Please no More MMA fighters hit/kick harder than boxers.

Just I seemed to get a lot of disagreeing at that time, somebody said Francis wont be slept because he took everything in the cage and was never hurt, today's right hand could not be a better example of reality. All good, I really like MMA as well its just different, I think AJ will do the same to Fury if they fight, for me I was never high on Fury. Yep, different sports. I think its about time this crossover shit just came to an end. That KO was sobering enough that it should really send a message that its fucked up to be allowing these fights to happen. Notice nobody is even really gloating or doing any boxing vs MMA shit talk because everyone is more like "oh shit did he die?" If you're a fan of both sports its sad to see a guy you know is a beast being made to look like a complete bum in front of millions of people.

I dont disagree with you on any of that. Its common sense.

When we spoke I tried to explain how a boxers punch is different, its like a high powered bullet and puts the lights out, as Francis said he didn't feel a thing, precision punching is what boxers train to do, MMA guys stand differently and generally don't generate that sort of power I dont disagree with you on any of that. Its common sense.

Obviously hes never been punched as hard in the UFC as AJ punched him, that would probably ring true for most of AJs opponents in boxing as well though. Hes a big puncher in the sport of punching. I do still think Ngannou has (well...it maybe more "had" now) a good chin, but basically zero defence against what AJ was throwing. Its not like he ate that many big shots in MMA, Stipe cracked him pretty good but Stipe definitely does not hit like AJ. Other than that most of his fights were over very quickly.

Fury is not near the puncher AJ is, and AJ is at his peak right now. Fury didn't train for Francis, whereas AJ was all business.

Yet you people were rooting for the MMA guy to win. Let's be consistent next time.

I said then Tyson is a very poor yardstick, which showed to be true, the point here is Francis was granite in the cage and glass when chin checked by a puncher that hit the button.

he was 40 Is that the excuse now lol.

One boxer ****ed him up, another boxer couldnt put a dent in him over 10 rounds. It isnt an all or nothing thing. I said then Tyson is a very poor yardstick, which showed to be true, the point here is Francis was granite in the cage and glass when chin checked by a puncher that hit the button.
