Hope he does as he says and retires while still no defeats, on the other side I would like to se him more in the ring.

It's sad to retire without unifying the belts. I think he could easily do it too.

I hope he doesnt! He cant claim that he is one of the GOAT if he doesnt do more fights with competitive guys. Usyk, AJ, Frank Sanchez and maybe Andy Ruiz if he gets more serious. Screw statistics with 0 losses if you dont go all way to the end. He is 33, he is in prime, he can still box several years. I would agree with you if he was 38 or something like that.

Tbh I am sick of his retirement stories. Maybe he is creating better negotiating position with "retirement".

Dillian Whyte showed nothing in that fight. What a dissapointment he was! His stance usually is orthodox, and he boxed in southpaw this fight. Seriously? Switching stance for your toughest opponent?

MMA heartlessly, cruelly devours its legends and another went down the same path on Saturday.

The legendary Russian heavyweight, who in the first half of this century helped make MMA what it is today, had just been knocked out in 2:30 by Ryan Bader in the main event of Bellator 290 at The Forum.

Love boxing. Though, the best (not technically boxing) match I've seen in this young year was the UFC title fight between Glover Teixeira and Jamahal Hill.

At the moment fav boxer is Tyson Fury who is fighting Francis Ngannou October 28th in (All heavyweight undercard action) and just signed to fight Oleksandr Usyk for the Undisputed heavyweight titles. Taking place in Saudi Arabia. ** Afternoon fight in the us/canada.

Isn't Francis Ngannou a UFC fighter?

Isn't Francis Ngannou a UFC fighter?

Dana White didn't renew his contract on purpose because Ngannou became a threat to Jon 'Bones' Jones.

Fury vs Ngannou undercard is very good.


Fabio Wardley vs David Adeleye (Wardley got punched/dropped left bleeding at the press conference several weeks ago)
Martin Bakole vs. Carlos Takam (Bakole beat that French man Tony Yoka)
Joseph Parker vs Simon Kean
Arslanbek Makhmudov vs Agron Smakici (Makhmudov is a giant & deadly KO artist)

 

[WBarnes]

Ngannou lifted a 250lb opponent off the ground with a uppercut, so he's definitely dangerous if Fury gets over confident or sloppy.

 

[zerotohundredman]

They made an epic promo video and music video now for this Fury vs Ngannou fight.

No one watched the fight yesterday….?!

Well I did say Tyson would have to be on his toes and if he got sloppy... He got away with it though, narrowly.

More like a freak show...

They went for the saudi bag...

I have never seen so many celebrities/WC/elite of sports gathered on a event outside US, especially in the Middle East. I would even say that it was on par with SuperBowl ( by the number of top level athletes)

Saudis paid big money for this event

I watched it and I think Francis Ngannou was robbed as he clearly had the better fight and should get the decision in his favor.

I doubt Ngannou is a better fighter. It's just that Fury was clearly not focused on it. He was only focused on the saudi bank slip

Even if Ngannou has his roots in boxing , he is not a professional boxer , per say.

Fury is a boxer. And he knows the game. This match should have not existed. But hey , a payment is a payment at the end of the day....

I guess there's a question over Fury's form too, first fight back and all.
