Ngannou is the HW GOAT
Gane fucked up when he went for leg lock. Low percentage sub used mainly to improve position. Unless you an expert at it or trying to use it to get up fighters need to trash the leg lock as a sub
I specialize in the Gender ID field and ALL women in UFC MMA BOXING are really men💯 This includes Larry Sanko and Marvin Olivi. You're being lied to
You are the best coach
We need one for James Krause
Respect coach
Is Laura Sanko still training with James Krause??
More of these!
Coach NipSlip
My favorite coach in the sport, great guy and just knows how to relate to guys and guide them. You can tell he truly cares about his guys.
so crazy how Francis ko Stipe with a jab, Francis has so much damn power like Jesus Christ, Stipe has a chin too.
Portir obiçni
Its so amazing seeing fighters follow exactly what the coach says, like he said its like a video game. If the coach knows what hes talking about then listen to him
Legent
NICKSICK A LEGEND
In Nuganu you are watching one of the best enjoy every secong.
Where are those idiots saying Francis didn't sweep Gane at round 5? where are they? you just heard the coach say it now…
Megan!! 😍😍
This dude is a real one.
Weekly pieces on gyms n coaches pls!
One of the most cerebral and humble coaches! Eric is amazing! 👏
He called Francis a kid? Savage. Francis is the epitome of what a grown a** man is.
World class coach & gym!
Eric 7:55 7:57
Eric Nicksick is a force of nature. To make Francis whose had 0% grappling ability to secure a win by grappling. Man's a legend
I gained so much respect for him after the podcast with Flex Lewis with him and Sean Strickland. This makes it double-fold. What a great leader.
Now let's do one with James Krause 😂
For many years in mma, Greg Jackson & Javier Mendez were seen as probably the 2 OGs in the coaching business & their resumes are impressive but Eric Nicksick seems like that cool big brother many wish they could’ve had especially when you see how he interacts with his fighters. Francis Ngannou & every other fighter at that gym is so lucky to have a coach like him.
Love ❤️ brother Thank you 🙏 for sharing Eric Nicksick

Team AKA rule. Hernandez number 1 coach.
cyril gane needs to leave MMA factory to train with Eric Nicksick
HIGH level coach right there !
The fk is Francis Ngannou doing? Haven’t seen him fight for ages…surgery?
Thank you, UFC, for the segment. Really meant a lot!! 🤙🏼❤️
Francis Ngannou is scary man when he hits pads. It's like gunshots.
Eric is not only one of the best coaches in the game but prob one of the BEST people as well. Not many people like him in the world. Great to see his success continue to grow and grow. Great coach but also great dad, husband, friend etc.
Inspiring to hear, for all of the people that didn't put their talents and gifts to the next level, doesn't mean that you can't teach anyone everything that it takes to be great. Plenty of us still have a path in life, regardless of what route we chose, just matters about getting to our destination. Awesome stuff bro, raised in Vegas as well and here it's not hard to veer off but with growth comes learning, understanding, experience and perseverance. Keep it up!!! Wish you and your team all the successes that come.
