However, fans were surprised to see a different side of his personality in his latest upload, as the YouTuber broke down in tears while talking about the tragedy that has engulfed Ngannou’s life.

“I know from talking to this man what just a genuine, loving, caring person he is. And I can only imagine what a great father he was….I’ve got no doubt that baby boy….spurred him on.”
