“Your blessings triple when you have gratitude” -Mike Tyson

If Francis's journey doesn't inspire you in any kind of way, I'm pretty sure nothing ever will.
His journey made my excuses so pathetic and lame ....Francis has motivated the **** out of me.
🙌
He is 6’4 dude where do people keep coming up with these false stats
@@Scoopsaz88 he’s 6,6, leon edwards is listed as 6,0 and he’s 6,2 which is incorrect
@@jsr7183happens when you are hauling sand in a quarry for 8+ hours a day. Phenomenon called farmer strength
Ngannou is a resilient warrior, still can’t believe he knocked Fury on his first professional boxing match
Sad that 99% or more of illegal immigrants bot only dont have that story at the end……
now knowing his backstory its no wonder he beat Tyson fury
I think you meant to say “beat Tyson”
@@Scarface_saiyan figured that was obvious
@@Zylothical sadly we live in a world where it isnt even though to us it is
Jesus christ. The story of the life of this man needs a movie
Considering what he has gone through it would be a 3hr long movie minimum!
@@thegombiea trilogy 100 min each
who could play him? lol
@@iTzNiKoYoAnd can it translate into a movie?
@@iTzNiKoYo That person might not exist yet, but it has to be done
He is a prime example of a stoic, and a gentle giant. Freedom and justice are core values for him. He won’t compromise them for money, which means he cannot be bribed. He also clearly doesn’t like bullies, and bullying (no wonder he and Dana clash). He doesn’t like to talk trash and is clearly outside his comfort zone when he tries to. It’s just not him. Does he have an ego? Of course. But a healthy, humble one. Not a pompous one.
It is very rare to find a human being that exudes so many qualities in a single package - calm confidence, intelligence, incredible physical abilities, the technical skills of hand-to-hand combat, and virtuous qualities like compassion.
It’s why no one is worrying that Francis will get corrupted by the money or fame like so many men have. What he had to go through and saw in his life was enough darkness, and he knows better. This is what makes him different from the Jon Jones and Conor McGregors of the world, who easily let themselves slip to vices.
Can’t wait to see what the next chapter in Francis’s life will look like, but it’s full of amazing possibilities. Maybe even an acting career? He seems like a quick study in anything he puts his mind to. Imagine that...
Great men he really is a special one
he will be president of cameroon
@@TheMMAHawkunfortunately thanks to all those qualities he disqualifies for any political position whatsoever
Francis is the definition of "How bad do you want it?" Dude made it, now he can support his family forreal!
The reason Francis is so special and such a force to reckon with is because he’s been thru more hardships and roadblocks even before he got into his fighting career. The stuff he deals with now is like a picnic compared to what he’s had to deal with in his past
And ppl dare to say he’s scared of jones
@@hibot4531 Yeah and coming from Dana White, who never had a fight in his life.
Lol so they think he is scared of jones a fighting in the same combat sport with him but he went on to fight the greatest boxer of this generation in a different combat sport than the one he is use to?they have to make it make sense?dana white really twisted the brains of these people 😂😂
You can't say it's purely due to environment though.
There were other people in the same situation as Ngannou, and they didn't become anything like him.
There's something innately special about him.
@@hibot4531 No ofcource not. Nobody who is a pro high level MMA fighter is scared of anybody. What that means when Dana says it is that Francis was smart enough to realise its a dangerous fight and set a higher pay demand in negotiations. So basicly Dana is saying he priced himself out meanwhile Ngannou ofcource believed he could get that kinda of money outside of the UFC for more than 1 fight which tbh no one really thought he could which is why Dana taught it was a bluff and didnt agree to Ngannous weird terms.Francis proved everybody wrong and now will get money fights on hes terms.
Francis has opened mma gym’s in Cameroon, to give his home town kids the chance to better themselves like he has. He is truly a great guy. Amazing fighter too.
imagine what he can do now with these paydays
God bless you bro for think so dear❤
Francis would've been a king or a conqueror if he was born 1,000 years ago. The man is a warrior and there's just something special about him in both mind and body.
Gosh that’s a Netflix animated series in the making for real. Robe slung over 1 should. Warhammer in one hand. King Ngannou - Oooo shhhhiiitttt!!!
@@vicepdKing Ngannou has a nice ring to it
@@nostalgicbliss5547factsss
I would've been a King. Ngannou would've been my highest warrior or warlord. Together we'd conquer
He does have a Conan type story
This man gives me such hope for humanity. A man that all men can look up to and aspire to be like. Every time I’m in my boxing class and I’m gassed out and want to quit during endurance training, I think of Ngannou, and the warrior’s path that he followed to be here today. He gives me strength. Shout out to Mike Tyson as well. Both of them heroes.
@@suprasaiyen2139
You misread or misunderstood. Ngannou gives him hope, not faith.
@@suprasaiyen2139lmao stop trynna be tough, you sound so laaaaaame
@@suprasaiyen2139get off TH-cam and do something for yourself instead of commenting on someone else’s journey
@@ScramTekFaith is having hope in something.
@@12MRJERSEY
Faith is belief. If you have faith in something, that belief is 100% and you don’t question it.
Hope is desire. If you have hope in something, that hope is positive but also includes acceptance of the possibility of failure.
He wasn’t suppose to make it but defied all the odds…the man is a living legend
im Algerian and hes right we have the largest and most dangerous desert in the world, for him to cross and survive you know god was on his side, nice guy from good family, deserves all the success
Props to tyson fury you changed this mans life regardless of what happened in the fight you had a part to play in uplifting another person by providing a platform
Then deontay made fury😊
@@Fredhamneweyin one way yes, he give him the oppportunity to bounce back
Agreed.
@@FredhamneweyHe did. Ad Fury paid it forward. Eventually Wilder and Ngannou will fight as well and I'm almost certain they will split it down the middle.
Great men doing great things.
Typical comes to give props to another man on his own video 😂
Francis is like a saint who moves quietly amongst us. In these dark times his good conduct shines like a star, Thank Mr Ngannou you are an inspiration to all.
They say true might doesn't make noise.
Ngannou’s journey in life in itself is truly amazing, and he’s proving time and time again that he has it. A people’s champ.
@@Muskeln-kaufendekeep crying
@@Muskeln-kaufendegrade a hatred #1 hater
Zero evidence shows your idnorance is fueling your hatred towards another man's success
@@Muskeln-kaufendeparading around the comments spamming the same drivel.
Youre just sad he’s your better in every way. Hes a bonafide ubermensch. Dont be jealous, be inspired.
You weak lot just cry steroids every time an african has great physique and power
Yall going out sad asf
he is but it also shows illegal migration must stop forever. it kills more than it safes
I’m going to teach my future kids the story of Francis Ngannou! He is the epitome of self determination and stoicism! He is a King! 🤴🏿
This is what makes tough people. I will root for him in whatever endeavor he strives toward. Win or Lose.
Francis officially had THE hardest background in combat sports. This ain’t no growing up in the hood, favelas, crime, etc etc. this shit is international and scraps
Exactly a lot of people that think they had it rough, didn’t even go through what 10% of what Francis went through. This wasn’t no regular hardship, this man was born into misery. The fact that he made it this far is beautiful and extremely inspirational, needs a movie made about his life.
Nganou is freak of the muscle and strength he has given by God
How can you not love and and admire this man. His biography will be timeless.
Francis has become a great inspiration. Let's not forget that his mother did well bringing him up like this.
What a great man to aspire to be like
Some people are just born stoic, some of us have to learn to be stoic
Francis’s english since this interview has improved tremendously.
This was so great. Very good narrating. As you said, the story of Francis deserves to be made in a movie.
It has to bro. They've made movies of less, I'm surprised it's not.
Nganou need a big budget hollywood movie about him !
OSCAR WINNING MOVIE FOR SURE ..WITH A GREAT CAST AND NOLAN AS A DIRECTOR
played by the rock! fc hollywood , leave him alone muricans.
@@martrog3429 The Rock is not an Oscar caliber actor. He would need much better actor.
It is hilarious AF to think about that this is the GUY who the ufc and particularly Dana white try to literally removed him from the history books ... Hilarious AF
Im so glad someone noticed how Stoic Francis is, not just in the cliche "no emotion" front, rather the more substantial concepts and practices of Stoicism. --- Francis embodies Stoicism, from not caring what others say about him, to focusing on what he can control, to always striving to improve and learn... Francis is amazing, man 👊👊
This is one of the most inspiring stories I’ve ever heard. Humbles my soul
Just know that society is so messed up and people are so negative that if he got KOd by Fury early, people would’ve tried to make out that he was a failure. What this man has done is amazing.
Underrated comment
This video inspired me to reach out to his foundation and offer my help and experience. Thank you for sharing his story.
👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
Thank you for paying it forward
Can't believe I never had the bandwidth to truly learn about the truly inspirational tale of Francis Ngannou, despite being a UFC fan. What he did with Fury was remarkable, adding another chapter to an incredible story. Inspired, moved and humbled. How can he not be a new favourite fighter? Special man. Hard times make strong men. I will follow his career closely from now on and support him passionately. Quality video and content, props.
Welcome to the club. I’ve been locked in on Francis since early 2018. Be happy you came onboard now as opposed to back then. It was excruciating watching him go through the last stages in the UFC and after. The people talkin shit without knowing about who he is as a person and what his journey had been was beyond measure …and infuriating.
If you don’t know Francis story you don’t know MMA
@@fxuiits a shame that a loooot of mma fans dont know francis story , now its changing for sure but he was overshadowed way to much in the ufc
This is one of the greatest sporting stories of all time. There is no comprehension by an entitled westerner including myself about what kind of spirit you must need to have to endure that and become what N’gannou has become.
I don't know him personally but he seems like a gentle guy... And his accent also suggests that 😂. Anyway i think he deserve it... All the blessings that he got
This man deserve a movie
He is already a legend in my eyes! Great athlete and quality human being.
this man is incredible role model to all humans his humbleness is beautiful
Francis Ngannou is an inspiration and blessing to humanity ❤️💯✊🏿
This will definitely blow up soon. Good work man. 🖤
his warrior status comes more from his virtue than his physical strength... being strong is one thing but knowing how to properly handle... and use it to the benefit of others is something entirely different
Become the person you needed but never showed up. Become the hero who shows up! The best thing a man can be.
I’ve always been a Boxing fan and don’t really like UFC so naturally I never heard of Ngannou. But now I know him and he has gained my full respect not just as a Boxer but as a human being. He is a great human being and it’s a privilege to be able to see him join the boxing community and become the next Heavyweight champion of the world in not too distant future.
A film about his story would be incredible. It's just who would be able to play him, he's so unique.
Personality-wise, Francis Ngannou is the antithesis of Conor McGregor.
Never really followed MMA, so Ngannou was a new name to me, but what an amazing achievement. Usyk has consistent grace as well, but Ngannou is bullet proof.
What a man! His story is unreal. To come from such adversity and to stay so humble with everything he has achieved is so admirable. Total respect.
It's crazy to see how much power is inside the mind of a person.. He went through some of the hardest times any human being could go through he rose above it all chasing a dream to become a boxer after watching Mike tyson.. along his journey he became a mma champion to then finally step in the ring as a boxer after being trained by the man he was inspired by .. people say the power of manifestation is in the mind of the person .. all he had to do was quit n he would have failed.. its an unbelievable story and it just shows you what people are truly capable of if they really want it
Amazing. Sent chills down my couch.
"You cant even ask them, they are still knocked out"- Mike Tyson. Best line of the Video 😅
Ngannou is a real champion. A real inspiration. If he can become a success with his background, then we all should be able to... But you can't teach heart.
Very proud of this man.
I'm a Nigerian out here in the UK and you statement here hit different i.
Francis is a modern day Sounjata Keita . The man who had all odd against him but become one of the best Emperor Africa had
A movie on Ngannou's life journey will be amazing.
THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD
Francis gives you faith in humanity
He speaks nicely
He comes across as very calm person
This is why he’s got a very fierce but calm demeanour
May he live a long life and be blessed Mr. Ngannou
A true hero. A true role model.
You would think that a man who has been through what Francis has been through would be arrogant and mean, but this guy is just so humble and soft-spoken. A gentle giant. Real tough men don't act tough.
Francis is one of the greatest examples of what to aspire to be for young men. Becoming an absolute monster with a heart of gold and a stoic mind. He is a real life hero to us all.
This is great and I'd be very interested to watch a full documentary of his life story and struggles in the style that you did in the first few minutes of the video.
Mike Tyson can be so hilarious 😂.
The last part where he said Ngannou hits so hard and "... You can't ask them 'cos they're still knocked out." 😂😂😂
one of the best videos i’ve ever seen
Actually, Fury didn't disrespect Francis as an individual. Fury opened the door for Francis.
Wells that’s debatable
@@Sene_-wf2pyExplain, Einstein🤔
I love his journey. It's so inspiring. Not giving up on his dreams when challenges came. More power to you Francis Ngannou. God bless you and all your loved ones 🙏🏿
Francis Ngannou is a true Champion! Fury could learn a few things, both in and out of the ring, from Ngannou.
I guess that’s why he’s so good at fighting. No matter what you do this isn’t even going to be close to the worst experience he handled already
This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever watched, thank you brother for that content.
A Francis film would be a blockbuster, all the ingredients are in. What a man!
Shout out to that gym owner who let him train for free before anyone knew who he was, he had no idea how much that would benefit all of combat sports.
He finna be on top of the world in boxing, that fight was just a warm up of just what he is capable of and training he bout to go through. His tenacity in this sport is very high and will only get higher.
agreed, we need a movie (or mini series) of this warrior
I like him cause he's a good person at heart, i can tell.
What a Beautiful video man, the commentary, music, images. thank you for this type of content
Ngannou is an incredible human being in all aspects.
Man is not a stoic. He’s just great
Why do you think he is not one?
Glad to have found your channel and video it blows up. Awesome work.
Huge respect to Ngannou
Francis N’Gannou is the greatest fighter EVER!! Been fighting in real life not only in the cages or boxing ring.
❤Thank you for this video. It made me cry. I emulate to be humble, successful and stoic like Francis Nganu. I'm grateful for everything in my life. I'll never take anything for granted
Thank you for the video. I've already watched the hour long documentary but this was still valuable, learned a few things. Went straight into your video about Mike Tyson's philosophy.
This is one of the best channels I’ve seen on TH-cam no joke. I’m subscribing
Francis you are the greatest ❤
An amazing soul ❤️
Great work. Thank you for sharing.🙏🏽
My man. Love your thumbnails. Also, love Stoicism, obviously. Thanks for the work you do
Great video, I was saying this all along, the amount of struggle this man went through, he deserves everything. And very likable human being as well, humble and honest. What a story, just an unbelievable story.
La souffrance c'est l'école de la sagesse beaucoup de courage champion je suis très fière de toi je suis derrière j'arrive aussi
Amazing video. Thank you!
And huge respect for Francis.
