Here for another Verstappen masterclass

iamoyindamola:
The guy is actually foolish
He should lose his entire family in one day and prostrate to shetimma if he come for the burial

Nigerians with their fake morality and piety. Na him country still useless like this.

The focus is always on performance never on actually being decent people

BlueRayDick:
Twitter user drags Wigwe's daughter for not standing up to shake hands with Shettima at her late father's tribute night.

The only thing that comes to my mind is that this Twitter user sef will grow old and some younger generation will see him as a wise elder ? 🤦‍♂️..... Just look at the sense he has as young adult.

The levels of insanity of the average Nigerian still shocks me from time to time. To fix thumbs and type that to someone dealing with losing an entire family

Anyway it was from that babe that was shot in a train that I knew we were dealing with Wildeebeests and not human beings

User09:
I think his MMA natural instinct showed up as soon as he started taking those punches.

The KO punch for instance, he saw it coming but kept his hand/defense lower like a typical MMA fighter

Exactly. That cross was thrown from Sagamu. I would give him a slight pass perhaps cos the fight really should have been stopped after the second knockdown.

Anyway amateur will always be amateur, An experience fighter would have regrouped, do small hugging and clinching and try to gather your wits about you. Survive a round or two but Ngannou had no nous for that

Ibime:
Even on orthodox stance he was wide open down the middle. On his right side, his shoulder is not tucked into his chin, and on his left side, his leading jab hand hung out far too wide, exposing his middle. That's the stance of a very mobile fighter with lightning reaction times, not for an old sluggish heavyweight like Ngannou.

That's why I said Ngannou's defense was bizarre. Look at the first knockdown. Immediately he switched to southpaw AJ gave him boom straight right.

Compare his defense in this fight to the sequence that led to the Fury knockdown. Miles apart.

The problem with MMA is you can never fully defend like a boxer cos you're worried about not just punches and kicks but takedowns as well. I was even surprised at how quickly Ngannou was able to pick up boxing defense in the first fight. Because that's usually the biggest problem MMA boxers have, their stance is just too wide for boxers

Even look at the finishing cross, would probably give Ngannou a pass cos he was like concussed but Joshua corked that thing from Sagamu and Ngannou just couldn't get out the way.

I would probably put Ngannou with a big bang Zhang. The speed difference between him and AJ was glaring and AJ is not exactly warp speed

Ibime:
Ngannou get rematch clause with Joshua. His village elders should call intervention to save his life or at least take out a BIG life insurance on him.

His next play should be to accept step aside money so Johua-Fury can go ahead, then retire immediately and plan his investments

Why was Ngannou trying Southpaw? Southpaw is not what you switch to in 4 months crash course of boxing. He was wide open like German autobahn. It's either he didn't listen to his corner or his corner don't know what the hell they were doing

Lol nobody is putting up these two to fight again. Even the Sheikh go cancel the fight

Ngannou to me looked more amateurish today than the first fight. I want to know what he was doing in his training exactly

Simplest of traps. AJ was not really disguising anything he was doing. Of course AJ has more punch power than Fury though not a faster puncher however Ngannou's defense was absolutely shocking

Abi did Ngannou take a dive? This was a guy that ate an elbow flush from Fury in the last fight and barely flinched

raumdeuter:
Usyk na boxer from age 7. AJ alluded to that
Ngannou na bricklayer wey get power

AJ also has extensive amateur background. The issue with AJ has always been heart. Everytime fights got tough he checked out but Ngannou was not good enough to even take it there

Ngannou has also been boxing people forget. Just not at a high level before he fully switched to MMA

larride:
Francis is not a professional boxer. All na hype job.

His chin be like coastal biscuit

This was a terrible performance nonetheless. He was extremely sluggish.

I think we might have grossly underrated AJ's power.

So what the hell happened in the Usyk fight. Why was he so scared

Omo. Back to MMA you go brother. Damn

I didn't like the overconfident Ngannou I was seeing in some of the press conferences though I get he was trying to sell the fight.

This was the same Ngannou I saw vs Stipe the first fight and he had his ass handed to him

Let's see if he recovers

Ibime:
Zhang

Joyce na old man. He is a banger. To win Zhang you need to move and stay out the way of his bangers and Joyce is too static

Lol Zhang is 40. Na him be the real old man.

He would be a big punching bag for someone like Usyk. He was for Parker only that Parker has no real power to stop anyone

I don't think any mobile Heavyweight will have too much problem with him cos he's old and slow though incredibly tough. You can't do much but touch him up and leave it to the judges, like you would do with a Yoel Romero in MMA

What were Zhang's corner telling him during the fight? He had Parker hurt and didn't go for the kill. What was he expecting?

Ibime:
That guy na strong head. You can't knock him out but if he catch you, you're going down. But he can't fight.

Who are you talking about? Joyce or Zhang.

I had high hopes for Joyce after seeing him absolutely destroy Parker like I've never seen anyone do before

How did Joe Joyce lose twice to this Trailer? This is really the worst era of heavyweights

Theflint1:
As usual

Another sign these people do not think critically. Trial and error government

SmooshCHN:
Jalen Green
These boys with old women matter dey always weak me.

He's been fapping to that woman since puberty. I don't judge him. Na him mama I go blame cos clearly she's not praying on his behalf (assuming she's still here)

She looks better than a lot of these Gen Z babes out there to be fair

Steph out multiple games

Lakers and their love affair with the 10th seed. They're either 9th or 10th seed for the last 4 months. I respect the consistency

patrickmuf:
If Bayern had lost yesterday, he'd have been a big factor. He shoots when the chance is not there, hangs onto the ball too long and his passes are off.

Worst off, he does all of these and still wears that idgaf attitude...I expect from him.

Nothing you can do with a player still inconsistent at 28. His game has not matured since Man City days. This is someone you would expect to be top 20 Balon D'or contenders at least

WhoDeyHause:
I have always wondered too why upamechanic always starts ahead of delight when both are fit. Delight has mistakes too but he covers it with technique and aerial strength.

Upamenonsense plays with no brain honestly, no brake no jam no sense. All he relies on is his athleticism. I wonder what will happen if he ever loses it.

Calmness, on ball ability and spatial awareness are all important traits a CB should have which he lacks in spades

Yeah this was one of those games Harry Kane had to prove he was worth €100m Tucheliban tactics aside. If you cannot beat ordinary Lazio what is the point

Hopefully this stewpid coach plays De Ligt more and leaves Upamenonsense on the bench where he belongs

patrickmuf:
Sane has been poor.

I will help him pack his bags whenever his deal is up. Such a disappointment

raumdeuter:
The right coach that is appreciated by everyone that matter

Rummenigge and Pep na Christian?

TrustNone:
tucheliban
Terrorist in disguise sent from Dortmund to surreptitiously bring downfall to the once great Bayern

Oliver Kahn e no go better for you

Amen to the prayer

Seems these useless Western conference teams want us to not have our Western conference dream play in matchup.

Wtf was that fuckery from Sacramento

Of course. Baba no get anything prove which is why he retired after 2nd 3peat unlike some LeBalco people wey wan play reach 100.

Still he came back age 39/40 to play all 82 games just to show say e still dey body

Lol. Warriors are not a threat. Been saying this

As for LeBalco and the Lakers. Struggling to make playoffs every year is a bit disgraceful is the more important point. Ok one year fluke it to the WCF, the previous year miss the playoffs completely and the year before that end up as a play in team only to get bundled out in the 1st round by the Suns. 4 straight years of being on the struggle bus is embarrassing

Goat wey get AD and DAngelo Russell still dey jonze for 10th seed.

Make una no take laugh buss man belle with all this una yeye yeye


In other news. This Mavericks I'm seeing. We're going to start having uncomfortable discussions about Kyrie and Luka. Credit to Nick Nurse for showing his coaching chops but this Mavericks team it just feels like they are less than the sum of their parts

WhoDeyHause:
So you're trying to tell me raumdeuter A40 and pkasso will also end up trophy less this season.

Anything to get Tucheliban out of Bayern is fine by me. Even I wanted Dortmund to do it last season but they choked as usual. They and Tuchel are sleeper agents sent to destroy Bayern
