  • Yeah.
  • Yeah, absolutely.
  • I haven't seen nothing like this, to be honest.
  • Like, I mean, I used to, yes, the UFC does things bigger, does things big, but there's nothing like, nothing to do with a fight promotion or fight organization.
  • This is just like a global cultural event.
  • Yeah.
  • It almost looks like it's ticking every box.
  • like it's taking checking every boxes I mean I saw like beautiful commercial war in Japan in I don't know New York everywhere even in London buses in London yeah boxes taxi
  • Even the statues.
  • Yeah, the statue.
  • Yeah, you're right, the statues.
  • 20-foot statues of you guys.
  • Yes.
  • Come on, man.
  • It's incredible.
  • It's insane.
  • I was telling someone the other day about your journey, your story.
  • And your story deserves this.
  • Because of where you've come from, from Cameroon to Spain, getting locked up in Spain, going to France, being homeless.
  • in France, this is all 10 years ago, 10 years ago.
  • If you tell Francis Ngannou from 10 years ago that this is going to be you, it's a movie, it's like a movie.
  • He is a movie, but Francis 10 years ago could have believed that this could happen.
  • I mean, he did believe, and that's why it's happened.
  • You know, it's not an overnight thing.
  • It's not something that you go to sleep, wake up, and then this is happening.
  • It's a process, day-to-day belief.
  • You know, there is a lot of hurdles along the way, and then you have to keep believing in your faith, get you through obstacles to hurdles, and to bring you here.
  • I think I could have believed it but it's different to live it in real, it's different to be there in person and I think he can see it big.
  • Where does that strong belief come from?
  • Like, not just because of your story, but even the way in which you dealt with the UFC and Dana White, and everyone said you're doing it wrong, but you kept your belief.
  • I'm just stubborn.
  • Where does that come from?
  • You are stubborn.
  • Stubbornness.
  • Yeah.
  • That's a West African thing.
  • I'm Nigerian, I understand.
  • I was always about a black sheet.
  • Yeah.
  • Hence the predator.
  • Hence the predator.
  • What did you make of Tyson Fury?
  • He's that John Fury.
  • What did you make of it?
  • Well...
  • They are hilarious, they are quite funny.
  • I mean, I know them already.
  • I've been seeing them, I've been watching them.
  • I've been visualizing this for so long, so there's nothing here that surprises me.
  • You know, you're doing something, and you can tell me, you can say, Ade, you're wrong, but I've watched you for years.
  • I've been watching you, all your UFC fights, so I see all the behind-the-scenes stuff, and the clips that you're putting out now showing your boxing, I'm like, no, no, Francis is holding back.
  • He's not showing everything.
  • You're not showing everything in those clips.
  • Oh, that might be everything.
  • Yeah, no, no, no, no.
  • But that everything is still enough to do something.
  • That's true.
  • It could do some damage.
  • Nothing is little enough not to do anything.
  • Yeah.
  • Is it weird in every UFC fight, maybe apart from your early fights, you're a big favorite, that France is gonna win.
  • Even the Stipe fight you lost, you was a big favorite.
  • For the first time, you're the big underdog.
  • Not many people expect you to win.
  • Is that strange?
  • No.
  • In fact, I think the time that I lost, I was the favorite.
  • Yeah, against Stipe, right?
  • Yeah.
  • And then when I was underdog, I won.
  • I always won when I'm underdog.
  • So underdog fits me pretty good.
  • Yeah, Alistair Overeem did an interview with Ariel Hawane.
  • And I think Ariel asked him, who do you think is going to win?
  • And Alistair said, you.
  • He said the MMA fighters are underrated all the time.
  • But he said that he doesn't just think you're going to win.
  • He thinks you're going to knock out Tyson Fury.
  • OK.
  • Alistair Overeem said he thinks you're going to knock out Tyson Fury.
  • Is there a question?
  • There is a question.
  • You're going to knock out, so he thinks that you're going to do it.
  • Do you think that as well?
  • Of course.
  • I think that.
  • I believe in that.
  • And I think he's right in the perspective that MMA fighter is always underrated.
  • Of course, I do not have as much experience in boxing as Tyson Fury, but I'm a big man, I'm strong, and I can throw my hands.
  • I think everybody that can throw his hand can knock somebody out.
  • Very true.
  • Do you want to stay in boxing?
  • Is that the plan?
  • I know you've signed a deal with PFL, but there are so many opponents for you in boxing, right?
  • Whether it be AJ, Wilder, Joe Joyce, Zhili Zhang.
  • Big names.
  • Do you want to stay in boxing?
  • Combination, baby.
  • Oh, a bit of both.
  • Get that money from everywhere.
  • A bit of both.
  • Yeah.
  • Rob in the bank.
  • Fumble in the bank.
  • I like it.
  • Francis, good luck, brother.
  • Thank you.
  • Good luck, my man.
  • Thank you so much.
