Comments Thread For: Joe Joyce's Manager Warns Whyte: Ngannou Can Box at a High Level!

[TMLT87]

Whyte or anyone else in the top 40 is gonna break him down and beat him up.

Dunno about that, guys like Schwarz, Gorman and Junior Fa are listed in the top 40 on Boxrec.

Id say nganou has more boxing ability than wilder any day of the week his flaws are getting taken down

Id pick hin to ko wilder and joshua they couldnt take his bombs

Francis is too wild he throws his punches from the floor or from the hip and leaves himself wide open. Any top level boxer is going to counter the **** out of him he has tremendous power without a doubt and if he landed clean on a boxer he could hurt them for sure but i don't see that happening not in a ring in the octagon it would be interesting he has decent knees and kicks he works with Dewey Cooper so him vs Whyte or Jarrell Miller in a hybrid boxing/mma fight would be dope lol.

We no Francis is not doing nothing in a fight with a real boxer in between the ropes. He can lung and “swing from the boots” all he wants. Whyte or anyone else in the top 40 is gonna break him down and beat him up. MMA doesn’t translate to boxing yet.

Hmm you might be right history has shown that the best boxers in mma usually beat c level boxers at best and struggle to beat b level and dominated by A level in boxing. Not many mma fighters have made the transition to be fair so not enough info to judge too much but i will disagree that mma doesnt translate well to boxing, the guys with great hands in mma are regional champion good and world champion mediocre. Nganou has horrible hands though so i agree he would get beat up

Nganou if you look at his highlights can hurt you with 4 inch left hooks,wild as he may be he is accurate as hell and only needs to land one punch from any angle,if he started boxing i wouldnt be suprised if he managed a wilder type record and got to the top he has far more tools

Lets not forget that when nganou goes to throw punches theyre from far further back than he would have to be in boxing what with kicking to consider

If you put wilder ina cage with the fighters nganou fought and made the rules kicks and punches only,i doubt wilder would be able to land a right hand from kicking distance

[Stuntman Mike]

I feel if wilder can go all the way in boxing ,i really think nganou chose the wrong sport,bomb squad would be renamed nuclear bomb squad

[BobLoblaw]

I always tend to take the boxer's side in these cross-sport fights. However i'd love to see Ngannou **** Whyte out.

Ngannou is Wilder with even worse form
