@1:05 - Tafon: "Started with football then went to wrestling" @2:18 - Coaches: "when Tefon came in he had no wrestling experience" So which is it?!

So many have the mindset and the look of a champion. Only a few ever achieve the belt.

another one representing his home country while they fled and took advantage of all the benefits the country he went to gave him. I fucking despise those guys.

Congrats Homie, very humble person! God bless you!

Is this the guy that is huge for his weight class? You know what I mean...the guy that tries to get the advantage rather than fight in his own weight class or rather his true weight class. Is this that guy? It's easy to be Mr. Unstoppable when you're bigger than everyone and can take their punches with ease because you're that much larger on fight night, 20- 30 lbs in fact. I don't know what you call them but we call them chicken shit. Anyone woulf be willing to fight someone they have a huge advantage over. Doesn't take much courage. Is this that guy? I'll be honest I didn't even watch the video. I don't care. I saw a guy fight someone last night named Pickett and this example came to mind. Although, if you can't even knock out someone you outweigh by 20-30lbs then I think we all know the reason you are not at your true weight class, bum. The only reason he looks so powerful is because he's in there with people a lot smaller so of course he will look like a powerhouse. It's embarrasing really. It'd be like watching a freshman beat up some 6th graders. People always trying to get the advantage in life instead of just working hard for it. Fighting is no different. Especially fighting because there are a lot of fragile egos and insecure minds at play.

Wow, who hurt you when you were a kid? you can talk to me about it .

Good luck to this fighter, I'm not believing he is a straight killer yet but but he has raw power I'm looking forward to watching his next fight.

2:20 Master Lloyd participated in a gang rape but couldn't get hard so he avoided jail time

Not even trying to be racist but why are all africans so ripped and have such good stamina and speed. dead ass isnt there science to prove that they are technically the most genetically superior race of humans? (coming from an indian brit)

Never heard of him will see what he's about Saturday
Måned sidenWestCoastSamoan
He's a big dude and heavy favorite for his upcoming bout. He got the skills, but I worry about him dropping down to Middleweight. I wonder how it'll affect him

i like his high kick
Måned sidenSrodrMMABet
Tafon Nchukwi vs Jamie Pickett - interesting fight and match-up, Nchukwi is young, super physical, naturally very heavy handed and has got the hype behind him - Pickett prior to his last fight he didnt look that great, but his last fight he showed up using his range really nicely with straight shots, head kicks, was able to shoot, explode - I think Pickett at his best can win this fight, as he can control the range, use his kicks and can mix it up with takedowns - Nchukwi will come forward, good pressure, great power, but so far he showed to be primarily a standard kickboxer -pick and bet Pickett at +270 My channel for complete breakdown and my consistent and transparent strategy - 370% profit from July 2020 - all transparent and recorded, check it out

We'll just call him mr. sleepy kick.

If you want to represent cameroon, go move back there. I’m really sick of people moving to America to represent other countries. It’s different for the Olympics, which I understand. And I’m not talking about people from other countries like Joanna who just come over from poland to train at ATT before a fight. That’s fine. She’s not am american citizen living in America. If Cameroon is so wonderful please go back there to live. Make Cameroon great.
Måned sidenJesse Wright
Time will tell.
Måned sidenM DGAF
Perhaps if he can bring that Ngannou power and more dynamism. Then we may just have another contender. I cant ignore the message being sent from Cameroon just as with the guys from Dagestan. These dudes aint to be trifled with.
Måned sidenCheryl Saw
Looking forward to his UFC debut this weekend
Måned sidenAnderson Dess
He’s gonna get fucked up if they put him with anyone experienced
Måned sidenAfoakwah George
The organization knows he has that Yoel Romero shit. He's very marketable. They can sell his physique, power and explosion
Måned sidenTirona TV
The guy has it clear on his mind what he really wanna be and whats more important he’s with his feets on the ground, i like it.
Måned sidenBarfyMan362
How about let him fight a UFC fight before we waste a big budget on these videos. These knockout artists have trouble against actual seasoned KOers and high level BJJ guys so let's just give it a moment UFC

Lmfao it's better and more successful to grow up with brothers than Being a boy and having sister five years your elder that doesn't help with anything. I learned nothing from my mother, but learned more from my father in 1 night of listening to him talk.
