AJ v Ngannou

Am I missing something here?

Whatever you think of this fight?

Why the hell does Joshua beating ngannu anyway earn the right to a fury/usyk fight?

Should have to go fight someone with a pulse who's going to hit him back and not just trouser the cash and jack.

Could at least go fight the little fat mexican again as it's only one one.

Also what's this nonsense about Joshua beating the same opponents that had already been beat and generally are much much older and them automatically becoming killers lol

The amount of shilling going on is insane.

 

Could well happen. I wonder whether Wilder will fight Zhang or Ruiz. The Ruiz fight is more winnable due to Ruiz being short and stubby and inactive and less powerful but I think Wilder's done either way. If Wilder fights Ruiz that would free up Zhang to fight Parker, which is a lot more interesting than Parker-Ruiz 2.

 

This fight on channel 5?

 

I think Ngannou will be easy work for AJ who will stop him in 5 rounds.

I much rather AJ fought Hrgovic instead.

 

Wallin and Wilders exposure has really dented furys hype train.

When usyk beats fury and AJ beats Ngannou the shoe will be well and truly on the other foot and all of a sudden AJ will be the real deal and fury the overated hype job.

I think that then sets up a more 50/50 split show down between AJ and fury later in the year.

Personally I don't belive fury had an off night agaisnt ngannou, I think he genuinely struggled against a novice. A big strong novice but AJ will wipe the floor with him.

 

I think it is a good match up and Joshua may fold should Ngannou land one and perhaps it may be the same if Joshua lands big.

Good compact defence, incredible boxing IQ for a novice, very good power and he made Fury look worse than plodder Chisora.

Would not be rushing to back large sums on either fighter and looking forward to a good fight.

 

Exactly same problems facing Joshua who is not exactly difficult to hit.

 

Which posts have any opponents which are now older been labelled as killers?

 

Apart from very old men, Joshua's power has seen very little timber falling when fighting Joey 12, Takam, Ruiz twice and Usyk twice.

It depends on whether Joshua is confident enough to take a punch on the way in with what is a very weak chin.

 

Joshua will also be there for those counter lefts like what N'Gannou dropped Fury with.

 

Doesn't mean Ngannou can't take them though. As @Beale says above, others have survived AJ's power. Ruiz maybe got knocked over, but he was far from buzzed by it.
