.
Francis is so brutally honest. He will even ignore social ettiquettes because of his priority for honesty. When Shannon tries to compare boxing to acting and Francis doesn't agree and he doesn't mean to.come off abrasive but his honesty is not what people are.used to, people are used to other people making being nice a priority. It's interesting to see different aspects of different cultures.
Beautifully said
Innocent brutal honesty seems to be an African trait.
Ya I can see that he’s a real one. But also he hasn’t been focused on socialization for a very long time. So those social muscles are weak.
@@beedebawng2556 Not really. I know some African cultures that are the exact opposite.
@@afrofantasylit I would say it's mostly a west African trait. I've observed East Africans and South Africans prioritize politeness over honesty.
"Everyone would go down..." I agree big Frank! Can't wait til his next fight.
never call this man frank again, that's disrespectful af lmaoooo
Big Franc
When Ngannou said that he wasn't bragging or being cocky.....the man was telling the truth lmao.
When Shannon said “now cmon Francis!”, Francis looked so confused 😂😂😂 i like how his spirit is so innocent
Francis has the most interesting story in combat history. It’s definitely a movie.
Uncle Shannon been getting some crazy guests lately!! 👀🔥 Francis will be undisputed boxing champ by next year
Thanks for representing a country Cameroon bro we are very proud of you for all your achievement in life🙏🇨🇲✊
UNC did it again!...killin'em every time with the guest interviews!...when u think u had it rough theres always someone who had/got it worse!...s/o to FRANCIS - even bigger fan now watching&hearing his journey! 🫡
Francis is such a good role model. This episode starts with Francis saying that Fury "took him lightly." Francis is such a humble beast. He shows that you can be the baddest and still respect others. (Recall that Wilder didn't have the same level of etiquette.)
Even an untrained Fury should have beat him easily considering Tyson started boxing 🥊 at 6. People should stop making excuses for Fury, like Wilder did for his costume… You can’t have it both ways 😂😂😂
nah@@camere
Wilder & Ngannou represents a totally different Upbringing 😏
Host asked him do you think he would go down after punch. Everybody goes down 😂
I'm Camerounian and im so proud of Ngannou
I'm Nigerian and I'm proud of Ngannou too, best combat sport athlete in the world today hands down.
Im American and also very proud of him
The world is proud of Francis
He shut up and battered Luke
AJ owns his soul
One of the best interviews ever and one of the best ppl to interview! Much respect 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾❤️🔥
Great interview. Shannon is becoming the best interviewer in the internet. He is funny, intelligent, lets the guest speak and asks great follow up questions.
Club Shay Shay and Nightcap are the best things on TH-cam rn💯
Plus it is what it is
I can’t wait to watch a movie on his life. A humble legend and champion
Loved the conversation. My man "Predator" is a true introvert like me. After some time he was exhausted talking while Unc kept going 😅😅😅🤙🏾
This has been the most inspirational interview I’ve ever seen. Thank you for sharing it with us.
I was saving this interview to watch over the weekend and I am not disappointed. Great interview with 2 great men!
What an absolute gentleman warrior.
So impressive.
Kudos Francis
Francis’s story is one the most inspiring things I’ve heard
This man needs to make a movie of his life when it’s all set and done 💯
Protect this man at all cost 🇿🇦
Thank you Shannon for bringing on this legend!! Great guest! Good insight from both sides! Thank you for not tearing the man down, but being an equal sitting next to him. We UFC fans have a lot of respect for Francis, for his story, his background. And him going against the undisputed heavyweight champ as a first fight is just unheard of… Francis is one of my heros🙏🙏
I took my time to watch the whole video over the course of three days. And mehn, I enjoyed every minute of this absolutely interesting and inspiring interview.
More success in life to you Francis.
Great interview I’ve watched Francis his whole career he’s speaking English now better than people that’s been in US their whole life
I swear I would hang around Francis just to listen to his wisdom
This interview is really dope
Caught me by surprise with this one, but I'm tuned in 🔥 🔥
This man's life was his confidence the things he's been through would destroy most men sports aside
What a great interview. I like how it started with the Fury fight and then what lead him to the pinnacle. Inspiring.
Great Interview I’m a proud Cameroonian 🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲 thank Unc and thank you Francis for making us proud
I can't wait for Ocho and you to be discussing this interview on Nightcap..
Wow, what a man, brilliant interview. Francis has an incredible story. He shows what ambition, determination & courage will do for you.
There is one thing about Ngannou that most people either don't know or misunderstand. The guy has a very high IQ in Combat Sports and he's a very quick learner! This guy started fighting at a very late stage and look at what he's already doing??! He's the most scary guy we've seen in combat sports recently. He's built like an NFL running back, just look at him with Shannon and Shannon is a very big guy. I don't think Fury wants anything to do with this guy again!
He's more built like a defensive end than a running back.
More like a linebacker
Well said but. . . 6'5 265lbs NFL linebacker or NFL defensive lineman 😅😂
@@akin9868 right. The average height of a linebacker is 6'2 and the average weight is 240. Both smaller than what Francis is listed at. Defensive ends average is 6'4 and 273. That's pretty much Francis' numbers. I don't watch NFL that much , I'm more of a college guy, but these guys don't know what they're talking about
Great episode. This is a great man, not just fighter
Every time I hear Francis my heart soars for him ❤
What an ambassador for the African, underdog, and the collectivist over the individualist
So proud of this guy Oklahoma City here. What a inspiring story.
Francis Ngannou is an amazing human being. I have so much respect for him.
“ if they worried when I’m gone, that mean I’m gone already “😭😂
Lol 😂😂
His story needs to become a movie. Hard to listen to him speak and not be motivated to do any and everything to make your dreams become a reality.
You're watching it! ❤️ IRL
Agreed 💯💯
Impressive story. You are an inspiration to a lot of us, Francis!!! Your determination & drive is infective. Wish you all the best & success. Thank you Shay Shay for your work & highlighting success stories for the younger generation.
Francis seems so calm in interviews but seeing him in the Ring or Octagon show a brave Gladiator 😤
Francis makes me want to work harder. This man went through so much to follow his dreams. He basically came from nothing literally to get where he is now. I have to capatilize on every opportunity i get.
Great interview. Much respect to you and Francis👊🏾💪🏾👍🏾
Incredible interview, thank you both.
Man this got deep at the 1 hour mark. Great interview
I'm 19 minutes in. 40 minutes to go lol.
This was a great one of then interviews . Can't wait to follow this man journey.
It’s hard to believe Francis doesn’t speak English before..this alone is an inspiration to me and I hope many felt the same.
Thank God for tough times - it brings out tough men with great resilience and character ❤
Great interview! Breaks up the standard boxing interviews he normally does, Club Club Shay awesome 👌🏽 work
The Club and Nightcap my Favorites. UNK bringing that pressure
This is probably the best interview yet. How can you even root against this guy and live with yourself.
You don't have to be the best at one thing..be good at alot of things..great fighting quote. Can't wait to see his life in a movie..great person with a great story
Amazing episode, incredible story, thank you.
Francis really is a special person
You are truly the baddest of the planet when you can callout Fury, Jones, Dana White in all their respective fields knowing that you can beat them all.
I love Francis...ain't no way he would beat Jon Jones in an MMA match
@@Prototype3710Jon Jones will fight Stipe and retire.
He's not gonna fight the Russian..
He's not gonna fight the Brit.
He knows he'll get smoked.
There's a reason he sat out for nearly 3 years and waited until contract negotiations with Francis and the UFC were nebulous.
@@p51424 Jon doesn't have to fight up and coming fighters. He is the GOAT. He has been fighting the who's who of MMA for like 15 years. He fights belt holders and number 1 contenders.
@@Prototype3710 Facts
@@p51424 Look at this casual. Last I checked Francis ran away when Jones came back.
Sick interview. Was dope to get to hear Francis go a deeper into his story on getting to America
Very very good and honest interview. Good variety and flow of questions too. Good job.
Ngannou is amazing. His Lifestory is Oscar worthy!
That gym is a crazy flex😂 But seriously watching Francis evolve as a person and fighter is such an inspiration 💪🏾💯
Mr Sharp am going to just say what a lot of us are thinking. Your interview style is impeccable you give people a opportunity to explain there stories and know just when to shift to a different direction amazing interview. Salute to Francis his story is in credible
Francis and Unc just getting down to the nitty gritty.. fantastic episode. Makes me an even bigger Francis fan.. Great job Unc!
Loved this interview and Francis is definitely a legend. To be able to through all that and become a champ is great, but he is humble in how he expresses himself and also when he talks about the difficulties that he went through he does not want to make people to feel sorry for what he went through, because one could say that he also saw it as a process of what made him. He has a very interesting perspective on life, hardships and achievements. Good stuff.
All props to the champ, especially proud to be maaqiza 237🇨🇲. Let’s also take a minute to thank SS for an incredible interview, not assuming or over talking but actually having a conversation like someone who wants to learn . This was great
U killin it Unc! Love to see you do more combat sports content. Keep it comin!
I hope he fights again because he can change the Heavyweight Division for the better 💯💯
Didn't even think twice before clicking! NGANNOU PRIDE OF AFRICA
