    Johnson/Ketchel moment there for Fury, only he made himself look like a complete dumbass after all the smack he talked. The knockdown shocked him more than anything and he clearly didn't train for this fight that much, obviously he screwed up. Francis fought a perfect fight though, he fought exactly how I envisioned it, he deserves credit.

    Tyson Fury won that in my opinion regardless.

    Hide behind the official scorecards I see. hose first two rounds were razor close, with neither man landing a hell of a lot clean. They could've gone either way, This conversation is over.

    No it's not. Ngannou was robbed. No way Fury won 7 rounds.

    Fury didn't take this fight seriously at all. He barely threw his hands, looked out of shape and frankly didn't really seem to be there beyond picking up a paycheck. Using this fight as any kind of yardstick is meaningless.

    Yup that's what i was thinking, he obviously is very grateful they protected his undefeated record tonight, now we know what makes him hush, that is all.

    It was made quite clear, numerous times, that the December 23rd date was dependent on how Fury came through this fight.

    Ngannou couldn’t even keep up with ciryl gane’s striking in the ufc and had to grapple all fight. The quality in the heavyweight division is **** poor

    Hurray for robberies (that wasn't really but that it was close enough was deeply worrying) :lol:

    I think it was closer then people are saying. I thought Francis won but a lot of rounds were very close with neither guy showing an edge

    He showed such a lack of precision that is hard to believe. I dont believe it, literally. I would swear that he was aiming to nowhere. I dont believe it was a legit fight, I think that this **** was staged and that it was a scam.

    For god's sake, gnandu had ZERO head movement. NONE. For a world champion it's impossible to miss so much vs a static target unless on purpose.

    Before Fury retires he has to give Ngannou a rematch,even if he was to win Undisputed he can’t retire,he owes this man a rematch ! Tbh both were poor more so Fury without a doubt,fight was very sporadic for nothing happening and Fury loading up on every punch which is something he has never done in his career,he’s never been a legit puncher and never will ,simply WTF !

    You mean like you do every single time you post an absurd card, and the 5% chance a single judge agrees with you?

    Now go ahead and ban me again for calling out your hypocrisy.

    I still favor Fury over Usyk.

    The story of the fight is Ngannou is built like reinforced concrete like they use for missile bunkers, he's also got good power and timing too.

    He deserves a rematch with Fury for the belt.
