Low effort trolling, but I’ll play along.

Francis was forged by a much tougher life than you I’d assume. Unless you’ve worked in salt mines or similar as a kid, and have been a homeless immigrant for some time as well?

Not only that he has natural athleticism and elite genetics. Guy is 240+ and lean. He looks like an actin figure. Also lol at only 4 months of boxing. He was the best heavyweight mma fighter for the best league and has had years of combat sports experience. He’s not some average joe.

Also starting late from no experience like you means after age 16 or so. You’re double that boyo. Just saw you’re only 165 at 5’1””. You’d be in Crawfords or Canelos range, and those weight classes come with dragonball z speed punches.

Let that sink in, you could be talking to the future heavy weight champion of the world

Thought the announcers comment was odd during that fight. Said that the black dude might finally get the respect he deserves because people doubted him his entire life.

Who were these people that saw that giant 275 black dude and doubted he could fight? That stupid comment made no sense to me. I am sure he was a big kid too so probably no one pushed him around or bullied him during his crappy childhood either.
"To be a warrior is not a simple matter of wishing to be one. It is rather an endless struggle that will go on to the very last moment of our lives. Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other."-- Carlos Castaneda
