Early on in the fight, the first thing he'll learn/realise is that Fury is not a real puncher. Ngannou gets stopped in this one, I'll say inside 4.

Since the Ruiz Jr fight Joshua fights scared and Ngannou will take the fight to him. Joshua looked good against Wallin because he fought on the back foot as soon as Ngannou comes forward throwing punches Joshua will retreat and Francis in my opinion wins.

I'd say Joshua has a harder punch and a weaker chin than Fury .So it should be a different contest , I think Joshua will be made to box by Ben and stay away , looking to hurt him more in the later rounds. If Joshua gets clipped as Fury did , don't expect him to survive.

Im sure he knows that already. It was his first boxing match, not his first fight.

I think ppl are under the illusion Ngannou has never boxed til the Fury fight was made or something. Ngannou has been sparring guys in boxing for like a decade & a half. Now obviously boxing competitive is a whole other thing than sparring, but he is more acquainted with boxing than a lot of ppl seem to think.

This was partly discussed as part of a Frank and Eddie face to face.

Ngannou was simply outstanding is his debut boxing fight against the undefeated world champ and like most people I had him winning the fight by 2-3 rounds. Anyhow, it'll be interesting to see how he fairs against Joshua and whether he's the REAL DEAL or just had a Buster Douglas moment.

I agree with most of what you say the only thing I will add if it's a Buster Douglas moment so be it but Joshua ain't no Holyfield.

True....Ngannou said something interesting the other day...when asked about Joshua's beatdown of Wallin, he said that Joshua looked better than normal because he was fighting somebody who didn't give him anything to worry about (ditto for Helenius). However, Francis isn't just going to be a sitting duck and will be all up in his face just like the Fury fight. He also said that when he dropped Fury he DIDN'T hit him with full power as it was just a glancing shot which is an extremely scary thought.

He's learnt that even top level boxers can get befuddled by switch hitters and can get hurt by his off balance counters from weird angles.

AJ is gonna get hurt by the same punch Fury didnt see coming and i don't think Ngannou will hold back on windmilling him when Joshua gets that look.

Fury always gives good face. He doesn't have a tell when he's hurt. Ngannou was wary of getting clipped by Fury cos he didn't know if he was actually hurt or rope a doping.

When Ruiz hurt and dropped AJ then windmilled him into quitting in the corner Joshua couldn't believe it was happening. Just like he couldn't believe that if he went 12 rounds with Usyk in the rematch that he wouldn't simply get gifted the belts again.

That look of Joshua's first evident against Parker all those years ago is telling. It screams 'Help me ref.'
