The Boxing Thread

Ngannous such a beast he just killed the entire sport of boxing.

 

Pishing myself reading this thread. I used to watch boxing years ago till I sussed it was a sham. Yet here everyone is still shocked

 

The wallin fight where he got large cut only other one I can think of really

He totally underestimated ngannou though t he could do what he done to wilder lean on him and wear him out difference was wilder had sparrow legs whilst nagannou had large oaks cooed with everything fury tried

A guy if fury height and weight 73 per cent ko just shows he’s a points kind of fighter his dad has only knocked out 1 person and his brother in last five fights against YouTube bums has only won on points

And on that basis I think he might just edge up sky as a technical fight would suit him

I * me off every time I watch it yet I crawl back.

Never paying to watch it mind you.

 

Decisions like that happening and they have the cheek to moan about people not paying for the pay per view …. No * wonder and result like that tonight will just encourage more people to not pay for the next fight and watch illegally as it’s fixed to point

Meant to word it as his brother aswell in that embarrassing YouTube fight

 

Rob them blind mate, * right.

 

The Saudi fix , criminal, as much as I love the guy he lost that

 

* fell asleep and missed it.

Was it Taylor Caterall levles of robbery?

 

Not for me. I felt like it was pretty close the whole way through but thought Francis clearly won in the end by at least a point or 2. The 96-93 score to fury was a farce

 

Was never going to be allowedda points loss in Saudi Arabia with tmem planning a ‘super event’ with him and Ysyk at the forefront.

Tell you ehst though. Ngannou needs to continue boxing, he was a major surprise. He has boxing IQ, and thats been rare with guys who have tried to move to different fighting sports.

 

Boxing is too easy to rig. If your no popular your not winning without a knockout.

 

John McDermott.

Wallin - any other fighter gets stopped with that cut. It's only because Wilder fight was in pipeline it was allowed to continue.

 

For years they've talked about the home advantage. Saudi essentially was a home advantage as Fury has a big match coming up there and him losing devalues that match massively.

 

I can’t speak about the McDermott fight, never saw it. But it’s certainly a stretch to say Wallin was robbed. I agree it would’ve been stopped by a lot of referees. It wasn’t though and Fury did plenty to win the fight on the scorecards.

 

So cheat then. You either land a punch or don't. One day AI will become the judge with 100% hit detection accuracy so humans can't cheat.

 

Fury has just embarrassed himself, his boxing legacy, and the sport itself,

This 'contest' shows just how weak the current heavyweight era is - a novice beating (thats what he did) the 'best of a generation'.

Shameful.

The only thing surrounding this that wasn't embarrassed was Saudi Arabia... and only because its not capable of being embarrassed by anything!

 

I think you need to give credit where it’s due. Ngannou fought phenomenally. I think based on his performance, he could easily mix it with the Joshuas and Wilders of the world.

I do think the era is light on talent though. Wilder is (technically speaking) a dreadful boxer. Joshua too is extremely basic.

 

The sad thing is when it went to points everybody knew the fix was in. NGannou still comes out of this a winner though. His stock is through the roof and he’ll have made a * load of money so fair play to the guy. Fury didn’t take this seriously and it showed.

 

The first McDermott fight, just about everyone had Fury losing, he got the nod.
Wallin wasn't 'robbed' as such, but the fight should have been stopped for sure. Again Fury got the nod because who he is, any other fighter gets stopped with that cut.
