    Worse cherrypicking, Ngannou or Helenius?

    That question for dummy AJ fans.

    Fury fighting arguably second hardest hitter in human history (behind Wilder) and one of the greatest MMA fighters ever in HW division.

    AJ fought a domestic gatekeeper while the gatekeeper hadn't even a week to prep.

    And, at least Fury fighting for PPV and money unlike Joshua who fought at "DAZN free".

    Which is worse?

    Ngannou

    Helenius
    20.69%

    One of them fought a ranked Boxer on short notice. The other has planned for ages to fight a non Boxer. Spin that how ever you like but I've said the truth.

      Helenius should fight Francis to see who wins. If Francis wins, then of course helenius is worse cherrypick

            Helenius is a cherry pick. Francis is just a small snack.

              I don’t mind boxing matches against an elite mma fighter

              Floyd McGregor was one helluva an event

                  I dont know if Ngannou is actually that much less of a threat than an old Helenius (who actually got gifted a hometown decision against MMA fighter Kharitanov in the ammys) but the difference is (and surely OP you are being disingenuous here) 1) Helenius was a last minute replacement and 2) AJ has multiple losses and no belts. Obviously if Fury is supposed to be the no1 HW in the world he needs to be held to a higher standard than a guy in the rebuilding stages.

                    Bobby coming off a Wilder KO and taking a fight with no notice, is a ballsy bastard, but Joshua fighting him just shows Joshua's apatite for low hanging fruit.
