Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua vs. Francis Zavier Ngannou & Zhilei Zhang vs. Joseph Parker RBR.

Mate, there are people in here who stated that Zhang would beat George Foreman. Stated that he’d beat Frazier, Ali even.

Those idiots should be called out.

Zhang is a fringe contender who throws big. Guys like Zhang are a dime a dozen.

 

Mate this people are either smoking meth or just the casual fanboys who lose their minds everytime a guy gets a big stoppage (happens but still).

Zhang has special power imo, he barely landed and had Parker down which is a hard feat in itself. Still though his engine and activity are hardly world class. I still think he’s a top 10 guy and I think he would probably beat/have very close fights with the likes of Whyte, Ruiz, Hrgovic, etc.

 

It must be pretty daunting being in the same room as someone who has the wealth that can make anything possible and that can make people do whatever you want them to do and then having the power of a nation to back you up.
It’s also worth noting that he appears to be pretty cavalier and impulsive that is a scary combination, I wouldn’t like to be in the same room with someone like that.
He is actually untouchable.
He literally does what he wants, he does what he wants turkey the sheikh he does what he wants.

 

I know mate but I think there’s a fear element there too, I can’t imagine anyone saying no to that man.

 

Yeah bu, but Fury is mental and a recovering drug addiction and alcoholic. He's the greatest just for overcoming all that and able to step in the ring. Oh, and his baby had covid. LOL

 

Oh, I agree Arch - I thought GF won - that’s what I meant by (“at least, imo, he did”) - unless it came across ambiguously.

 

He is a cheat and that will never be forgotten so how anyone can lord him and his achievements is beyond me, he should not be allowed to call himself the lineal champion, when they do the ring announcement when they come in the ring they should have to say “the wbc heavyweight champion, the wba champion and the lineal champion he eats wild boar and once tested positive for nandroloneeeee both his a and his b sample the one the only Tyson Fury…and then they play a video of pumba from the lion king singing a kuna matata…

 

Yeah but Fury is bigger=GOAT.

 

Yes, he is

 

You beat me to it as I'm catching up ~9PM EST. To Olu, IF is a big word

 

Like Ali did Foreman

 

I thought Ngannou said that boxers were protected.

 

Yeah what did frank have to do with the main event there, he had no dog in the fight.
I would love to see the pair of them challenged to a sales pitch contest like in the wolf of Wall Street where he’s like right sell me this pen.
I think it would be genius.
Hearn has a talent for absolute hype mongering and then backtracking and going in a completely different direction.
He has been a huge influence on the popularity in resurgence of the sport though and that is hard to ignore.
