Stylistic differences between N'Gannou and Usyk

Fury came in well underdone against Ngannou who is now being severely overrated.
Usyk deserves full credit if he does indeed beat Fury.

 

Stop with the excuses. Fury looked like he always does. He couldn't put a dent in francis and his usual rough guy tactics weren't working in the clinch. Francis wasn't biting on his feints as he wasnt scared of tysons power at all. Usyk would get ran over even quicker, guy punches like malignaggi at HW.

 

Good summary and i overall agree .

I think ngannou,s secret is his extraordinary power in his entire body . From feet to head he is probably the physically most powerful athlete ever seen in a boxing ring and there will be something in it he is the official world record holder in punching force . The punch that dropped fury looked slow but i think it had a massive momemtum / force generated from his entire body .

Further his body seems to give him an enormous resistance in eating shots , it might be close to impossible to drop him .

This carried him thru the fight where he technically of course is inferior to any top 10 boxer , let alone to usyk .

I have no idea how a fight between him and usyk might look like . It might be usyk dramatically outboxes him giving francis no chance to hit usyk at all and ends with a massive points decision towards usyk and against a frustrated and tired ngannou .

No ko , usyk has never the power to drop ngannou .

But It might also ends ngannou is able to corner usyk and break his his ribs from a single body hook .

Nobody can say and i,m sure usyk is easily smart enough to not even try to infight or clinch and wrestle ngannou .

 

@iceferg According to your rankings, Fury will obliterate Usyk easily. Speed isn't everything in heavyweight boxing.

 

Usyks punch resistance is definitely higher than 6, same with Stamina, can't think of a fitter guy p4p

 

There was one point where Fury smashed him with a right hand right on the side of the jaw and would probably have staggered or dropped any HW.
Ngannou barely looked phased and went on attacking. Even in MMA where strength and size are more important than skill, Ngannou was regarded as way above normal.

 

Usyk's punch resistance a 6 ? Hes fought some big punchers like Joshua, Gassiev, and his chin has always held up definitely better than a 6.

Unless your factoring into punch resistance regarding Usyk's abdomen aswell ? Which does look a bit dodgy.

But I don't see how Usyk's chin wouldn't atleast be an 8.

 

Francis is better than AJ & Chisora

 

You can write your next post about the strategic differences in chess between an orangutan and magnus carlsen. It will collocate really well with this one.

 

Imagine if it was makdomov that night
Woah

 

Joyce walked thru everything until he didn't.

 

You can always discuss about the scala , but when ngannou,s punch resistance is 8.5 as a deadline , usyk,s is never more than 6 - and that would be very good !

Especially in punch resistance and body strenght ngannou will be the benchmark of all current hw,s .

 

Need to see Ngannou again to assess his level. Hopefully not against Chisora btw.
