    AJ is no defensive wizard but it is down to Francis to find the opening.

    Joshua UD. It won't be a repeat of Wallin as Joshua respects Ngannou's power too much to sit down on his punches. Expect Joshua to stay outside and clinch. Ngannou just isn't mobile enough to close the distance effectively but he will be dangerous in flashes.

    Ngannou's gas tank is quite suspect as well, I'm betting an AJ win in the distance there's some good odds

    Definite gas issues. You notice he didn't jump on Fury at all at the knockdown, was too concerned about blowing the tank. Still a 10 rounder also, surely should be 12 if a serious top end fight.

    Aj stops him in 5 rounds, don’t think he drops him but the ref steps in

    Don't think I've seen pork belly slice looking so thin.

    Has he lost muscle mass, only His right arm looks like a twiglet from the camera angle. His left arm looks ok on full extension, but that's probs his tugging arm...;)

    If he loses any more weight I'll have to stop calling him pork belly slice and re-name him streaky bacon rasher.

    :lol:

    There is 2 options.
    Joshua with Ben after Helenius fight look phenomenal on training and they belive in him 100% again.
    Second option is that they just make good community interview and they knew smth about Ngannou that even Fury fight dont show.

    Francis train boxing, with boxers for long time now. Lot of sparring and other. They probably knew all about him and maybe truth is that he is just good. Joshua is better than "just good".

    I dont belive in third option that they are just stupid as... and they risk destroy all Anthony carrer making his fight with mega puncher if he is still menthal not sure...

    Ngannou to Fury: "I'm going to wipe the ring with your ass again. There was blood in the ring and it stick in your pants. Your only chance is in the boxing ring with the boxing rules. When you step out of that ring, you'd better stay five meters away before I stuff your ****. Because, if I lose it, you're going to have a really bad time. So, respect the fact that boxing is protecting you. Because, without that, you are nothing in front of me. I beat you every day and twice on Sunday."

    Ngannou going in hard on Fury and Tyson getting jittery.

    Joshua is playing second fiddle to these two.

    Amazing.

    How cute

    "I'm going to wipe the ring with your ass again. There was blood in the ring and it stick in your pants."

    Did Francis just imply that he butt raped Fury?

    Kind of hot :b2:

    As a boxing fan, he isn’t wrong. Anywhere except the boxing ring he wouldn’t have a chance against Francis.

    It wasn't the very best of ideas, pork belly slice actually getting in the ring with Francis.


    Belly needs to avoid the carpark with him at all costs.


    It wouldn't end very well.

    :ambulance:

    He was not so confident and proud (Fury) after last bell in their fight. He look like beaten dog...

    Not good idea talking like that to Francis after soo horrible performance.
    But maybe its part of the deal. Maybe Tyson trying make Francis lost his focus on friday fight.
