UFC on ESPN 3 Francis 'The Predator' Ngannou vs Junior 'Cigano' dos Santos Post-Fight Show

On this episode of the show Eddie Mercado joins Flyin' Brian J to discuss the nights violence and nonsensical post-fight antics. For the audio version of the show visit us at https://soundcloud.com/mma-nation or at Bloody Elbow Presents on iTunes. Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) put two of the most prolific Heavyweight knockout artists in the history of mixed martial arts (MMA) in the Octagon as the main event of the promotion’s third main card effort on ESPN. Francis “The Predator” Ngannou had barely accumulated more than one minute of cage time in his last two fights, knocking out Cain Velasquez and Curtis Blaydes in back-to-back contests. Junior dos Santos has been known for his finishing ability for almost a decade, but most recently put away Tai Tuivasa and Derrick Lewis, consecutively. There was very little doubt that when they went toe-to-toe as the headlining attraction inside Target Center in Minneapolis, Minn., that one man will be taking a short canvas nap. This post-fight show is aimed at recapping all of the action from this event with the live viewer serving as the co-host. We go over post-fight ratings, talk about technique, discuss WTF moments from the card, and give out pretend bonuses. 265 lbs.: Francis Ngannou (14-3) DEF.
