Anthony Joshua vs Francis Ngannou - DAZN - Fight By Fight Thread

[Raz786]

Shall see, no one was expecting Ruiz to upset AJ and Ngannou almost shocked the world in his first professional boxing bout with Fury.

Anything could happen.

you got your answer

[Loque-san]

There was actually people who believed Ngannou was not only a top 10 heavyweight but top 4 behind Usyk, Fury and Joshua. Amazing.

Fury the giant bufoon treated this like an exhibition fight and got dropped and embarrassed. Joshua got the job done like a true pro.

When Joshua has confidence, he throws with his hip. Or perhaps he has confidence when he sees the effects of punches thrown from the hip. Either way, credit to AJ and BD. That was frightening. Usyk beats Fury, retires and wins the UK's Strictly Come Dancing at Xmas ('cause he ain't going to fancy AJ again). Fury gets cleaned out by AJ.

Joshua has always looked better against bigger guys, don't want to read too much into this, but partnered with the last couple performances, it does feel like Joshua is peaking right now. Looking forward to seeing what happens after Fury/Usyk. Think Joyce and Wilder would have suffered the same fate as Ngannou tonight against this version of Joshua

Yup. Joshua knocks out Wilder and Joyce just like this.

Fury at least looks like he knows he's got to take things seriously vs Usyk. Looks in better shape too. He's going to be absolutely ruined if Usyk destroys him though IMO.

Boxing is learning process Francis just found out ....

[TheOneAboveAll]

That's it guys Boxing will always be superior to MMA

In boxing

That last punch is exactly why you should have to progress to this level.

That was just dangerous.

There was nothing Ngannou could do to avoid the punch either. Still stunned from the knockdown, too slow to get out the way...and Joshua is throwing his right with full confidence. As Ade said, one of the hardest right hands he ever saw live.

[Butt stuff]

Crazy when Ngannou was completely out on his feet, Joshua just strolled over and detonated the biggest ****ing nuke I’ve ever seen in the ring.

It was so casual. Genuinely thought he could’ve been dead.

Usyk doesn't destroy anybody bro. winning clean UD's isn't destroying lol
