    Fury dropped in round 2 by ngannou,

    But starting to take control in the middle rounds , overall a sloppy display by Tyson considering the level of his opponent

    According to the stream I’m watching Ngannou is winning and Fury needs to step it up ?

    What a kick in the arse it’ll be for boxing if Ngannou does it ? Wow.

    Fuck, interested in reading more about this one.

    I mean, I’m a Fury fan but this stream made it sound like he’d fucked it completely.

    Ngannou has improved his cardio. I was expecting him to gas after a few rounds. He was fighting heavier than his MMA weight too

    Really poor from Fury

    Go Usyk

    My word……imagine of they had a rematch in a cage ?

    I might have to slightly rethink my opinion on Fury’s place in history after this.

    I watch a lot of boxing ,

    What is disturbing is how everyone’s accepts the fighter who generates less money has to be over the top convincing to get the decision, if it’s remotely close the cash cow gets the benefit of the doubt

    If fury is this sloppy against usyk he is in trouble,

    Usyk throws a high volume of accurate punches , and is very slick with his footwork moving in and out of range using a variety of angles

    Prob a good wakeup call from Fury. Infuriatingly clever and stupid, depending on which day he wakes up, I suspect history will have trouble judging his relative greatness.

    Excellent post.

    He’s huge, awkward, skilful and tough ( that shit song by Chumbawumba springs to mind )

    ….but he’s also sometimes lazy, out of condition and the argument can be made his resume doesn’t compare to greats of the past ( still I guess he can’t help who they put in front of him ) He also seems to lack power for his size.

    Really tough to see where his legacy ends up.

    Have I missed posts on Parker actually winning a fight? Admittedly it was against a um not greatly experienced or heralded fighter but Parker did look good and he did show power. I worry he changed coaches way too late in his career.

    he has looked ordinary before , and quite often against opponents he is supposed to beat easily,

    Otto Wallen fight comes to mind , he was cut so bad he was fortunate it wasnt stopped ,

    The usyk fight is massive for both fighters , the winner goes down as a great

    @nostrildamus Kean has an awful chin in fairness. He was found out against Dillon Carman earlier in his pro career.

    Parker's career is in denial these days. He's a gatekeeper, but seems to not want to admit to it, hence why he has fought C/D level opponents this year.
