RBR ***Official*** Sherdog Sanctioned Fury vs Ngannou Discussion PPV 10/28, 2PM EST

[liner]

It's like if Michael jordan had made the majors and hit . 300 with 25 steals at the break and they shunned him from the all star game

My stream was cutting out constantly for the first half of the fight and the 2nd half I didnt score but it generally seemed evenly matched. I will give it a proper watch tomorrow to judge properly.

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

Francis did more damage ftw not a robbery but he put on for MMA. And this was his dream.

I think it's a perfect representation of MMA at its very best against boxing. Did damage, was game, toughed it through to the end, and lost a split decision by a round. On average, the boxer would fare much better, but a win either way. I'm not saying boxing is better, but it's a generalist vs a specialist in a sport with a rule set that's built to develop specialization.

0-1 and about to be the WBC Mandatory Contender

 

[Busgosu]

"Looked like he could end it" is a delusional take, but that aside... that isn't part of the scoring criteria.

I know, but did really Tyson even outbox Ngannou? I just can't see it

 

[Thunder-747]

Fury got dropped, he clearly didn’t train hard and wasn’t close to 100%, but the decision wasn’t “predetermined” and he didn’t expect it to be that hard

You realize the next fight he is promoting is Usyk… this fight is bad for the promotion of that fight, so your theory that Fury WANTED to look like shit against Francis and barely win a decision is pretty moronic, or biased, I gave you the benefit of the doubt you’re just biased but maybe you’re just dumb <45><45><45>

Yeah I don't think Fury planned this in any way as this does nothing good for him.

Perhaps he didn't train as intensely as he should have -- but regardless, sounds like Ngannou did amazing so good for him

 

[maximus__]

Counters need to land to be scoring counters. Not hooks that hit air. And what's this "initiated the clinch" BS as a negative as if it's a scoring criteria?
Lol

They were landing. It's a comment on the supposed HW boxing champ choosing to initiate the clinch against an MMA fighter instead of boxing.

Fury just took his first loss and was outboxed by an MMA fighter.

 

[cheesus]

How do you win a round in boxing by being outstruck? Fury wasn't able to land anything without immediately being countered from round 4 onwards. He was actively avoiding boxing exchanges by clinching and losing in the clinches he initiated.

Francis just beat the HW champ and was robbed.

That's not what happened though, Fury was not being countered, he was landing more jabs than Francis over the course of the fight.

 

[websurfer]

Highlights already up on YouTube.

 

[MMA4Life]

Fury's performance in this fight has 0 impact on his boxing career. Nothing was on the line except for fight promotion. This does not negatively impact Usyk fight at all, only sells it more because people will believe Usyk will win even more and drive more sales.

I will say it again for those of you who know nothing: Francis fights Fury again with the "robbery" story line and loses again, or faces another prominent boxer because he "hung in there with the champion and lost a robbery, and Fury is too scared to fight him again." This is literally a WWE storyline playing out. Save the post.

Meh I don’t think that was rigged opposite. Fury thought he could make a display got dropped and would have been murdered in a real fight. That wasn’t he wanted and he landed a flush elbow. Francis humble in defeat. All good.

 

[Phisher]

MMA 6 years training Francis is so talented. Tim is right Francis didn’t bite on the feints and he just ragdolled Fury in the clinch:

Fury's safety blanket is always bullying guys, and it had no effect on someone stronger than him who actually knows wrestling fundamentals.

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

I know, but did really Tyson even outbox Ngannou? I just can't see it

outmoved him and outjabbed him, grabbed when in uncomfortable range to get back to where he wants to be. basically the definition of outboxing someone.

 

[dog y]

Imagine Fury all juiced up and ripped, would be crazy a crazy sight

He could be huge in wwe. Tall, big, charismatic

 

[Err]

He’s more of just not a human more of a gas object floating around. To the hard hitting monologues only one can get from Adam Friedland.

 

[Killer Kadoogan]

62 people here knew Ngannou was gonna win!!!!! I BELIEVE!!!!!!!!!!!!! LETS GO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NGANNOU 62!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Toothy]

I don’t know what fury is going to say about it going the distance and getting floored

it might be time for him to take some time off

I think he’s exact quote to Usyk was “lets go right now”. He’s not exactly eating his humble pie and acting like he didn’t just get his stock dropped numerous tiers.

COPE

 

[A Lurker]

Fury through an intentional elbow

 

[Dogpound2020]

Are you clinically retarded or just this much of a boxing shill? Lmfao

Imagine Fury going to MMA and landing a takedown on Ngannou, several nice leg kicks but Ngannou was more active with his combos and wins a split decision 48-47


how embarassing would it be for MMA fans to be celebrating that win lmao it's basically what you're doing here buddy, the boxing HW champ of the world fought a 37 year old MMA fighter and got knock down, cut, eyes swollen and barely won a decision. You're in the mud

But you don't lose a point for a TD in MMA...
