If Mike wasnt already a legend of sports, he definitely reached legendary status as a human being helping Francis that much

Francis kept his hands up the entire fight…. Legend.

It's crazy how Mike approaches everything with a pinch of humor, never sounds too serious, still delivers the message loud and clear!

Eben's presence is what made this podcast best. Since he left, the podcast never felt the same.

I like it how Tyson has been like Aristotle and Socrates towards Francis by giving him life lessons, business aspects of combat sports and training him for the Fury fight. Simply the best.

We have to commend Francis’s ability to learn English in a short period of time!! Goes to show he’s talented beyond fighting!!

Listening to Mike motivate Francis brings tears to my eyes.

God bless Iron Mike Tyson for taking Francis under his wings. What a great mentor he is.

Ngannous life is too unbelievable to be a movie.

Amazing that at 37 he looks like he's 27. Most fighters are done at 37 and he looks like he's in his prime! Can't wait to see what Ngannou does next!

I love Mike Tyson's confidence. Tyson is talking about psychology. Self Confidence. I love this.

He won that fight ! Incredible.. what a milestone

Giving him that early gem about having a lawyer is ABSOLUTE love . He's looking out for these young mens best interests as they're coming into real money.. that info is worth it's weight on Gold

Mike described the entire Fury saga before it even happens hahaha 43:55 - 45:45 the man has seen it all.. Truly a wise man

Mike is delivering a powerful sermon to Francis. Praise God for this exceptional word of wisdom.

POWERFUL SH!T! My man took us to church and nobody needed this more than me rn! Forever grateful champ 🥊

Just think of how much Mike wanted to conquer his dream...he was extremely disciplined everyday, every hour, every minute for so many years chasing a goal...he came from such a low place and climbed a mountain that seemed impossible....it takes guts to be that consistent and determined...that's inspiration in its purest form. His story has helped me in my life, Mike is a living legend.

What a mutually beneficial relationship they both have. Mike can pass on the lessons Cus to Francis. Best team right here, hope Francis becomes world champ

This aged so well. Francis will forever be known as Champ.

This is historic. It was destined for these two to connect. Now look at what’s happened. Francis story and character are so inspirational. God bless him always.

I love their bond, it's so genuine, in different, but equally strong ways. Also love to see Francis start to curse and express himself a bit more, after hanging out with Mike so much. He's becoming stronger in so many ways. Most definitely the heavyweight champion of the world, and incredible to still have room to grow! 💪🏾 Rooting for you two all the way from Norway!

the last 20 minutes of this talk made me cry. Mike is amazing man.

absolutely love the bond you have with Francis. a Modern legend with one of the greatest of all time, Mike Tyson.

Respect. No click bait. Straight up tells you this is a re run and they are on break will be back with new videos soon. ❤

Mike was so happy and so into knowledge,, he started talking over the guy but in a genuine way,, ❤love this

Such an empowering interview. People watching this should take notes. 19:14 - Mike Tyson's wrong there: the poorest parts of LA or America isn't heaven to Africans. They would be hell to many, many Africans, and they are hell for many Africans who come from good parts of Africa to America and end up there, but for those who are from the places where Francis is from, yeah, anything is better, but sometimes it's just the opportunity rather than the condition. Tyson needs to visit the continent. Come to parts of Nigeria!

28:22 "What is your dream?" Who woulda thought he would have beat the heavyweight king just a few years later...crazy😎

This is so inspiring. Francis is such a unique being, what a life and the challenges he over came.

I feel like Mike sees himself in Francis. The fighting spirit. Tough life moulded them into greatness

Mike passing on the Cus mindset to Francis. What an amazing story how all this manifested

Mike chose Ngannou as his disciple bc he's the closest thing to him that we've ever seen. Mike in his prime was the most naturally gifted fighter on the planet. At this moment, Francis holds that title. But Francis is still raw in technique. If Mike trains Francis to be the champion, he's going to fulfill something in himself. Bc Francis is leading his life the right way and not falling to the temptations of the devil.

Who in the hell would ever think that a guy with no amateur or professional boxing could beat a p4p goat in the sport they trained in they're entire life.🤯🤯🤯🤯

Ngannou vs Fury was birthed here. That's why who speaks to you or who you listens to is so powerful in shapening your destiny. This encounter with Mike Tyson was the turning point.

I love both of these fighters life stories. Two men that came from hard childhoods to become legends.

Mike is a modern age philosopher some may arrogantly scoff at this , for no other reason than that he talks like the streets, as if there has to be certain criteria to have a intelligent thinking mind and or the ability to vocalise deep & profound statements that instantly force you to muse/ponder over, a smart man learns from his mistakes but a wise man learns from the mistakes of others, mike's had some mad tough lessons and thank God he learned from them, he knows first hand, God doesn't test you beyond what your capable of handling

This brilliant Young man is destined for big things. At last a true heavyweight contender who's the real deal.

So glad Francis linked up with Mike,its like a a big brother teaching him the ropes and glad now getting paid what he's worth !! now all heavyweight boxers have to take him seriously no more jokes he's a top level fighter many thanks Mike may the good lord bless you and all your family 🙏 BLESSINGS GOAT 🙏

I think David Goggins said it best: if you go into a tennis match against a pro (as an amateur), and what happens is that at the second half of the match you realize "oh, I can hang with this guy". But the match is already over, because you didn't think you can win in the first half of the match. If you have this mindset of "I can beat this guy" the whole match, it will give you the ability to make the impossible possible. Edit: it is a coincidence that I talk about tennis - it was the example David Goggins used (real example that happened to him) - it has nothing to do with Tyson Fury's "tennis - table tennis" stupid thing.

It’s crazy how Francis has spoken all this into existence

Why isn’t there a movie about this guy yet. Would be the biggest inspirational movie that every person in the world should see

mike is a man of more experience than 50 average human lives

Everytime Mike respects his guests he's gives out a totally different energy.. Great interaction. You can tell when he doesnt respect the person

How can you ... NOT ... root for a brutha like this?! Dude's as humble as the day is long. So shout out to Francis. He deserves all the success in the world, because he has a great positive, humble mindset, to go along with his talent.

From child labourer in African to multimillionaire with international stardom.. you didn't win the fight but you won the war Mr Ngannou 👏 👏 👏

If they dont make a movie on the mma heavyweight champ / Boxing Heavyweight champ that came from absolutely nothing homelessness from africa to europe to america living the american dream and appreciating it im mean what a life and story !

Wow man i love how Mike Tyson teaches Francis about destiny. He truly manifested Francis's life into reality. I truly like the part where Mike says "Nothing in life happens by mistake" that's why the are words like destiny 💯And again he is truly profound that in life no one meets someone by coincidence. You are bound to meet everyone you met and still gonna meet, to teach you a thing or 2, good or bad, it is really necessary that you go through that face to prepare you for the bright future. What a lovely episode i really learnt a lot thanks for the Rerun guys. I hope Francis could watch it again too and fight "FURY" again with some determination to finish him.

Francis story should be made into a movie.

Biggest inspiration in sports. Francis Ngannou.

This podcast was visionary from Mike Tyson I feel like God was talking through him to Francis and O boy Francis followed it to the tip. Thank you Mike for the prophecy in Francis Life and you where just passing the Barton to Francis this podcast is the highest ever and spiritual. God bless you both. Francis needs to be closer to God from here.

28:31 that hits different hearing it now, hats off to Francis!

Such a beautiful thing to watch between these 2 people. Legends forever

Mike Tyson spoke life on to Francis, like a Dad would a son. This is lovely

This is Humanity at its finest, many life lessons from these two Legends 👏🏾

He is a great person and mentally tuff as hell. Inspiring.

Francis im in London and your new fan! Your personality and love for your family is beautiful .and blessings to my favourite fighter of all time mike tyson .great recognise great. Look forward to what's next champs i mean you both a great team

You're an absolute legend Mike, I wish I could be fortunate enough to get a trainer like you. I look upto you since I end up relating a lot plus I've been getting good results when I take your advise lmao

Mike can never talk about Ali or Cus without crying

Bro, Mike Tyson is dropping gems. Handing out wisdom

Its really nice to see how this aged … It was ment to be that way . Francis gone through alot and has a LOT coming with Mike at his side who knows all these things through his own experience . God bless

What a wisdom, Mike Dyson speaking from the level of greatness that you can't learn at the classrooms. Champion is more than just winning.

Thank you Mike for being inspiring! I've been watching you since 1987. Keep fighting the good fight! Love what you are doing ❤️

*Legendary! Iconic! What an amazing journey so far. Can’t wait to see what Ngannou does next!*

..... and you know else, the GOAT also became a gentleman and a sage. Love ya Mike.

Francis envisioned Mike training him.. can’t wait to see what Ngannou does next with his boxing career and will Mike continue to pass on Cus’ knowledge.. The Peoples Champ and The Baddest Man On The Planet! What a duo!

From this day I start seeing Tyson in a different light

Tyson believed in him from way back 💯

It's great to meet your idol sometimes. I can't fathom a better moment for Francis Ngannou than this

Its crazy how tyson talk this till the end, & now what the profet has spoken... life is crazy, im listening, the champ is here

Love seeing how happy and excited Mike is in this podcast

Big brother Mike, Sharing the wisdom 💯 Love you brother

Thanks a lot Mike. University of life. 🙏🏽🇬🇲

Mike was speaking gems in this interview, missed this the first time but glad i seen this now. Im motivated to do great things.

Love to see your 2 guys back. Best podcast office

Mike is helping ME out so much right now! Thank you Mr Tyson!!!!

Two real Legends 👌🏾🔥🔥💯

Love the bond they have 💯

that’s what tyson has helped francis proper gentleman been through the struggles and deserves greatness plus he’s a bad ass fighter

You are the real Deal Mike you always have been I watch you at MGM the only chance I got to fullfill my dream to watch Mike Tyson even though if wasn't the result I wanted it was my dream since the early 80s to see Mike Tyson congratulations to Francis I knew you would knock Fury down what a great coaching and pupil combination the best of the best from New Zealand ❤😊😎

Hope mike becomes for Francis what Cus was to him ❤️

Francis has incredible skillset / featureset for boxing! And I don't want to say he is "gifted", because he has worked VERY hard for everything he has in his life - and this hard work has resulted in who he is today. I hope Francis keeps working hard, I am very excited to see how far he can go, he definitely has the potential to become the greatest combat sports athlete of all time - champ champ: both boxing and MMA. Francis boxing against Fury was absolutely lethal. Little bit more experience in the sport and Francis is completely unstoppable. He doesn't necessarily even need more experience - he just needs a good strategist in his corner - someone who can give him a good gameplan for a (boxing) match. But I want to say that his gameplan in Fury match was great, I just think it is possible to take it to an even higher level. Regarding MMA, he doesn't need the strategist necessarily, since he is already a champ.

Love you all so much!! Great podcast. I hope we meet some day

LEGEND GOAT TALK 4 REAL!!! Congrats Francis u a real legend and Mike knew all the way!!!!

I'm really fascinated by Mike Tyson spiritual understanding. Ngannou called him "A Philosopher", but I call him "A Spiritually Conscious Man".

Can remember watching this during or after lockdown, can't clearly recall. The chills it brings still feels same.

Mike is speaking so much faster here than he does now, and its just a few years ago. maybe he's sober here and always high now

I love this beautiful chemistry, I would like to add that mistakes are inevitable, it's impossible to evolve without making mistakes, that's how we learn if we rise above them

Excellent discussion. Tyson is a true legend!!!

This is awesome, I just love the connection between Francis and Mike

It was dope watching this manifestation cook up. Thank you. Lot's of Jewels

That's great, I'm willing to die for what I'm doing. It's a different goal....one thing It's all the same no matter what...Thank you...

This is the future mike training Monsters like Francis. He did that good against Fury his first fight.

Great intro! Mike you're an inspiration!

Love you Tyson! Oozing wisdom. Well done Champ Francis.

Gratitude+beleif+ vision=victory!! We are divine and carrying doubts is just a disgrace to God. What an amazing session!! Thank you Masters 👊🏾🥊❤!!!

That's a life classroom.thank you I learn when I listen to you

Mike is an incredible human being!

Mike I hope and it is one of my goals one day I can be under your wing and be trained in all your ways in the art or fighting and art of life from all your experiences for competition As you have with Francis. You're the right guy to put people in the right direction when struggling with something. Love to both of you Iron Mike and The Predator. I wanna see Francis take that Heavy Weight Championship

Man i didn’t know ebin was back . Fuck yea bro , this is the chemistry . Don’t change this line up man

Watching this back, it was just meant to be. I'm soooo happy for Francis, he pursued his dream, vacated his belt and now is one of THE hottest properties in boxing 👊🏾👊🏾👑

Mike i love you bro. Your purpose is truly now i believe is to help this man become the next you, make him savage as you were. ❤
