Well, Fury sure looks like he's aging before our eyes. But give credit to Ngannou, who I think could give a stern test to any of the heavyweights. He is an exceptional athlete who is very disciplined and smart. This wasn't a paycheck for him. A heart of a champion. But not so fast. Even though Fury is slowing down, Usyk is no Ngannou. A much smaller man who will have way more problems with Fury's size and style. 6' 9" versus 6' 3" and a 7" reach advantage for Fury. Usyk will have to get inside to even hit Fury and that will expose him big time. Even though Ngannou is only an inch taller than Usyk (6' 4" versus 6' 3") he has a an 83" reach - - versus 78" for Usyk and 85" for Fury.

In an odd way, that lousy performance might help Fury.

Fury always performs best as an underdog, and maybe he's now got the kick up the a*** that he needed. You can't play boxing, you have be fully prepared all the time.
