Heavyweight Boxing

I tend to agree with this, Ngannou deserves a lot of credit for last night but the one glaringly obvious thing for me was the fact he'd be very exposed against a pressure fighter, Fury for whatever reason wasn't interested, maybe he was too afraid of the power, but Ngannou would struggle against someone like Chisora, a decent pressure fighter would of gotten rid of him last night imo, he was gone in the latter rounds, he only got through it because Fury stood off.

Surely if you belts were on the line it wouid have been a different contest? Fury didn't look properly ready for last night.

At the end of the day nothing was on the line except a big payday. Nobody could really lose. Ngaannou will get more big paydays, and Fury obviously will.

Just saw the highlights, Francis was good but thought his head movement was poor. Thought fury looked a bit rattled and was worried. Fury looked not 100 percent although Francis and fury will improve if there's a rematch

Why don't Ahern take him on in a fight so?

Him getting a pasting would probably outsell any other fight.

Frank Warren now saying Fury vs Usyk unlikely to happen in Dec. Mentions March next year.

Just get the fight on ffs.

Yeh, well he does have a lil shiner under his left eye!!!!!!

That was Fury at 50% and it was very close. AJ will at least prepare properly if nothing else and that'll be more

than enough to beat Ngannou.

I'm gutted Fury wasn't handed a loss tbh as I don't believe he took that fight seriously at all, deserved nothing from it and it

only hurt his reputation and the ppv numbers possibly whenever he does fight Usyk.

AJ/Ngannou should look to fight each other, it's a big payday and a safe looking fight for AJ in my opinion.

I had it even the last night but figured even if ngannou was a round ahead in most peoples eyes they'd still give it to Fury, too corrupt and too much money would have been lost otherwise.

The only loser the last night was the sport of boxing but whether its ngannou/fury paul/diaz or the likes it seems people

still pay for these nonsense match ups (particularly paul diaz and paul askren, and that joke of a match between paul and Danis)

Lil shiner sitting on the face of a man humiliated by a novice. He's a cowboy.

What I dont understand that if they were going to rig the scorecards why have one of them 3 points ahead. That is just stupid.

Also 2 judges gave Fury round 7 . No way did Fury win that round.

Then we have John Fury saying Francis won one round.

Usyk will have him for breakfast, thats if Fury shows up of course.

The cards and result don’t really matter a damn.

The very fact he could easily have been the loser (justifiably) against an MMA fighter is the embarrassment.

Folks talking about him still winning is missing the wood for the trees.

I only gave Francis a KO shot, but he ends up being able to hang with Fury in a points/boxing scenario.

Fury was terrible looking trying in stamp his authority against a novice pro.

I have mentioned styles making fights, and although Usyk is not near comparable to Francis, I’d still be wee bit more confident now that Usyk beats Fury. I think physically and mentally he’s more solid, consistent and dependable than Fury.

Expect Fury to yet again duck Usyk.

I doubt he trained like he would have for say, Wilder or Wlad, but he had to do some training..

rematch? Definitely a possibility. And means he can kick the Usyk can farther down the road..and try to fool the usual gullible sods that a rematch is the right thing for boxing

Usyk won’t have him for breakfast, he went the distance with Del Boy and wasn’t amazing against Joshua last time either.

I rewatched the fight , Fury won by a round maybe two , tlaks of a robbery are way off,

The fight was a stinker, Fury was woeful but Franics was pretty awful himself,

I honestly think even the likes of Ruiz would destroy Francis,

I think Fury went in thinking he wouldn't have to come out of second gear & then panicked when he wasn't hurting Francis,

It was the equivalent of a top Prem team playing a really poor 2nd division side in the Fa Cup & getting dragged down to there level & scrapping by

Usyk said himself it reminded hi of his fight against Del Boy where he just never got going but just did enough & everyone doubted him,

I also think everyone is going over board, He;ll get his sh*t together & on to the next one ,

Well, glad to see and read that I am not bonkers in thinking that Francis isn't some world-beater now based off Fury struggling terrible with him

there will be a rematch you'd imagine after the Uysk fights.
