    Lennox has gone down in my estimation after that

    The way he looked I don't see him ever fighting Usyk tbh. I wouldn't be surprised if he quietly retires.

    He never did have the makings of a varsity athlete.

    Tyson is not 6ft 9 lol. Usyk is almost his size. He looked only 2 inches taller than Usyk

    No wonder Fury has ducked Usyk

    dear oh dear oh dear…

    Boxing just doesn’t care about blatant corruption. There is no subtlety in it.

    We as fans deserve better.

    Just back from the gym. Have read a few reports.

    After all the know all comments, week after week, nobody saw it playing out like it did. Time for a rethink 'experts.'

    i think ngannou bringing his mma fighting style and mindset served him well - brought something different to the table. ironically the more he trains boxing the worse his performance may be if he rematches tyson

    also making tyson come forward wa a good tactic. never was fury in a position to get a counter punching rythym going

    Fury was saying Usyk had to fight him on 23rd or he would be breech of contract.
    Suddenly changed his tune hahahaha

    He did but probably lost those last few too after encouraging & approving Terrorists acts.

    Yeh but they are boxers this is an mma guy. I would have expected any top 20/30 hw to wipe the floor with ngannou. An mma guy shouldn't be able to do that to any legit boxer mevermind the champ.of the world. Completely shocked.

    Anywhere from 96-93 Fury to 95-94 Ngannou was fair. The judges were on point.
