    1. Performances on common opponents don’t mean anything. The same 2024 Frank Bruno lost to a fat hamburger no one knew about. Sure he avenged it in a rematch against the hamburger who literally live-streamed his binge eating sessions.
    2. Tyson fury didn’t take that fight seriously and didn’t even look like he sparred more than 20 rounds in the entire “training camp”.

    Not training for long period of time can do things to your skill set and skill level.

    I think it's a case of Fury not taking Ngannou seriously, followed by AJ taking him very seriously. Flip the order around and you'd likely see AJ have a harder time but winning, followed by Fury playing it super safe and getting a wide UD.

    Or maybe the styles just meshes badly. It's boxing.

    Let’s see how fatty keeps up with a guy with the skills, chin, movement and output of Usyk. Old mud guts is in danger of losing via coronary considering the low output trash he’s fought for the last half decade.

    Excellent video rummy thank you for posting it. This is a very legitimate question that you're asking, seeing the current condition that boxing is in unfortunately.

    I am still getting the gut feeling that Fury is going to destroy Usyk. I've had this feeling ever since the fight was announced and it won't go away unfortunately LOL because Oleksandr is one of the few modern Fighters that I root for so we'll see what happens. I will be more than happy if I am wrong.

    Let the true modern day heavyweight champion be determined!

    His royal Excrement wants Fury to win so. Sadly that he has brought in Adelaide Byrd as one of the judges. Usyk will have to blast Fury to Mecca before he can earn a decision.

    Joshua scored a loss against Usyk prior to coming to the Saudi showdown and was the major draw, there was no favouritism towards Joshua.

    Ultimately, the Saudi’s will back the winner of the fight and won’t try and pull a fast one. Why? Because it’s non sensical to go against the grain. Too many eyes watching.

    Usyk will get a fair shake against Fury I’m sure of it.

    The world is getting more honest by the day.

    To be somewhat Fair, if something strange does happen during the fight and it happens to be an actual occurrence and not planned, there will still be huge numbers of people saying that it was fixed anyway.

    Imaging thinking a pro fighter that gets XX million won't train for a fight. Sorry to tell you, but his own wife, which is the only person that is not full of s**** from that family confirmed he was away for 12 week camp.
    They say it long before the fight that he is having 12 week camp.

    Typical from Fury fanboys making excuse for everything related to Fury, but when it comes to other fighters with a legit problem, Fury fanboys claims it's a silly excuse.

    Sorry to bring it to you, but that was Ngannou first fight in Boxing, first fight in 2 years after hard knee injury, and he undergo surgery for it. If anyone could have a legit excuse is Ngannou.

    Performance on common opponents don't mean anything, but to a degree. If the height/reach/style wise they are similar, then it's actually mean a lot.
    Fury couldn't move Ngannou, good luck handling AJ in the clinch, he will get smashed in there.
    AJ is going to do a job on Fury, but Fury is going to duck that fight like a plague.

    And yeah keep crying with the silly excuse Fury didn't train for that fight. Ngannou didn't either, and still smashed the fraud face.

    Its funny because this "movement" cant help him and he was knockdown by amateur. Same time this poor version of Bruno without footwork smash this dude without any problem being much much faster.

    I see old myth how Fury is soo much better than all other still live in some fanboy heads...

    Even if Fury didn't take Ngannou seriously why wasn't he able to adapt? Not like Ngannou was doing anything super complex in there. If anything Ngannou was beginning to take control of the fight towards its apex which indicates extremely poor ring iq from Fury. And ring iq isn't something you need to train weeks on end for.

    Skills are also something which to a large degree are muscle memory, and while a lack of training can impact them you're still going to able to pull them out the bag when need be. Look how effortlessly James Toney was able to execute pull counters even when a fat slob with a papier mache blob for a brain.

    What precisely about Ngannou's style didn't mesh well for Fury? He wasn't particularly quick or nimble or elusive. He was a mostly static target throwing big wild swings from a basic boxing stance. And if he can't beat a fighter like that then what hope does he have against Joshua himself?
