Need Assistance .... OSPF Too Many retransmits.... MTU not the cause

I'm trying to get OSPF running on a firepower device connected to a router.

The OSPF adjacency looks like it was created, but no routes are traded and I keep getting the following error:
*Sep 14 18:12:03.795: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr 0.0.0.0 on GigabitEthernet0/1/0 from DOWN to DOWN, Neighbor Down: Ignore timer expired
*Sep 14 18:14:07.676: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr 1.1.1.1 on GigabitEthernet0/1/0 from EXSTART to DOWN, Neighbor Down: Too many retransmissions

I have looked at a few guides and community posts on this exact issue but none of their fixes seem to work for me.

The main issue that these posts talk about is MTU issues. 

Ive checked, changed, disabled, reenabled, and recreated everything on both sides

MTUs match, Router-IDs configured, sh ip ospf neighbors shows each other, but still no routes and error continues.

Here is the "debug ospf adj":

It wont let me answer you in the DM....there is a FW is a NGFW 2130 and a router C8300 and I am trying to create an OSPF connection between them. The connection is established but I cant see any routes traded and I get the error mentioned in my OP
