As pointless as this “fight” is, I wouldn’t have any hesitation in picking Ngannou over the likes of Johnny Fisher, in a boxing match.
No way he beats Fisher. No way, at all. Fisher would dominate him from start to finish. And yes, I've seen Jonny fight.
agreed, any pro with a legit winning record is going to smash Ngannou

Yeo. Fisher destroys Ngannou and I'm saying that as a boxing fan who was an MMA fan prior for many years before. Kilburn's quote there is up there with one of the worst non-trolling opinions on this site.

I love MMA, love watching it. But this is boxing and he'll get battered, unless Tyson wants to play with him a la Floyd-Paul. Octagon, Francis kills him, but this is boxing.

Fury is going to carry him. The only way Luke stops him early is by accident,

Yeah yeah okay then. So who are the boxers that Ngannou could actually beat, what’s the cut off point?
Could Ngannou beat any of Fisher’s opponents? Or is that an automatic no no based on the fact that those guys have taken part in at least 1 professional boxing match, and Ngannou hasn’t?
Reading some of these posts, it’s like folk think Ngannou is some shot putter who’s having a dabble in the fight game….
Come on tell me the 50-50 boxing matches for Ngannou, throw some names out.

you're not allowed to call him by his first name, John will get you!
you are also very likely right re outcome.

I have had an excellent evening watching the All Black's vs Ireland: two great sides going at it.
Meanwhile, in boxing, we have Misfits and Tyson Fury vs a rank amateur to look forward to. Bizarre. And a sad state of affairs for the sport.

How the fornicate can you moan about this when you spend your weekends watching KSI? You guys are cooked, finished, done as boxing fans. Social media addicted knowing it is nonsense but trying to keep up with the times. You guys are absolutely FRIED.

People seem to forget that non-boxers can step into the ring and beat a boxer.
Just look at Freddie Flintoff and his excellent performance. Dominated the fight, and would likely have become a domestic-level champion if he didn't get a shoulder injury.

They are being promoted and packaged as boxing matches, shown as boxing TV stations with boxing journalists and media covering them.

I didn't watch the Misfits event and won't be watching the Fury vs Ngannou event. The Misfits stuff, including the build up, is pure trash, and I've no interest in seeing Fury in yet another guaranteed victory fight. I used to enjoy watching him box.
