Back at UFC 260 this weekend, Francis Ngannou will face former enemy Stipe Miocic.
3 years ago, at UFC 220 in January 2018, Miocic and the Takedown of the Championship Division made the nunnou “swallow” to give in after 5 rounds.
So it was not too difficult to understand when Francis Nguynou shared that he had prepared quite a lot about the Wrestling, including inviting Welterweight Kamaru Usman champion to the corner to direct himself in the upcoming match. But in particular, how much did the “program” Wrestling of the nunnou increase?
“We practice comprehensively – MMA is not the land of fighters who only know how to stand,” said Erick Nicksick, Francis Nunnou's coach.
“We are guaranteed that Francis will progress in the Wrestling segment, whether they take the initiative to knock the opponent or find ways to fight Takedown in the upcoming match.”
“It is worth mentioning that Francis was much more scary than before. He” handled “many friends practicing with Takedown, forcing them to fall to the floor and pound them with punches.”
“Francis is very comfortable with Wrestling techniques, whether attacked or defensive, and I can see that he will not be afraid to fight if he needs to use Wrestling in the next match.”
