Comments Thread For: Khabib Believes Fury is a Step Too Far For Ngannou: Fury is The Best Right Now

[Juan-Rambo]

Interesting observation by Khabib!!

[crimsonfalcon07]

Khabib being known for his vaunted expertise in boxing, his opinion is certainly definitive... Not like the guy is saying what everyone else is or anything...

Honestly, I think if that bum Wilder can KO Fury 4 times......Ngannou can finish this, I'm wondering of the odds. I know Fury is going to fight sht scared of the big Nigergin bombs. Remember, FG is the hardest puncher EVER. You think Cunningham hits hard ? Wilder? Well we'll see once Francis lands and see how well Fury takes it.

Problem is Wilder didn't knock out Fury once so not sure what you smoking unless you meant knock down in which case is irrelevant considering Fury got up every time. Wilder has been boxing most of his life Francis has never stepped in a boxing ring in his life i think you are delusional.

Its not as simple as that. Some of these MMA strikers throw shots in unorthodox/unconventional ways. Fury is used to evading shots from BOXERS not hulking street fighters. Just look at McGregor's early success against Floyd. There is every chance Fury gets caught by something significant that he wouldn't have anticipated coming his way.

what remains to be seen is if Ngannou can still generate the same power wearing 10 oz gloves as he does earing 4 oz ones.

What like Wilder is orthodox/conventional or something? Wilder actually knows how to generate power properly which is more than can be said for Francis. you make the comparison like Mcgregor knocked down or hurt Mayweather he didn't do **** and he got carried for most the fight Mayweather could of ended that much sooner.

I don't think people realize the skill difference between MMA "boxing" and actual boxing i guess that's how these exhibitions still generate money from those people but i would be highly shocked if he knocked down Fury or hurt him at all.

Wilder has been boxing most of his life

No he hasn't. Wilder didn't start boxing until 20... you trying to say that Wilder is some paragon of boxing skill? Because if so, you're the delusional one.

That's 17 years how long has Francis been boxing? dude has never even been in a boxing ring what you talking about dude. I'm saying he's a lot more skilled than Francis and it took Wilder 12 rounds to finally catch Fury this exhibition is only 10 rounds but a less skilled MMA guy is gonna catch him quicker? yeah okay.

Ali fought inoki this is an entertainment match. Fury is the best HW out even khabib knows this.

Francis has that same natural power like George Forman had. wilder relies on leverage to get the power but he telegraphs the right hand a lot because he either throws a jab then the straight or uses the jab hand as a range finder followed by the straight. Fury can always see that right hand coming because wilder always needs to throw the jab prior to it. Francis will be throwing shots in ways which Fury is not familiar with.

Mcgregor did have early success in terms of landed shots (heavy or not) in rounds 1-3. His problem was he wasn't able to generate any snap on his shots wearing boxing gloves
