The hype seems to have got to him a little. The clothes, sun glasses and Pogbaesque haircut before really doing the bizz. Miocic made him look very average and one dimensional.
Yes his face was a mess, FN hit him a couple of times but didn’t land his usual head removal shot. After round one he was gassed and hardly did anything after that. Miocic is no chump though so no shame in losing when your still learning the game.Whilst true from the result, the man has had 11 fights and can take a punch even when he's tired!
Miocic was not and not ever going to strike with him. Whilst FN never really connected, look at SM's face!
This was good for FN.
