We’ve known the HW division is f’d ever since the Klitchkos clutched their way through a decade of championships.
I love these Nigerian fighters. So proud so humble. Shame they robbed him. Still proved it wasn't a mismatch.
‘Ngannou was a better boxer than we all thought he’d ever be’ - Fury. Not the time to be condescending..
Was following on the radio, they had it close but seems like Ngannou could well have got it. Fucking hell that is embarrassing, Fury needs to shut the hell up and fuck off. Used to be a big fan but I've been sick of him for a while now. Loudmouth embarrassment.
More cringe here. Trying to get a bloke who speaks almost no English in public to engage in some rehearsed smacktalk. Fuck off. MTF
I don't think he really trained at all, thought it would be a walk in the park. He looked like the novice in there, uncoordinated, lunging in and staggering about looking like a melted vanilla sundae. He was completely gassed the last two rounds as well. To be honest, I don't think he'll look anything like this bad against Usyk. If basically losing to a boxing debutante, doesn't light a fire under his fat ass, nothing will.
This is a disaster for boxing. It is a disaster for heavyweight boxing. It is a disaster for British boxing. It's a disaster for everything that took 100 years and more to piece together in this sport. It's a disaster for Usyk....it's just a fucking mess.
Fury was relying on his jiggling breasts and wobbling gunt to befuddle Ngannou, but the Nigerians are made of sterner stuff than that.
Let's say he bashes Usyk, which a man his size should do to a former Cruiserweight. You know what happens? Usyks brilliant career gets panned because he "lost to a guy who lost to A cage fighter". Like I said, a fucking disaster .
Two really interesting things which made a big difference in there. Furry struggled a lot with someone who could beat him to the punch. That bodes well for Usyk, who has very fast hands. He also got pushed around a lot on the inside. Ngannou was clearly stronger than Furry and Furry wasn't sure at all what to do, inside or outside of range. MTF
For what it is worth, I think the cage fighter here is also a good boxer. He showed genuine skill in there. But aye, otherwise agreed. MTF
I'll hazard a bet that Ngannou was on something. Nothing against the fella but UFC is all roids. Ask Nate Diaz.
