I just edited my post to include "Usyk and Franklin have never been stopped by anyone in the pros."Meant to say AJ has one KO in last 4 fights, but fucked it up.
You're also right that 6'9 is bollocks. But the point is, he is a massive bastard because he's got the weight on top of the height.
Anyway, I grow tired of this speculation. If Francis doesn't get the Fury rematch and never fights AJ or Zhang or Wilder etc. then we can call him/his handlers scared.
Right now there's a perfectly legit reason to wait for the Fury-Usyk fight to happen, even if I think it is misguided
Again, I never said anyone was scared. This is a business. Certain types of fighters are navigated around at times by a fighter's team that handles them. Or the fighter himself. Waiting for Fury-Usyk is silly considering there's a two-way rematch clause. He'll be waiting quite a while for the winner and frankly he doesn't deserve a shot at undisputed. Having a competitive fight with Fury but ultimately losing the decision isn't enough to warrant it. Both Fury & Usyk will be unavailable for the foreseeable future. Ngannou would be wise to fight someone else in the interim.
