Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Shockingly Dropped in Third, Overcomes Tough Moments To Barely Edge Francis Ngannou

[Boricua181]

Fury came out the worst for wear, with two swollen eyes, cut on his forehead, being knocked down, and seriously stunned.
From most accounts on social media Fury was lucky to get away with a split decision win.
Ngannou really showed up to win, shocking both Fury and his corner, as they couldn't believe how good of a fighter Ngannou turned out to be.
Fury should forget about all of the shenanigan's (theatrics), lose about 20 pounds of fat, and seriously concentrate on his boxing career.
Ngannou will be back in the squared circle, as he left a good impression with the fans, he should return as soon as possible, hopefully on the Fury vs Usyk, under card.
Can Ngannou ever win a version of the heavyweight championship title, some of the boxing pundits, and fans think that he already did this past Saturday.

Ay yo where's that dude on here that has Tyson Fury as his profile picture?

What an embarassment to the sport.
I thought Fury could go no lower when he fought Chisora for the third time but here he is proving us wrong!

The Fury's are a cancer to the sport and I can not wait till the day they are no longer fighting!
As for Tyson, I doubt he mentally recovers from this.
You could see his ego was hurt last night and he doesn't know how to deal with it!

Oh well. Good riddance!

Wow! These judges must have been paid well. No doubt now as to whether boxing is fixed. Tyson Fury didn’t win this fight and he knows it. What a joke

Damn just realized Ngannu is 37 dude is old too lol

Power is the last thing that goes!

This fight (Imo) was not on the up & up. Fury intentionally carried Ngannou and did his best to just do enough to arguably win. Either sets up a lucrative rematch or it changes the odds to Usyk's favor in the coming fight.

IMO You don't throw an elbow at an opponent you're attempting to carry.

Fury got exposed. We all remember Wallin (ranked outside the top-20 at the time) giving him a hard fight. Even Wilder who Fury made his name off hasn't beaten a top-10 guy in 5 years. Anyone can look good when they avoid everyone. Fury has had three title defenses his whole career....and he is almost retired

[Elastic Recoilz]

i thought wilder was the hardest puncher in boxing history...now its ngannau?

Could well be. I think Francis has that natural heavy handed power where every shot has a great deal of force behind it - similar to George Foreman but obviously a lot more substantial due to the fact that the energy is originating from Francis' huge tree trunk legs, with wilder his power seems to be more from being athletic and rangy. Both are concussive but Francis shots appear to be damaging as well.

Francis Ngannou is the African Rocky!

The plot was straight out of the first Rocky: Underdog takes on the heavyweight champ, gives him the fight of his life, and then gets robbed in a split decision.

Wilder had 41 ko in 42 victories. Ngannau didnt ko Fury. Easy question to answer at least for now

In MMA, Ngannou got 12 KOs out of 17 wins, despite KOs being harder to pull off in MMA. If he had pursued boxing instead of MMA, he may have had a similar KO record to Wilder.

Either way, I'm going with prime George Foreman as the hardest puncher in boxing history. In his prime, he KO'd almost every single boxer he fought up until the Ali fight. And even as an old man in his 40s, Old George was still knocking out younger fighters.
