Congratulations, this is an incredibly stupid post.

"Did he take a dive for a knockdown?"

If it was a Dive, he would've STAYED DOWN. That's what a Dive is.
Calm down dear, it's just a question. I didn't rent it shoes. I'm not buying it a fvcking beer. He's not taking your fvcking turn, Dude.
…. And I’m guessing the suggestion is the supposed ‘dive’ wasn’t to throw the right, but just to make it more exciting in the knowledge he’d always get the nod.

But no, defo not a dive!

It was just something that was mentioned to me by a couple of Juniors at work. They're MMA fans who tuned in and didn't think it was kosher. Personally, I think it was.

My opinion, for what it's worth, is Fury turned up with the intention of carrying Ngannou and it backfired on him spectacularly.

I think Fury's punch resistance ain't what it used to be. I think his focus and mental game is severely depleted and he will never be as good as he was in the second Wilder fight.

I reckon you could be bang on there re Fury’s approach to the fight.

Thoroughly unprofessional and more than a little arrogant if indeed the case. Maybe Team Fury’s research really did begin and end with watching those uninspiring Twitter clips of Ngannou patting the pads / heavy bag.

I concur.

Fury thought it would be so easy,,he could coast to a win, without the need to make it an exhibition.

When he got there, Ngannou was better schooled than he thought, and much much stronger than anybody he faced since Wlad.

He also found his reflexes weren't quite up to muster.

At 35 and with few serious fights and lots of extra curricular activity, it would seem highly improbable he could return to his best level, arguably his 2nd fight with wilder.

he's also possibly still drinking and doing other things, he's utterly chaotic, those things take a toll.

Nah
He’s just an old slow never was. (At high level).
How a novice like Ngannou does that in a glorified exhibition). What would “The Bodybuilder” do?
He should fight said “Bodybuilder” as he is in his own terms “match fit”
Let’s do it AJ!!!!!!
Where are the Instagram messages?
They are all just taking the pi$$.
Ngannou rematch followed by DelBoy 4

AJ v Dillion

Fury still a lump tho A deranged but dangerous one at this level. But the level is terrible.

Why is anyone suprised he got dropped by a heavy handed guy , OK the guy is'nt / was'nt a great boxer but he is renowned for heavy hands , clearly the punch did'nt look like it had a lot in it , but its the ones you don't see that do the damage , and after all we are talking about a guy who nearly knocked himself out with his own upercut , :lol: :lol:

I see people saying boxing is crap, boxing was shown up, etc etc

Fury is overrated, always has been and always will be. No chance Ngannou even lays a glove on someone like Usyk

I can’t believe nobody has mentioned equilibrium yet. Balance switches off for 2 secs.
