Kamaru Usman was supported by Francis Ngannou at the UFC 286 event.
Francis, who used to be a heavyweight champion and is now a free agent, held a viewing party for the pay-per-view on Saturday as he wanted to show his support for Kamaru. The three of them, Kamaru Usman, Israel Adesanya and Francis Ngannou are referred to as “The Three Kings”.

The video showcases many reactions from Ngannou who was completely watching the long five-round fight that ended with Edwards staying champion after receiving a majority of the votes. This is the second win for Edwards over Usman, which happened via a head kick knockout in August at UFC 278.
Afterwards, Ngannou seemed sad about the result but still believes that Usman can fight for the belt once again.
Ngannou was happy that despite getting knocked out, the opponent stayed in the fight and didnt wobble. He knew there would be a lot of setbacks as the opponent had injuries so he couldn’t train properly, but they won anyway, even if it wasn’t exactly joyous or triumphant. Ngannou believes it’s possible for the guy to get his fighting back on track and win again.
