You don’t believe that. Francis would gas trying to force offensive wrestling. His only submission win in the UFC was against Anthony Hamilton who’s an absolute can and it came off a reversal.
Look at what Adesanya is doing to fools at MW… he’s on his own level right now. A division with no wrestlers like HW would be ripe for the picking for a high caliber striker.
He has 3 other submission wins. Obviously hes not submitting fabricio werdums but hes much better than rico "zero grappling" verhoeven. Did you see how he worked his wrestling vs stipe in round 1? Tittysanya has been fighting in mma for years. If rico fought francis right now, francis beats him up on the ground and gets a tko/sub. Obviously if rico had years of mma experience it could be different.
