Essential 10/28 ESPN PPV: Fury vs Ngannou IS OFFICIAL!!!

[patscorpio]

Slow as fukk! If he has tyson on the ropes then may have a chance to land!?

im not deluding myself into thinking francis has anything more than a slight puncher's chance lol...he is slow of foot and hand for a big gypsy mfr who actually moves lol

How many more freak show fights like this until MMA fans finally understand it's just not gonna happen and they lose their appeal?

At least the undercard is solid, much more interested in Wardley vs Adeleye than in the main. Bakole vs Takam is cool too though you have to wonder when they stop using Takam as a trial horse, dude's 42. On the other hand he's coming off beating Yoka. After and tbf even before the Bakole fight we knew Yoka won't go far but still a nice win at this age.

at least they made it a heavyweight affair...not ones really known like that and most likely all of them will be getting good paydays from the saudis for this

i think the only ones running with that are

1. ppl who hate fury because of the wilder shyt
2. ppl who truly believe in ngannou and his power
3. mma fans who dont respect and/or ignorant about the art of boxing

I rock with Francis so I`m glad he getting a bag, but this is such a fukking waist of time. I actually woulda preferred Francis vs Wilder for some real circus shyt and It wouldn't hold up the division.

Francis is going to need to clinch fury to oblivion to stand any chance but fury is a huge man

thats not really a good idea...fury can fight in the clinch and on the inside

thats not really a good idea...fury can fight in the clinch and on the inside

Then really he has no good options but fighting on the outside seems like suicide

This is nothing more than a spectacle. I’m happy to see Francis get paid but I don’t care who wins.
