And that should have been the fight to make. Both big names in their respected sport which is not boxing. They meet in the middle by going to boxing. Ngannou showed he can go 10 rounds with a better boxer than Rico is and Rico has zero KO power to hurt Ngannou yet Rico is expected to be the better boxer. This fight makes all the sense and if you wanna ****e it up make them box in 6OZ gloves or let them have a Striking match with all weapons allowed in MMA Gloves but no ground game allowed.
Put this fight as CO Main event and make Usyk fight a top 10 ranked guy according to the ranking from the Ring. It's not that hard but Turki is completely out of his depth he understands nothing about the fighting game and if you throw away money at least make some fights that make sense.
Tbf that probably should have been the fight that happened. Both Simalier experience in acutal boxing even tho Rico is a lot more accomplished in terms of kickboxing Francis still so dangerous because of the power he has so that’s a more interesting fight than Rico against Usyk who usyk should just break down and probably stop in 6-7 rounds.
