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.

Yeah looks like he didn’t take him seriously , it’s a poor display from Tyson

The scorecards will be interesting, looks like a draw at best for fury

Are you saying boxing is corrupt ?

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.

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.
-
@African-Monkey Parker is top 10 in the world still, he wants a title shot or big $$ fight again before he takes the gate keeper role.
He may be fighting C/D level fighters but at least he is active- look at Ruiz calling out the Wilders- Fury and AJ's wanting a huge slice but not getting anything. Waste.
JP needs to keep ticking over and choose opponents smartly and before you know after Fury/Uysk or if Fury pulls the pin (never know) belts become available to highest ranked in the organisation.
Hygovic v JP foe IBF title in 12-18mths not beyond the realms
