Tyson Luke Fury vs. Francis Zavier Ngannou

True. If we compare their boxing skills, McGregor makes Ngannou look like combination of prime Joe Louis and Larry Holmes at their peaks.

 

How is that embarrassing to boxing?

 

Thank god for 'Sugar' Jake Paul destroying UFC/MMA champions in boxing and defending boxings reputation.

 

Parker has 0 chance of getting a fight with Francis.

Francis is 37 now, he is only fighting HUGE fights now. Wilder for 15-20 Mill, Fury rematch (depending on Wilder result and Fury vs Usyk) and Joshua fight.

In those 3 fights he will earn over 40 million.

 

everyone know boxing is 99% mental furys mind was not set properly for this fight he was looking past his opponent and already talking about a big fight in the future

 

When he was 22 he started training boxing and wanted to be a champ, he was talked into doing MMA instead by his trainer.

If 22 year old Ngannou stayed with pure boxing, he'd have a net worth of over 100 M by now and be the reigning champ.

 

He probably trained but yeah, his mental was ****ed. I could see he was just trying to knock Francis out in the first 3 rounds and thought it would be easy. Like Wilder's face vs Fury in the second fight, you could visible see Fury was SHOCKED by Francis' strength and power. Fury had that 'OH ****' look on his face, like he had no idea what he was up against.

 

Fury has been living off beating a gunshy old Wlad (where he won 7-8 rounds simply by landing a few scuffy jabs) and beating a right hand for several years now.

However, the Ngannou we saw in there looked like a stiff bum that AJ, Wilder and Whyte would bomb out. As overhyped as Fury is it looked like all he did for this fight was lose weight and not properly train.

If he did train hard, he should be ashamed of himself as that was embarassing

 

Well that’s on Fury and him alone,hopefully this is the kick up the arse he needs as that performance was terrible last night and a disgrace to his fans ! Fury needs to get himself in shape,get back to being a boxer and forget all about himself being a puncher cos this he is definitely not ! He needs to reduce the entourage and excess baggage that has built up of late,get himself focussed and motivated,remove all distractions and yes men starting first with his Dad and then lock himself away in a proper training camp and actually start listening to his trainer especially when in the corner !

 

It's his fault. There's a reason that every martial art school will teach you to never underestimate your opponent. We've seen time and time again countless examples in every combat sport of fighters getting destroyed by guys they should have handled easily because they didn't respect them enough to take them seriously. It's literally your job as a professional athlete to be in shape and be in the best form possible before your fights. If you can't do that anymore, it's time to retire.

 

The first 10 seconds of the fight concerned me, why was Fury trying to knock out Ngannou?

 

Exactly. Why make excuses for Fury. It’s his job to be physically and mentally ready. If he can’t do that, he can’t fight.

 

How'd you sleep last night?

You better hope he finds a way to retire, otherwise, the middleweight is going to put the final nail in his legacy.
Your post history has aged incredibly well for the last 3 months, you absolute melt

 

He'd have been a problem similar to Ike Ibeabuchi.
I'm convinced that if he'd even had 3 years just focusing on boxing and his cardio, he would have knocked fury out

 

if even at 30% you’re going life and death with a novice MMA fighter…maybe you’re not the best heavyweight in the world.
