I don't hope for anything. I just think Francis is being overlooked and underestimated again. I saw better fundamentals from this man than seasoned pro's. Lots of areas of weakness still yes but an unbelievable platform to grow off. If he was 30 years old he is a certified champion in the making. Clearly his fighting experience has come into play more than anyone could have imagined. Clinching and wrestling in boxing is different to MMA and he handled that element with ease, he is literally the best grappler we've ever seen in HW boxing which is not a joke given that element can make up half the fight with these big men. To effectively manhandle Fury is no joke meanwhile AJ was getting bumped & handled physically by a damn cruiserweight. Francis shows things far beyond his experience levels, far beyond anything I've ever seen in the history of the sport.

This has nothing to do with bias or ill will, the safe play for me would be to claim like many others that AJ will do the business and Fury didn't come on form but I know different. AJ has two advantages over Fury going into this bout, raw power and they now have tape on Francis. The jab is the key and AJ can jab well but when Francis is throwing a right hand over the top or even turning southpaw and AJ is forced into a defensive mindset things will slowly fall apart. AJ is not a defensive fighter. He is a plodding basic bodybuilder and that's why he is going to have problems with a naturally bigger, naturally stronger & naturally tougher man who is not moveable mentally.

The writing is on the wall.

LOL You sure know your boxing. Explain how Ngannou's fundamentals are so good again and how he will man handle AJ?

Take debut AJ and stick him in with current Francis and AJ gets chinned 9 times out of the 10.

That's the difference

Francis is a born fighter. AJ is not.
