Comments Thread For: Teddy Atlas Gives Ngannou Chance for Upset Against Fury: 'It Could Be Lights Out For Fury'

[Roberto Vasquez]

This makes no sense. How can someone in their first boxing fight beat a world boxing champion??? I doubt Ngannou will even have much power in boxing. We all saw McGregor land on Mayweather a ton of times and do zero damage...

Pretty sure Teddy just likes to be a contrarian.

teddy can have pretty good views at times and others i would not agree with, but hes been in the ring with this guy and gives him a punchers chance, kinda what a lot of people are doing but he seems a bit more optimistic ngannou can cause issues and even win, i highly doubt it myself but we shall see if teddy is right or way off the mark

I will say, I think boxing fans do sometimes underestimate the quality of the hands of MMA guys. Ngannou might have a bit better chance than some people think. Plus, Vegas often seems to know something we don’t, and Ngannou at 8:1 isn’t crazy, a lot of live underdogs will get those kinds of odds.

Teddy, Teddy, Teddy, what magic mushrooms have you been eating?

Sure Francis has a chance, a punchers chance. Fury has been dropped many times so his chin is suspect; we all know it.
Problem for Franny is to actually land a punch that can be seen from Mecca and takes about as long to travel that distance.

I am actually not sure if "chin" has to do with being knocked down or knocked out. If down, he has a regular chin. If out, he has a superstar chin. The neuro-muscular response to that type of impact is such that some may fall, but not getting up is a very different thing.

I think Teddy just likes to say ****** stuff for attention and to stir the pot.

It's very possible, Fury looks like he's been hitting the corn beef and cabbage pretty hard. Eventually as you get older being out of shape will catch up.
