WOW! Francis Ngannou Shows Off Why it’s Not Just Power That Makes Him Look Scary

UFC Heavyweight Francis Ngannou took to Twitter and shared a video snippet of his recent training session on the speedbag. The video grab comes via the Cameroonian fighter’s YouTube channel that documents his daily life and fight camp. Not to mention, Ngannou looks to be in prime shape as he tees off of the bag with ferocity.

‘The Predator’ has been flirting with the idea of making an appearance on the boxing circuit with a high profile match-up. He has expressed a desire to step under the bright lights of the cage in conjunction with his UFC career. Moreover, Ngannou first began his journey in combat sports with the pursuit of being a boxer.

Francis Ngannou: Forward momentum

The former UFC title challenger has had a high profile tenure with his short stint with the promotion thus far. He has managed to become one of the biggest marquee stars who have yet to actualize the gold strap. His journey to the top has come with its share of trials that ‘The Predator’ has seemingly been able to overcome.

Francis Ngannou entered the UFC back in December 2015 and was immediately onto the radar of fight fans. His uber-tier physique meant he was easily one of the most athletic fighters on the roster. Additionally, he began racking up back-to-back stoppage victories, quickly propelling himself to the upper-echelons of the division.

His coming-out party came at UFC 218, where he secured one of the most vicious knockouts seen in modern MMA. He finished former K-1 kickboxer Alistair Overeem with a monstrous uppercut and was a bonafide superstar. In light of these events, a title shot against the dominant champion Stipe Miocic would be in his future.

Although he would suffer two back-to-back losses in his career, Francis Ngannou managed to launch a successful resurgence. He is currently on a 4 fight stoppage streak with an average fight time of just 40 seconds. Chiefly, another crack at gold is a foregone conclusion for the heavyweight, given his recent performances.

Fight fans will be wrought with anticipation to see where the knockout machine goes next in this exciting phase of his career.
