Reality Check Time! Oleksandr Usyk is Still The P4P Number One Fighter On The Planet. This Is Why...

He got blown away in a round by a Daniel Dubois victim and scored 0 wins. Ngannou is not that guy serge

 

It must be really frustrating to be Ngannou, imagine getting ****-talked for your boxing performances at 38 when you can quite literally kill any boxer that ever walked the planet with your bare hands.

 

Bit of a difference.

Mayweather was 40 years old and hadn't fought in over 2 years.

Fury was an active champion and was supposed to be the best Heavyweight in the world at that time.

Lewis also wouldn't take a clown fight like the Ngannou fight especially when he was an active champion.

Lewis sometimes did take a few fights not as seriously but he never got to the point like Fury where he looked obese in the ring with rolls of fat hanging down over his trunks.

Also if Lewis did take the Ngannou fight which he wouldn't but let's say he did and he was in the modern era earning massive pay day with a big audience ? I would think Lewis would want to make a statement and blow away Ngannou.

Yes anyone with a big punch is a threat but I wasn't that impressed with Ngannou's power vs Fury. To me it just showed how poor Fury looked the punch that floored him didn't even look like a hard punch Fury was just that bad that night.

 

In what scenario would he have a chance to do that? If it’s a street fight what’s stopping the boxer from using weapons or have other people jump in? What’s the use grappling someone if you’re gonna get head stomped by some random person .

 

Losses and bad performances are more excusable when you fight a lot of top contenders. The more fights against quality opposition the greater the probability of defeat. Likely no fighter could have 300 pro fights without a loss.
With Fury his bad performances are a bad look because he's largely avoided his contemporaries and didn't fight Kabayel, Joshua, Zhang, Joyce, Bakole, Parker, Ruiz, Miller, etc, etc. Despite this he's lucky not to have multiple losses including tko losses to Wallin and Wilder.

Having numerous bad performances despite barely fighting any top 10 opponents isn't the same thing as having bad performances when you fight everybody and it seems disingenuous to claim they are the same thing. Surely an Usyk with 200 pro fights who had beaten 30 ranked contenders would be afforded more leeway in terms of bad performances.

 

Any scenario where it's a 1 on 1 fight with no weapons.

 

So basically a sanctioned fight with rules like in the UFC. I agree, a UFC fighter would beat a boxer under specialized MMA rules.

 

Let me a bit more specific. Rules, no rules, in the ring, in the octagon, on Earth, on the Moon, sanctioned, non-sanctioned, as long as it's 1 on 1 and there are no weapons Ngannou owns every single boxer that has ever existed.

 

So a 1 on 1 with no weapons aka a fight with a rule set. What you don’t seem to understand is that there’s no rules in a street fight. What happens if Francis time travels to the 1940s and randomly picks a fight with someone like Sonny Liston who had hundreds of street fights and a violent history outside of the ring. What is Francis gonna do when he grabs Liston then Liston suddenly pulls a blade from his side pocket and stabs Francis in the kidneys. Has Francis ever been in actual street fights or known for his violent history outside of the ring like Liston was known for?

Honestly the only time Francis’s skill set would actually shine in a fight is if both men are butt naked in a prison cell with no resources besides their body parts. They already have something like that and it’s called the UFC.

 

I don't know why you make Liston out to be Al Capone, his "violent history" consists of a few fist fights with the cops, resisting arrest and some robberies (a single one at gun point in which nobody got injured). He's been rumoured to be a mob leg-breaker but it's just that, some rumours about him beating citizens up for extortion. Him stabbing Ngannou is about as likely as Ngannou pulling out a gun and shooting him in the face, most likely scenario is Liston throwing a punch at Ngannou and waking up in ICU a week later.

 

He was a literal mob enforcer in the 1950s, he served jail time for this in St Louis in one of the worst U.S prisons of all time. quick google search shows Listons violent past, I’m not really sure why you’re trying to downplay it as simply being rumors as if YouTube or Reddit existed back then. Francis on the other hand has had 0 street fight experience on his resume, quick google search claims that he was basically a Boy Scout before becoming a prize fighter compared to a hardened, violent man like Sonny Liston. I doubt Ngannou even knows how to use a handgun but Liston always carried a weapon with him, if anything he’ll be the one shooting Francis in the face.

 

Any boxer? Usyk has been practicing various forms or grappling since before he boxed, which is why he wants to have a low-level MMA match or two, just to show that off. Ngannou certainly has more sport experience grappling, but then, sport, even MMA, is a little different than street fighting.

Might be competitive. And he's not the only one.
