Comments Thread For: Frank Warren: Fury-Ngannou Has Probably Become One of The Most Talked About Fights in History

[richardt]

It's being talked about because Fury got his ass beat by a guy making his pro debut. Hats off to Ngannou though, no one thought he could beat Fury, let alone outbox him, knock him down, beat him up and make him look like a B-level guy for most of the fight.
Greatest Professional Boxing Debut of All Time.

Exactly! Fury turned himself and the Boxing community into the laughing stock of the ages with his cherry pick gone wrong. Now the UFC has a false sense of confidence that they can complete with boxing champions in the ring which they should already know is not true but they will still smirk. The rarest exception does not make a rule. The only thing that was accomplished was how Fury dragged Boxing into his clown show making a mockery of a sport that is dear to some of us.

Fury's redemption path should be to fight Usyk for all the belts next. If he wins, fight Ngannou then retirement.

Yes, and all the talk is damaging the image and marketabilityof boxing. BTW, looking at the photo of them the same distance from the camera: how is the Gypsy Knave 5 in taller than Ngannou, or is Francis actually 6 ft 7?

Yes, but for all the wrong reasons.

Beat me to it, and the first post in the thread. Great job.

It's a huge success whether you want to deny it or not.

Not from the buys it isn't.

he has got a huge undisputed fight against Usyk to look forward to, which is happening, with an official press conference scheduled for very soon.

How can something be 'scheduled' for 'very soon'?

When you schedule something you put it on a date. That's literally what the word means.

N'gannou didn't outbox sht, he hit flies for most of the fight. His performance is being clearly overrated.

He landed the best blows but got his ears boxed off most of the fight.

Reads like paid propaganda.

Lol. I watched WWE Crown ***el Saturday morning. 6 hour propaganda-thon. If there's one thing that makes white Westerners get on their knees and start fellating ****** c**ck, it's their oil money.

I have zero desire to ever go to Saudi Arabia , aside from the human rights stuff , it seems like it would be boring as hell. No women , no alcohol ,even though I don't drink , no drugs, what can you do there other than ride a camel which is not fun anyway. They can keep that ****ho!e. I hate religion too and they're nuts about that dumb ****.

Ngannou outboxed him. Think about it. The most significant exchange in that fight was the knockdown and how did it happen? Fury threw a one-two combo, Ngannou slipped to his left, did a catch and shot and landed a thunderous left hook counter. That was the best boxing move in the entire fight and it's Ngannou who pulled it off. That's outboxing. Then in round 8, again we have the second best sequences in the fight where Ngannou unleashed a barrage of combos on Fury. That was the second best example of boxing in the fight.

Compare that to Fury running around the ring throwing feints and pitty pat "stay away from me" jabs and having not one single moment where he even stunned Ngannou with a punch. Fury was outboxed. Ngannou looked like the Pro Boxer and Fury looked like the inexperienced mma guy for most of that fight.
