    You really showed everyone your expertise in boxing with that take. That was brilliant.
    Lol....you've got a great memory there champ. I lost big time on that.
    I lost on George Foreman, Duane Bobick, Ricky Hatton and Gerry Cooney even worse!
    But you MUST support you candidate!! You Must.

      Because he's got faster hands and longer arms.

          Not that anyone should watch it. Probably the MMA fans are more interested in this fight. But there is nothing wrong with watching it, you just don't expect anything that good. Who knows - maybe Ngannou will turn out to be a decent boxer or maybe he will land a knockout punch.

          I understand the people who don't want to watch it and are disappointed. There is no right or wrong if you want or don't want to watch it.

            Jones has the same reach as Fury at 6'4

              I know. I'm just busting balls with all this.

              Sometimes seems as if:
              When a topic is serious, posters get silly.
              When a topic turns silly, posters get serious.

              Lol

                Fury has longer fingers. Jones couldn't poke the skin of a rice pudding.

                  I mean, Jones's career is essentially built off of getting away with illegally eye poking people, mixed with a healthy dose of stomping their knee caps in. And as much of a **** POS as Fury is, Jones is absolutely sociopathic. I dont think Fury wants to be messing with Jones anywhere outside of a boxing ring.

                    If he had a Jab like Fury I'll bet he'd be due a whopping pay raise too. Like Ngannou is getting.

                      His boxing is the worst part of his game.

                      From all accounts hes pretty well paid anyway. And Ngannou is in cash out mode.
