Comments Thread For: Ngannou: Those Judges Who Scored Fight For Fury Should Be Sanctioned!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Former UFC champion Francis Ngannou is fuming after suffering a close ten round split decision loss to WBC king Tyson Fury. Their fight, which took place on Saturday night in Saudi Arabia, saw two judges issued tallies of 95-94 and 96-93 for Fury, while a third had it 95-94 for Ngannou.

These type of fights happen all the time, where one fighter wins more rounds than the other but the one who wins less rounds wins them more impressively & does more damage (& sometimes scores a knockdown).

Examples include, Khan vs Maidana & Taylor vs Persoon I.

Yes, Ngannou was a pro boxing debutant, yes he knocked the champ down & yes, Fury looked more beat up after the fight.

I describe these situations as; Ngannou won the fight, Fury won the boxing match & it is what it is *shrug*.

Not really.

Was close but the fight could obviously be scored for Fury.

No robbery, Fury won the fight fair and square, despite the terrible performance.

Ngannou himself said he fell short , it could have gone either way , it certainly wasn't a robbery as some claim . I had Ngannou by one round but I see the case for a Fury win as he landed many more scoring punches but Ngannou's punches were harder and had more effect....take your pick. Great performance by the African kid.

I only saw the highlights, but from the sound of The Board, it was reminisce of Haney-Loma. Very close fight; could have gone either way. But the champion always gets the benefit of the doubt. If only Francis knocked him down once more, there wouldn't be a debate..

Welcome to boxing business.

Fury landed more total punches but Ngannou landed more power shots. Ngannou was more effective with his punches. Fury vs Ngannou could have gone either way or even a draw.

If you only saw highlights, you should shut the F up you don’t have a valid opinion if you only saw highlights, I watch the fight twice and clearly scored it for Francis
