It's pretty stupid people ITT saying Ngannou isn't a top striker in MMA just because he lost in boxing to world class boxers. Boxing's a differet sport with a more focused ruleset, and it has a much deeper talent pool than MMA or kickboxing thanks to its extremely well developed amateur...

Tyson is 20 years on from getting stopped by Danny Williams and Kevin McBride. He should be nowhere near a boxing ring.

They do in women's MMA all the time. Holly Holm being the most successful.

Do you think there's any systemic reasons for why the heavyweight division has a lack of upcoming talent?

Yeah you can be a pussy snitch.

I saw. Discussing things is good. Saying afterwards "the only thing that matters is Ngannou won at life" as a response is silly. If it doesn't matter then don't talk about it in the first place.

Then discuss it. Saying "the only thing that matters is Ngannou won at life" when discussing who won Fury/Ngannou is just braindead. If that's the only thing that matters then fuck off out of a discussion that you don't think matters. Or, do discuss it, but don't say that the only thing that...

If that's all that matters then go away and don't talk about who you thought won the fight.

How can you work it out as a draw?

6 rounds to 4 is the same as 95-94 considering Ngannou had a 10-8 round

Oh I typo'd originally. I meant to type "with both guys throwing that much per round". Don't get fights at heavyweight anymore with both guys jabbing that much per round, if someone's jabbing that much they're probably dominating.

Don't think you'll find many fights at heavyweight in this era with box guys throwing that much per round

I don't think it looked strange at all, people probably say that just because he didn't match their expectations, or because they have preconceived notions and ideas of dumb stuff like "MMA angles"

I thought Ngannou looked pretty good tbh. Good fundamentals, good timing and sense of distance. He even had a decent jab from southpaw.

It's a bit like Brock Lesnar being a WWE star and then going into UFC and becoming heavyweight champion very fast. People pointed to it and lol'd but then he made a lot of money for the UFC, like Ngannou can make a lot of money for boxing promoters if he keeps boxing.

I agree that the difference in ability between modern top boxers and the ones of yesteryear is overestimated by many, but I'm not sure this fight proves it. It's easy for someone to say "but Ngannou had modern boxing training the last couple years!" etcetc

I gave Fury 6 rounds, and so had him winning by a single point. Ngannou boxed great and has legit skills, and is very sharp and strong. Fury should've just boxed long but kept treating Ngannou like he was a bum for too long in the fight. Fury should outbox him by a wider margin if they rematch...

I had Fury by a point, Ngannou boxed great. Let Ngannou get a tune up fight, then put him in with AJ/Wilder. Winner can get Fury/Usyk winner.

Cut on Fury was head clash, uppercut didn't land. Ngannou boxing very well all things considered

"we have to use MMA angles"
