    He trained seriously in boxing prior to MMA. In fact he wanted to go pro as a boxer but got a more lucrative offer to go MMA. He didnt just take up boxing for Fury, he did it for years thats why he was able to pick up so quickly. This isn't a typical MMA fighter like McGregor or one of Jake Pauls opponents that look like anateurs when boxing. Ngannou is one of those fighters that if he had stuck with boxing, he could've been a dominant heavy weight champion like Tyson himself or Lennox Lewis. He might still get that chance, and AJ is a sucker for left hooks and tends to get hurt badly from them. I wouldn't be surprised if AJ does the chicken dance like Whyte and Ruiz did to him, win or lose.

    I don’t know exactly how much he trained boxing. But I still think he will improve quite a bit in his next fights coming, how much does depend on how much training In Boxing he did previously. But I can see he has made a lot of improvements since the Stipe fights.

    I think AJ will put him in his place and show that ngannou is a novice.

    I didn't see anything about ngannou to trouble AJ. I think he will box his head off and flatten him. Let's face it fury punches like a fairy compared to AJ.

    Mark my words

    AJ come out scared thinking he can throw out a simple jab and control the fight

    Not going to happen.

    Francis will beat him to the jab then wobble him with a hook and it will be downhill from there

    AJ doesnt have the power to command respect from Francis who will simple walk thro his jabs to get his shots in. Francis is a hard hard ba&%ard who although doesnt have the boxing IQ and pedigree he makes up for it in his power, determination, mindset and hunger to overcome the hardships of life. Its crazy to say it but Francis is going to obliterate AJ if he gets landing (AJ is gonna run like a 5hitebag from the get go....not a chance in hell will he stand toe to toe) Even more so when AJ realises he has nothing in the bag to trouble Francis....Hearn has throw him to the wolves...its over for AJ after this!!

    Not sure about outboxing him, but a knockout won't surprise me that much

    AJ ran like a baby deer against 5'10" Ruiz Jr straight out of KFC

    When he has 6'4" 270 pound Francis feinting legs kicks and getting him in headlocks it will be over.

    Joshua has become the type of fighter when someone knocks him out, my facial expression during the moment of the knockout remains the same because I am not surprised, according to everything, Joshua will ensure victory by UD because he will not take risks, he will successfully control the distance.

    Francis will turn southpaw and crack AJ with a left hand in round 1 and AJ's jab gameplan will go out the window, he will start running and get sloppy, Francis will hunt him down and grab him into submission. Only reason Fury didn't get grabbed into submission is because he was the best clincher in the sport, up in till Francis showed up.

    AJ is done for.

    Francis is going to get under him and eat him up.

    Francis is speed running his way to a world title & nobody can stop him. He is an enigma, he was sent by god to be the wrath on boxing for our arrogance.

    It is pretty funny how people have tried to brush that Fury fight aside and gone right back to acting like Ngannou has no chance. Now Fury is **** and AJ is some kind of master boxer apparently.

    Reality check will come after Fury sets about Usyk.
