Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Shockingly Dropped in Third, Overcomes Tough Moments To Barely Edge Francis Ngannou

[Thatmanox]

he won more than two rounds, only casuals resort to "ohhh an obvious win... nobody knows how to score a fight..." No, effective punching, being the aggressor, effectively, etc... Fury lost. it was a close fight with rounds going to both, with a knockdown... Boxing scoring has to have some connection to reality. Nobody would claim fury won that fight lol...

Are you mentally challenged? Typical casual lmao. You lost even more credibility when you said fury lost. You realize only you and a couple helmet wearers only think Francis won correct? Did you forget to take your medicine this morning? Did you forget to wear your helmet and fall?

I agree, they are. But from a risk-reward perspective it's a massive opportunity. Ngannou has just made himself a big name so a fight with him is big money in itself and it would set up a subsequent fight with Fury too. That's huge $$$. We still don't know that Ngannou is all that either. Fury fought a bad fight and styles make fights.

It's probably irrelevant though, I think we'll see Fury-Ngannou 2 now and Usyk having all options on the table, retirement, a stay busy, just waiting or taking another big fight instead.

I think the main advantages Ngannou had that Usyk won't have are:

1. Ngannou is super strong as we have seen in the MMA cage. Fury's Tactic of putting his weight on the opponent like he did to wear out Wilder didn't work at all because of Ngannou's super human physical strength. Usyk won't have this advantage. Fury will be able to wear him down in the clinch.

2. Ngannou's punching power. He had enough punching power to drop Fury badly and keep him honest throughout the fight. While Usyk is a very good sharp shooter, his punching power is nothing special and Fury will be able to walk him down if he has to.

These are the reasons they say styles make fights. Obviously Usyk is more skillful and more experienced than Ngannou but he doesn't have the physical stats to counter Fury's advantages like Ngannou did.

HOWEVER, as a great man once said: "There is more than one way to skin a cat."

Usyk fans should hope that he has found the other way because he isn't going to be able to do what Ngannou did..

YOu and your butbuddy that keeps liking your ****** comment are amusing... Yes there are subtleties in the scoring of a match. NO, this does not negate a fight where fury was controlled a good deal of the fight, got hit with the more effective punches, Possibly got dropped another time, and where compubox numbers actually mean something... Fury was beaten and Vegas did not want to take the hit... And even one judge understood.

Do you just randomly comment on everything to get your score up to try to adjust to your little knowledge of boxing and to look like you’re credible? You must have all the time in the world rolling around with your helmet on. I bet your mom’s real proud someone as special as yourself is able to try to look relevant even though the don’t know anything about boxing. Nice try bileoobear.

The Saudis have so much money... Culturally they don't care about the sport, its just Nero's circus... A degrading freak show... And one that stinks of corruption. There was no way Francis was going to get that win unless he knocked Fury's head off. Boxing just keeps getting more and more about bread and circus.' In the Saudi world fury's lack of dignity, lack of respect for the position of heavyweight champ is rewarded with gifts and a gift decision. Makes one sick...

Jesus Christ, every comment you write is a hilarity. You must like sucking bbc’s when you have that helmet on. Francis isn’t going to see your comments buddy, he’s not going to get into your DM’s and want you to suck him off. Balls deep in, and you still are too slow to even understand boxing. I’m wondering, did your parents drop you on your head?

I didn’t see the fight but I am seeing a number of credible people saying they thought Ngannou won.

Punching inside someone else's punches is counter punching and I've been saying it for years fury is a fraud.

You've obviously fell for the media spin that wilders better than mike tyson or geroge foreman


You're a moron

N Gannou is not a counterpuncher, he is not even a boxer to begin with.
You are talking crap.



You don't know what I think about Wilder and Foreman.

Have fun calling Fury a bum, this is your day

[SweetPbfAli]

People have to realize that Fury is also 35 and has lived pretty hard outside the ring in addition to stints of inactivity. This could possibly be the current version of him.

There's not gonna be a Usyk fight in December, that's for sure. There will likely be talk of a rematch given the controversy of the result. Every other top level fighter will be desperate to get their hands on Ngannou too so they can fight the guy who beat the man. The biggest loser here is probably Usyk.

I think this has massive implications for everything everybody expected to happen. I reckon the rematch is more likely than the unification. Usyk would then be looking for a new opponent if he sticks around, potentially Wilder? Which complicates things for AJ. Lot's of speculation but it's not hard to see how significant the domino effect could be. Even if Fury did crack on with Usyk. Wilder/AJ etc would then be desperate to fight Ngannou to say they beat the guy that "beat" Fury.

If Fury - Usyk is aborted Usyk will have to face Hrgovic. Not a bad fight.

Fury as the no1 world champion can not have any excuses. Out of shape okay , shouldn’t be . He had his advantages taken away by this totally underrated brick of a class man that , edged this contest . This man would wreak the likes of Whyte and Joshua and many more. What a breath if fresh air this wonderful man and story is

I thought you were going to show some true introspection for a moment but you just couldn't help a "but AJ" for damage control, could you? Stop worshipping other men. Fury is/was a good boxer but, other than that, what else does he have to offer you? He's a fat slob and a bit of a weirdo.

You're trying too hard with this "helmet" talk and seem emotional. After you've meditated, slept and meditated again you should have a go at rationally explaining your position. Until then I'll assume your blood's up because a boxer you're emotionally attached to had a challenging night. Sleep well.
