    Amen to that! Ali, Foreman, and Norton is another example of styles making fights.

    If Ngannou had managed to get the nod over Fury, then Tyson Fury would definitely have been looking for a rematch! As it stands, Tyson Fury has the win over Francis Ngannou on his record and should probably just leave it alone. I have no desire to see a rematch.

    Another good example, Shay.
    :thumbsup:


    I was just thinking, to have made these examples even more definitive and complete, wouldn't it have been good if both Frazier & Norton had fought each other too?.

    I've always wondered who would have won out of these two.

    Fury isn't making the same mistake twice.

    He'd box properly in a rematch even though his arms are ailing and make easy work of it. Wouldn't KO him though.

    For whatever my opinion is worth, I strongly believe that Joe Frazier would have beaten Ken Norton head to head. But THAT would have been a very interesting fight, and it could have answered a couple questions I have always had about those two!

    Interesting replies, thank you.
    Personally, I had no interest in the first fight. Or a rematch.
    I'm not against gimmick fights per se. But only AFTER a boxer has already done everything they need to do in the ring first. A bit like Mayweather \ McGregor, which didn't really have any consequences for the wider division or any other potential Floyd opponent.
    But Fury still has a lot to do in that respect - maybe ironically more than ever after that terrible first Ngannou fight.

    I'm sure there would have been two fights between them as well.

    They did keep busy in the 70's.

    All three of those fighters were better than Francis.

    Joshua's win obviated any need for a Fury-Ngannou rematch. If Fury gets past Usyk then the fight to make is with Joshua.

    No. His countryman Joshua already avenged Fury's honour and restored the reputation of the sport. No need for Fury to go back into the fire. Besides, he's got Usyk business to attend to. Go get 'em Tyson!

    Quickly forgetting who gave him his biggest payday and opportunity which quickly turned to crying.

    AJ just off camera.

    They've done each other a favour really. AJ did a proper job on Francis and Fury will do a proper job on Usyk. Still expect Fury to retire though.

    Only man Francis can blame is himself for not picking up the tempo. Became a victim of his own hype.

    Didn't you say that Ngannou would beat AJ? All you did was clown AJ repeatedly. Now you're talking up his easy win over the granite chinned monster named Ngannou? Someone that Fury arguably lost to. You really need to remain silent until after the Usyk fight. Only come back if Fury wins. If he loses, be gone from this site forever.
