It is with a heavy heart that we share the devastating news of Francis Ngannou's son passing away. The UFC and boxing star took to social media to confirm the heartbreaking news that his son, Kobe, had passed away at the young age of just 15 months. The news has been met with an outpouring of support and condolences from fans and followers on his social media pages.
Ngannou, who is 37 years old, shared a heartfelt post on Instagram, expressing his grief and devastation. He wrote, "Too soon to leave but yet he's gone. My little boy, my mate, my partner Kobe was full of life and joy. Now, he's laying without life. I shouted his name over and over but he's not responding. I was my best self next to him and now I have no clue who I am. Life is so unfair to hit us where it hurts the most."
The cause of Kobe's death is still unknown, with media outlets in Ngannou's native Cameroon being the first to report the heartbreaking news. Ngannou confirmed the news himself, stating that he is struggling to come to terms with the loss of his beloved son. He also asked for help from his followers, saying, "How do you deal with such a thing? How can you live with it? Please help me if you have an idea because I really don't know what to do and how to deal with this."
On Twitter, Ngannou continued to express his grief, questioning the purpose of life and why it can be so unfair and merciless. He said, "What's the purpose of life if what we're fighting tooth and nail to get away from is what finally hit us the hardest? Why is life so unfair and merciless? Why does life always take what we don't have? I'm f***ing tired."
Messages of support and condolences poured in from all corners of the world, with UFC superstar Conor McGregor and boxing promoter Frank Warren among those expressing their sympathy and prayers for Ngannou and his family. Ngannou's coach, Eric Nicksick, also urged fans to keep the Cameroonian fighter and his family in their thoughts and hearts, emphasizing the fragility of life and the importance of expressing love and appreciation.
Ngannou, known for his devastating punches and power in UFC's heavyweight division, took a break from the sport to pursue a career in boxing last year. However, he suffered two consecutive defeats, with his most recent one being against Anthony Joshua in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Despite these setbacks, Ngannou is set to make a comeback in the Professional Fighters League where he will continue to showcase his incredible talent and strength.
