That AJ ko was the heaviest punch I’ve seen for a very very long time

Said it 1000 times before. AJ folds Fury, especially this version.

Said it 1000 times before. AJ folds Fury, especially this version. I think people have gotten very excited over these gimmick fights. The last time we saw AJ against real opposition, Usyk made him look bang average. Twice. Think we really need to see how Fury gets on against that opposition now. That’ll give us a real indication of what he’s got left. What we know about Fury traditionally is that he tends to fight to the ability of his opponent. He had a couple of really uninspired performances prior to turning up and shocking the world against Wilder the first time. He then went away and really struggled against Wallin before coming back and putting on one of, if not the, best Brits abroad performances ever in boxing against Wilder the second time. What I do like is that it makes Fury vs Joshua a big prospective fight again. It looked dead in the water while Joshua was on his way down and Fury was top of the shop.

Also on Ngannou, I think there’s been a lot said and written by people who have never seen him fight.
You never know what you’re going to get with him. He’s capable of flattening Stipe Miocic, but he’s also put on some of the worst heavyweight fights in history, throwing three punches in 15mins. He’s not a prodigy. He’s almost the Wilder of MMA in some respects. Big knockout power, very little technique to speak of.
He’ll go and spark out Parker or someone with one punch next, then lose on points to Dubois.
For real though, I hope he’s ok, because that was a fuck of a punch he took and there wasn’t much in the way of him protecting himself. Shades of his KO of Stipe.

I like Ngannou, he's a dangerous fighter but he should have had a few fights before going into this one. He deservedly beat Fury but tonight was a different level altogether. I've always rated AJ over Fury so this fight has no real impact on that. For me if it ever happens I hope he knocks Fury out. Not overly keen on either but Fury is just a massive, insufferable dickhead. The only one worthy of beating him to that title is his old man.

Not overly keen on either but Fury is just a massive, insufferable dickhead. The only one worthy of beating him to that title is his old man. Ngannou’s in his late 30’s, talked about being broke after his last UFC fight and owed Usman £200k. His motivation is purely money and to be fair to him he’s probably made the thick end of £50m quid from these two fights. When you’ve been offered that sort of payday, a couple of tune-up fights which may only serve to expose you probably don’t sound that appealing. The talk of him being a contender in this heavyweight division after fighting a half-arsed Tyson Fury was daft. He’s done well against Fury and ridden the wave. Think when he recovers a bit and gets some clarity, he won’t regret too much. Hopefully he’s learnt to manage his money better.

Tyson looks like a man in form , he is definitely in shape for this fight. Ngannou knocked some sense into him it seems.
There's a knockout in this fight, it's in the air...

Fury is such a cunt. Only won because of the war lol Think there’s something to be said for not handing a fighter who has just been rocked to his boots a live microphone immediately after a fight. Really good fight that. I thought it could’ve been boring, but never played out like that. Fury completely in control until the 9th and then the most dramatic swing. High level of boxing on show from both of them. Enjoyable.

With the fights in the states, as I got older, I started going to bed early and then setting my alarm to get up. At first I thought the Saudi events suited me better, but after the last few I think I prefer having a kip and getting up at 4am (or a bit earlier on the rare occasion there’s something on the undercard I would’ve been arsed about). That event yesterday was going on for 7hrs before there was even a whiff of the main event maybe happening. 7hrs of David Haye being bang on the gak. For anyone who doesn’t have it, the Ringwalks app is a must for any big boxing event. You set a notification for the fights you’re interested in and it’ll ping you when the fighters are on their way to the ring. I believe they have MMA on it now as well, but I never watch that live.

actually the result yesterday had be rather shocked. Actually rate Fury highly and thought he would win. He seemed to get cocky in there and Usyk took over. As far as I am concerned fury got Ko'd, Ref robbed Usyk yesterday and boxing needs to cut out these things fast.
Welldone Usyk, can't see point of rematch because I believe the win would be more convincing. Fury best resting and then taking on AJ
