Ngannou, Usman, & Izzy's Friendship

Former UFC Champions Francis Ngannou, Kamaru Usman, and Israel Adesanya consider themselves to be friends. It's common for most fighters to have a group of friends that are also fighters, but this bond is considered special by them. All three are originally from the continent of Africa (Ngannou from Cameron, Usman and Adesanya from Nigeria). The three of them have been documented through the years showing support for their continent and each other while climbing to the top of combat sports. Despite Ngannou leaving the UFC in 2023 to sign with the MMA promotion PFL and pursue a career in boxing, Usman and Adesanya supported Ngannou's decision. #francisngannou #israeladesanya #shorts #ufc #kamaruusman

Very happy for Francis, he has an amazing underdog story. Started from the bottom and made it to the top.

That last hit put stipe out for 2 years

[ukangedesmond]

I love these guys so much. As an African, I'm so proud of them😊

[arlindblaze]

Ngannou had allways been treated like shit by the UFC. I’m glad he signed with the pfl, even tho they got pizza delivery guys fighting under contract.

[thomas_walker]

great era. it's wild to think all 3 of the african champs are no longer

[DormammuDawg]

ethan you got the best UFC comps in the game!

[JohnWilliams-jrxp]

I saw a pic of Lyoto, Alex, and Glover. Nothing but love for the 3 brazilian champs. Every time there is something about 3 african champs its ALOT of hate. I wonder why?🤔

[tyler-fwph]

I seriously got worried when i saw francis wind up the hammer fist to bring down on his face before they cut the clip lol

[kuldog]

Francis did get stung a bit there then proceeded to knock stipe out 😂

[Polar-Bloop]

Francis is a GOAT
ufc HW champ 🔥
Boxing HW world champ
Soon will be PFL HW champ🔥

[monric]

Now im very intrigued in seeing more UFC fighters go to boxing. Sean O’malley said he wanted Tank Davis, that could be a fun one

[erickouma]

Uncle Dana it doesn't matter what he thinks or says 😂😂

[kelvinpina]

Imagine if all of them, ask Dana to improve the terms

[ogbighomie]

DeSean Strickland and Dricus Du Plessis will fight who is going to be the undisputed king of the jungle

[asherfarley]

[mosestholwana]

Do they hold an African passport or vote in Africa?
