3/8/24 DAZN PPV - Well Damn Official Anthony Joshua vs Francis Ngannou Thread

[Big Boss]

Fury in the front row like

He can win the fans back over if he beats Usyk

 

[Big Boss]

Nah Fury would always lose to AJ. There's a reason why Fury has avoided AJ since they sparred.

Styles make fights and other clichés. But in the AJ ,Wilder, Fury triangle. Fury beats Wilder, AJ beats Fury and Wilder (2019) beats AJ. 2024 Wilder gets sparked.

And Usyk beats everybody

Yep, it's a fickle world

Still think no one has really fought ugly with Usyk. That's what is needed to be him. Lots of head butt's and elbows in the clench

 

[DapMeUp!]

Yep, it's a fickle world

Very.

It's crazy if you asked anyone who wins out of AJ and Fury after he fought franklin the large majority would say Fury without thought.
Now AJ put together a couple KO wins and Fury looked trash against Ngannou all of a sudden he would always beat Fury

Tough watch tbh. On one hand had to pull for the fellow naija breh because he couldn't afford to lose this sidequest as he continues his redemption arc.

On the other hand, Francis is the coolest and most humble mf'er who represented more than just himself with his upbringing, rags-to-riches story, and out-maneuvering the corporate cacs in the process.

30 million richer but hated to see him go out like that. From a competitive/pride standpoint, I wouldn't be surprised if he went for one more saudi fight just to get a tally mark on the win column, and retires after.

The Drake Curse is real

 

[Roid Jones]

Why did Francis switch to southpaw?

 

[TheNig]

My guy Parker really bounced back after that third round and dominated from a pure boxing perspective.

Wish they didn't have a rematch clause as would love to see him take a different fight. He's looking the best he ever has.

Definitely the best I've ever seen him look. Happy for him.

I think it has something to do with his trainer.

You look stupid as hell for posting this.

Again, where was this game plan for the 2nd Usyk fight? What I said had no bearing on the fight with Ngannou , oliburuku.

 

[Megadeus]

I don't know if it's been said already....

But this turned out to be the most accurate sport thread title in the history of this site

 

[sportscribe]

This angle

You could tell from the 2nd knockdown that Francis has never been hit that hard in his life before. He had a look of complete shock on his face.

My hope for Francis was to get 3 big fights/Saudi bags: Fury, AJ & Wilder. But after getting brutally KO'd like that I hope he goes back to MMA gets some wins, and then retire and help build up his community in Cameroon.

His life story is incredible. Whatever breh decides to do with his career, I'm rocking with him. But a really bad KO like that can permanently change a fighter...

its a different feeling for real. AJ had his lead foot in the perfect position and put his whole body into that shyt
