Tyson Luke Fury vs. Francis Zavier Ngannou

Didnt watch the other two fights but doing that against a what? 40 lbs smaller opponent isnt really impressive.

Wilder got freakish strength but Fury was in good shape and 40lbs is just too much.

 

Premature - if he went and schooled/Ko'd Usyk his legacy would be intact. Ngannu's legacy would be massively elevated.

 

Frankly, I think Francis could be put to sleep by Wilder and to be honest, that jaw he has, I don't think it's as good as they say and you'll soon know why I say it... I sincerely think that Fury humiliated boxing by being a lazy drug addict without any type of discipline... total unconscious

 

Yep, Fury sold out the whole sport of boxing

 

Watch this video. It's the evidence how strong a former HW fringe contender Arthur Szpilka is.

Mariusz Pudzianowski, a former 5-time World Champion as a strongman, tried to put him on the ground. But Szpilka held his own and did pretty well.

And dare I say Mariusz Pudzianowski even in his mid 40s is physically stronger than Ngannou, no doubt about it.

Unfortunately it didn't end well for Mariusz as Szpilka weathered that attack and knocked him out with a counter.

But it is worth watching. Szpilka's chin is extremely glass, but his strength is real.

Randy Couture beat Toney with wrestling. Toney's only chance was to keep Couture on the outside and and catch him coming in if possible. Couture was an national level wrestler, once Couture got a hold of him it was over. You can't train for a few months and think you can compete with a true wrestler.

 

It was an exhibition that he looked bad in and Ngannou played his part better; that is all. No different than Tyson refusing to punch Roy in the face, really. The guy is about to fight for the undisputed title; why would he go all out here?

 

Mma fans won't ever let it go
Naseem.hamed could come back and beat Francis, it makes no difference

Fury could also knock out usyk and Aj on the same night and nothing changes

That fat oaf has disgraced the entire sport. Losing to Ngannou is worse than Ducking Usyk imo

It is certainly much lower than any of his highs. If Fury brought about World peace? I still don't think it's enough

I still am in shock thar lump got beat by an mma guy?? Lol

I don't care how gifted Francis supposed to be, that is an actual disgrace

 

He got stunned/hurt a few times from a jab here and there by a wrestler and gane. dead Stipe almost did the impossible but the size was too much and then he runned like an idiot right into ngannous fist.

Thats the only things i remember.

 

Spinks was a gold medalist and the younger man, so yeah this is much worse
Had Francis 3 or 4 fights against decent opposition first? It would still be bad, but not quite as damning

Fury lost a fight against a guy making his professional boxing debut and not a young man either

I don't care how great he is at mma, how much power he carries, or how much natural talent he possess.

Fury can never recover from that and it will be the first thing fans think of when they discuss legacy

He let the sport down and he let himself down

It's karma for being greedy and taking a sideshow and overlooking his opponent

 

That one's probably the "top fighter" Francis has the best odds of beating... Because he's massively overrated with a resume of 99% nobodies and his power is somewhat overrated.

Yes Ngannou is hittable, but he's got a better chin than anyone Wilder's knocked out and he hits hard enough to knock out a guy that's been beaten up twice by a renowned pillowfist.

Probably still slightly favour Wilder, but Francis would have a chance at least.

 

You think it was staged?
I don't agree. He is a laughing stock and a few more (many) millions will never erase it

He was just rubbish and lost to a better man

 

But he won though? I don’t understand your point.

 

Muhhahahhahahah as i says Fury is featherfisted bum.
Ngannou literally mopped the floor with him. He beats him pretty much for the majority of the rounds.
Fury was scared to dead to throw a single arm punch, aka his usual jabs and power shots.
Absolutely pathetic.

The Boxer launching an elbow strike on the MMA fighter. Pure class. Luckily for Francis he's taken plenty of better elbows in the past.
