I honestly was hoping to see ngannou get knocked out and eat one or two more punches as he lays there KO’d. Considering he likes to throw a couple of more shots after his opponent is knockout. I even kind of remembering one fight where he clearly knocks out his opponent. And even after the ref grabbed ngannou, ngannou was still gonna try to throw another punch.

I get you gotta finish the fight. With that said Ngannou is pretty consistent with his follow up shots, and his opponents tend to be laid the fuck out. He even seems to want to continue to throw after the ref steps in. The follow up from ngannou comes off very malicious compared to the rest of the ufc roster.

With that said, I am getting down voted for wanting someone to give ngannou a follow up shot. Seems people don’t like the idea of the follow up.

i actually think you’re getting down voted because francis isn’t known for his cheap shots, so it sounds a little extreme. speaking for myself, it was the description of it more than anything that struck me. i don’t like the follow up shots but i understand that they’re engaging basically in a blood sport and adrenaline makes people do erratic things. also, i don’t begrudge you wanting to see certain fighters get a taste of their own medicine. i can relate to that.

i will also say it doesn’t really make your case when you say the ref pulled him off and he tried to throw another punch. that’s what the ref is there for, sounds like it worked as intended.

Jairzinho Rozenstruik (multiple shots after the KO)

Luis Henrique, follow up was on the throat

Stipe (2nd fight, look at how slow and deliberate that one was. Much like Hendos on bisping)

Overeem (similar to stipe, i think alistar had a seizure from that one, i could be wrong)

Those were all after some pretty obvious KO’s, followed up by some of brutal punches. There are multiple post about Ngannou follow ups. If you’re ok, with that you should be ok with Ngannou eating a follow up as well. If you’re not ok with follow ups, then you’re probably not a fan of Ngannou which is cool.

With that said, we all should agree on one thing. If the ref gets inbetween a fighter and a KO opponent, and the fighter still is going to throw follow ups; we should all agree on that going way too far. Once the ref grabs you, the fight is over, there is no reason to keep going.

oh i see what you’re saying, not after the ref intervenes but after it seems like the fighter is done. fair points. and again, i’m not upset about the idea of ngannou eating follow up shots, what you’re talking about happens in probably 95% of fights where fighters go out and while i don’t love them, i realize that they’re always because the ref is in a bad position. if francis goes out and the ref isn’t there, he’ll eat some shots for sure.

totally agree on the last ref part.
