 Francis Ngannou’s story is incredible.

This is a man that was homeless on the streets of Paris 11 years ago. 

Look at him now.

He became the UFC Heavyweight Champion and he just arguably beat the supposed greatest Heavyweight boxer of all time.

 After refusing to be denied passage to a place with more opportunity the guy learned French and English and became proficient enough at MMA to become UFC champ. Remains humble and kind. Unbelievable human being.
