FN is a striker, unbelievable power, 17 stone of pure muscle, and knows how to train for a fight, think he opened a lot of peoples eyes.

Very, very powerful man. As much as I like Fury he is a boxer who carries a lot of weight but he does not have the dynamite for the power to weight ratio and the devastating one shot power, aka Wilder lol

Who is the fat sausage now?!

The whole thing was a farce. Two hours from the Wardley fight to the Fury fight. What a bore that was after an entertaining undercard. The fight itself was much better than expected and Fury lost it, but the WBC couldn't have that (despite the belt not being up for grabs) and the judges obliged.

Fair play to Ngannou, he was solid and took the injustice on the chin, he obviously knew it was coming.

I very much doubt we will ever see Fury in the ring fighting Usyk. He would rather keep the unbeaten ‘Gypsy King' myth alive as, for my money, Usyk outsmarts and outboxes him every time.

My guess is he retires again, then comes back (again) for another big money fight against a non boxer or two.

Without the Usyk fight can we really say that Fury was the generational great that we were lead to believe? Who does he really have on his record apart from Wilder and a 39 year old Klitschko? And while the Wilder fights were entertaining can we really say that beating him over 3 fights was such a feat?

Yes, obviously Wilder has freakish power in his fists, but how many tests has he really had other than Fury? He sat on the WBC belt fighting very beatable challengers twice a year for 5 years. Smart, but not exactly the stuff of greatness.

Agree. I think the USYK fight will happen around May

To be fair it is what he needed, he won't play about next time, typical gypsy showboating and gloating, out on the piss the night before too

Don't judge the Usyk fight on that it will be totally different to fighting FN!!!

FN deserves another shot too after a performance like that, although I would expect a different outcome

Well after watching the fight a few times now
Im going to be unpopular
as I think it was very very close but Fury just nicked it with the help of his point scoring Jabs thru out the fight after the Knockdown

EDIT
It turns out that despite Ngannou's best efforts, Fury managed to land more punches over the ten rounds.
According to CompuBox, the Salford-born star managed to land 71 of the 223 jabs he threw at his opponent.
On the other hand, Ngannou threw 231 punches but only made contact with 59 of his attempts.
Fury also reigned supreme in six of the ten rounds, while Ngannou had his time to shine in the third, fourth and eight rounds

Sounds about right to me. Fury hit FN with some good shots, just didn't phase him, that's when you know you are in for a hard night

Look at what he did with Otto Wallin, well off the game that night and that cut could have finished him!

To be fair, he openly admits he is mentally I'll which is sad really but I guess that's why he is up and down, I'm guessing there may have been a loss of focus for FN thinking he would walk it. He could have and should have jabbed his head off!

Thought I would share this, I'm obsessed

I watch a lot of fight stuff but KOTS is one of the best by far, virtually no rules and some proper violence going off, a lot claim to be football firms but they are proper trained fighters, they can fight! basically fight until somebody is out of there

Welcome to king of the streets

Even the music gets me buzzing

Go oarnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Nathan.

Above all else hope that all boxers come home safely.

Edit - The hard graft done is in the bank. Stay disciplined, stick to the plan and go get the best return possible.

Boy, is this lad going let all his emotions out should he become British champion. Not only for himself but for his father Joe who sadly took his own life shortly before Nathan becoming midlands area champion.

Everything well and truly crossed.

Good luck Nathan.

That's the Nathan we know. Thankfully stuck to the plan and schooled him.

114-114.

WTF should never officiate again.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
