I don't know why but I am going to humor you cause you are such a tough wise sage.

How would you have me back it up if I took a notion to do so?

Please aware me.

I still do could care less. I just told you I was humoring you.

You asked me a question I'm responding.

How would you have me prove it or in your words BACK IT UP?

SEE Yet THE IDIOT CLOWN YOU HAVE MADE YOURSELF look like?

Probably not.

But I'll wait for an answer. Which I probably won't get

Everybody has a plan untill they get punched to the face youre being too prideful for boxing. Its embarrassing francis fkd tyson up, i hate that it happened. Love it for francis hate it for boxing im a ex boxer too i had 18 bouts lol im not a ufc/mma nerd.

Be open minded bro


And yes, that unconventional muscle memory to all the mma chit absolutely can distract

Francis vs a known fighter is big money right now.

Like latverian already mentioned none of the legit boxing governing bodies touch these fights, but Saudis have fukk you money and are a sovereign nation so they can basically throw cash at anyone and have them fight.

Fury didn’t take the fight serious. He came in lazy, with some lies about a full camp thinking he’d steamroll Francis. Francis is an elite genetic specimen with experience at the highest levels of MMA so he surprised fat Fury especially the knockdown.

Fury defaulted to technical boxing and outboxed Francis for the rest of the fight. Many had emotional responses to Francis being more willing to throw power shots, but he landed at the same rate or similar to Fury on those while Fury landed much more clean on jabs and crosses, avoiding Francis, etc. Boxing is scored unless you get a KO and Fury simply had more points.

Back to the topic Anthony Joshua has shown interest, but he isn’t as big of a draw as someone like Wilder. Wilder might do it for the mega money since he can’t actually beat Fury at this point of his career. Usyk is the biggest loser in all of this since Fury will likely breach their contract and just pay a fine. Usyk deserves a shot against Fury, but he wouldn’t take one against Francis because Francis has no place fighting champions since he hasn’t earned it yet.

lmao at the Jake Paul suggestion. Even if Francis held back 90% of his power he might nick Jake with a jab and kill him.

Agreed i got wilder taking ngannou. But 1 thing most people dont credit francis for.
Look at the ****ing dude, and imagine the force hes coming at you throwing BOMBS.
You switch up a gameplan right quick. None of the fighters you see in the top 20, would look like the way they have, against this behemoth.

I dont think fury took the fight lazy at all, he was ALL in. Nobody goes to a ring with a ****ing 6'4ft 270lb RIPPED black man whos known as the hardest hitter in the world, came in 'lazy thinking hes gonna steam roll him' . You out yo damn mind.

Ngannous biggest perk is his intimidation factor. If he learns how to box great, wich i think he can i mean we talking a guy who started mma training at 20 smth & became a heavyweight champ 4yrs later. He will be unstoppable for a period
