Cameroonian Mix Martial Artist Francis Ngounou will clash with Cain Velasquez this Sunday in a very interesting Mix Martial match.
Almost forgotten, dominant former heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez would be making his long awaited come back to the Octagon, and is there any other better person to receive him than the Cameroonian mix martial artist Francis Ngannou? Of course none. These two would try to come out and hurt each other on Sunday (February 17, 2019) from inside the historic Talking stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, Arizona.
Born In Batie’-Cameroon, on the 5, of September, 1986 4 year’s his opponents junior. The Cameroonian is looking for a chance to move up the ranks in the heavyweight division, and maybe get the chance to fight with current champion Daniel Cormier, while Cain Velasquez is trying hard just to get seeded again.
Ngannou currently stands fourth in his weight division, and has already shown signs of what his raw punching power could do; he currently holds the record for the highest punching power ever measured by the UFC at 129, 161 units.He brook the previous record set by kick boxing champion Tyrone Spong which was at 114,000 units.
‘The Predator’ as the Cameroonian is called, would hope he has met his prey already, though the two have a great professional MMA record;
Cain Velasquez has fought 16 times, won 14, in that 14 wins they’re 12 knockouts, 2 by submission and was knocked out once and also defeated by submission once in the 2 losses he incurred.
Ngannou has entered the cage 15 times, won 12, inclusive 8 knockouts and 4 submissions, incurring 3 losses all by the judges split decision, so the Cameroonian has never been knocked cold or been defeated by submission.
Francis.N has a better reach advantage in the fight ; 83 inches as to Cain’s 77 inches, but new collaborators of the UFC (ESPN) tips Velasquez as favorite and Francis Ngannou as underdog, there’s just that feeling that the underdog might become the main dog come Sunday.
