My predictions;
Both will be incredibly prepared
We should expect thunder
We should expect Francis to win every clinch
Joshua can't totally prepare for a guy that has some skills, strong like ox, and is not a boxer
Fury will look really ****** if Joshua smashes Francis
All people posting that say what will happen actually have no freaking idea what will happen. This is surprise territory.

The only danger is an out of shape, out of sorts Fury has given Ngannou a false sense of security... Joshua has solid boxing fundamentals, and hits harder than Fury...

I'm gonna predict Joshua inside 7, if he can let his hands go, with maybe a couple of hairy moments if Ngannou decides to get rough and ready...

If course that’s what Hearn expects. If he thought otherwise he wouldn’t be making the fights. We all know he’s not trying to put AJ in any significant danger unless the payout is enough to fully cash out on Ajs career. AJ obviously has the the experience edge while Ngannou will have the edge in will as AJ folds when faced with adversity since Ruiz.

I've heard that some where before , ....Journeyman Franklin , he said the same!

Fury has legitimised Ngannou as an opponent. Nobody can seriously argue Ngannou doesn't deserve another big fight after his last performance.

I bet a bunch of the people criticising also had Ngannou beating Fury too.

Up close will be where Francis can have an impact. He's not going to be outmuscled by anyone.

Anywhere else Joshua will be levels above.

Referee selection will be important
