    Part of Fury's success is def due to (as a very tall and heavy fighter) leaning on the inside. Francis wasn't having it at all and worked Fury on the inside when he tried it. And even Francis' punches that sort of looked like glancing blows or off target obviously were felt by Fury. I was also impressed with Francis' upwards left jab, almost an uppercut, that I assume he practiced in training as a strategic weapon specifically for taller Fury.
    No...that's one of his signature punches...he's KO'd people with it.

      Can you imagine if Ngannou became a pro boxer 15-20 years ago instead of at past prime 37 years old? He'd be a Hall of Fame Boxer.

        Ok, well I'm a boxing fan, and don't watch mma. Nonetheless, it sure looked tailored for Fury and kept him wary.

          Yeah...it was. I actually saw a comment by someone months before the fight saying it would. For a fight that was being dismissed as a going to be one-sided schooling, it turned out to be a pretty damn entertaining matchup.

No, you making as a s s of yourself does not make me feel better, just want you to wise up a bit and stop going after people with a different opinion. There is no reason to think someone is a casual for the opinion Francis won this fight... You may disagree, that is your perrogative.
            If my iq’s low, then you must be on the spectrum. “Pure” bloodlines I suppose? I just counter acted your statement, and you imploded. Good try though, but then again with being slow I guess. Remember, you’re a good boy, a real good boy. Positive reinforcement.

              He didn’t look good in general and yeah he got stopped with a borderline body shot, one that everybody thought was legal including many trainers, boxers & the entire TR commentary team. If you think he’s anything like Ngannou and he has his size and power.. well wait and see lol.

                True.. but Dubois isn’t a guy known for a great chin. He got dropped 3 times in his previous fight before Uysk. Uysk couldn’t put a dent in Chisora and look what Fury did

                      If Uysk wins I’ll delete my profile and if Fury wins, you delete yours. Deal?
