When it was announced that he was gonna be with Ngannou, the vids of Steven Seagal 'teaching' Anderson Silva the front kick suddenly popped in my mind.  It could be exactly the same thing.  I mean at the end of it all, Fury vs Ngannou is an expensive dog and pony show.

Yes you are right that mate furry vs ngannou will be a expensive fight as we are all know that this fight is one of the satisfied to watch and also for sure everywhere in the world that can access this fight will do a live stream. And for sure both fighters will has their own preferred highlights for this match. Some of a gamblers will choose Tyson furry to win this match but I think this is a hard fight as we all know that ngannou is a tough fighter.

Not only are you enthusiastic about this match, I even really liked the concrete neck (Mike Tyson) from my childhood, and in the end I was able to witness Mike Tyson's return to boxing again against Ngannou, of course it's worth watching and even for sure all boxing lovers will watching this fierce battle, because we know that Mike Tyson has decided to retire from the world of boxing, but I was surprised when I saw the threads regarding this discussion, of course this will be an exciting spectacle for me to watch with my family there who have always idolized Mike Tyson..

Talking about this fight, looking physically very far from Mike Tyson and Ngannou and very far from the age difference between the two boxers, if in terms of experience, of course Mike Tyson is far superior to his opponent, but physically Ngannou seems to be in good condition in stamina as well as movement and punching power are still in good condition, then what about Mike Tyson's punching power at the age of 57, is it still the same as the age when he was still a professional boxer, of course this is a question mark for all of us as spectators, even though this fight only aiming to make money, at least we are all still asking questions about Mike Tyson's condition, stamina and punching power, which is already 57 years old.

Mike Tyson has already an age which means his Stamina, power, speed and strength are not the same when he is in his prime or let say in his younger ages. But the veteran is still veteran and I think he has to prove us that ages doesn't matter as long as his body can sustain from the punches of his opponent then all I can say is that still he has a chances. But in the other hand ngannou will take the age advantages in order to defend himself he will use speed and power for sure.

Shocked because Ngannou waited for 3 years? Then you dont know the story of Ngannou and UFC at all. It took him so long because he wasnt able to negotiate new contract with his formed promotion. His new contract with PFL, allows him to have boxing fight while being signed with mma promotion. In addition Fury was busy fighting others and drinking Grin

In case some of guys don't know the fight rules of this bout, here's some of its details:

The fight will be conducted under standard boxing rules, marking a unique showdown between two formidable fighters from different disciplines.

Although no titles will be at stake, the fight will be scored by three judges using the 10-point must system. Over ten rounds of three minutes each, the fighters will battle it out in the ring.
https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/boxing/tyson-fury-vs-francis-ngannou-27303785



I head as well that Francis Ngannou tried to suggest and submit to the committee that both of them should use grappling gloves (the ones that are used in MMA fights) but it was rejected because this fight will be fought in the boxing ring and will be under the boxing rules, just like what the article is saying above.

Also, it shocked me to know that Francis Ngannou has been waiting for this bout for three years now and did really targeted Tyson Fury. So we can say that this storm has been already cooking for quite some time and that tells us that Ngannou will be prepared once both of them will commence their dance showdown in the ring.

No matter what the punch is, even if Fury slips and falls to the uppercut himself, a win is a win. Since this fight will somehow be official, then someone will write 1 on their record, and someone 0. But for me it will still remain a shameful circus (on Fury’s part) that chickened out and deprived the audience of the unification fight.

He cannot blame someone for that if ever his fight against Francis Ngannou will not be fruitful as he expected and hence will be a huge embarrassment to his career because he shook the wrong tree instead of continuing his way in the boxing career for the unification fight. For what it's worth, he have this coming and since this will be a professional bout, he should expect already that Ngannou will be coming to him hard because Ngannou himself doesn't want losses specially now that people are doubting him, he loved that!

In my opinion, it is too late to argue since Fury has already consistently disgraced himself (the first time he ran from Klitschko). I fully admit that in the future Fury may collect all the belts: the first way is to wait for the older Usyk to weaken and beat him “guaranteedly”, and the second way is to wait until Usyk loses to someone else and then take the belts. But all this will already make little sense, besides, the show fights are addictive - a lot of money with a minimum of effort and risk. It's hard to come back from this.

Fury has nothing to prove anymore, in my opinion. He already proved himself when he defeated a prime Wilder twice. During that time, Wilder held the number 1 ranking, and Usyk's name wasn't even in the discussion of champions. So, I don't think Fury is waiting for Usyk to get older or to lose to someone before claiming his belt. It's probably just a matter of negotiations between the two camps in terms of finances that hasn't been agreed upon yet.
I think there is still one though, to fight Usyk and this has been in the discussions prior to his fight with Francis Ngannou. And we thought that we are going to see a unification fight at the Heavyweight division. And it seems that we on the way until negotiations broke down. We can't really blame as what is the reasons, they both went public and pointing fingers at each other.

So for me, if he wanted to proved that he is the best in this generation, then he still has Usyk to beat and most likely he will also beat a prime and more so non even a prime version of his domestic rival Anthony Joshua and then he could retire as the one of the best Heavyweight.

Both fighters that are involved in this fight namely Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou have their own pending business to attend into like the ones mentioned above but for some reasons, like a misunderstanding in their respective negotiations, both fighters have come into terms to leave their own pending business for the meantime and proceed to a fight where they can make more money. It will be a win-win situation but Tyson Fury is the one who will be risking more since this bout will be a professional event.

So much for the Fury vs Ngannou clown show, Mike Tyson vs Fedor Emelianenko might just be among the card this October.  Consider this post as a filler though it's a bit of an off-topic, I just want to insert the info to leave a bad taste. So who you got and how does it play out?

This is Fedor's death wish by the way I guess Tyson wouldn't say no to someone that is dying. Mikie still got it, somehow he showed it in his last with Roy Jones.

It sounds like Tyson wants Tyson to lose according to his interview this isn't such a lopsided fight after all after examining Francis. But of course, he will be saying this since he is paid to train Francis.

Mike knows that at a certain age like 37, it's a lot harder to train someone to become a boxer unlike Fury who had been boxing his entire life. However it may end, Francis will still have the greatest story of his life from rugs to riches.

To be honest, Francis Ngannou needs to win this fight because I have never seen someone beat a professional fighter after exiting UFC.

Are you talking about beating professional boxer or any professional fighter? There are a lot of examples when fighters got fired or did not sign new contracts with UFC, but performed better and showed good results in other promotions or combat sport. Like Gegard Mousasi or Demetrious Johnson.

To be honest, I dont want Ngannou to win this fight. With winning, he would earn a lot, but that will trigger other fighters to leave other sports and move to boxing. Plus that will lower the importance of boxing. Because look, a guy can go to boxing from other combat sport and beat heavyweight champion in a debut fight. Boxing champs will look weak on a contrast with Ngannou.

In short it will set a precedence that Dana White doesn't like in the long term. We have heard his stories though, Dana low balling him and then he stood his ground and decided to go and fight Fury. So if he wins we might see an avalanche of UFC fighters, but who knows, Francis is fighting the best HW of our generation so very hard to see him winning even if he possesses that one punch knockout.

This is not his territory, so it's hard how he can out smart Tyson Fury even if he got trained by Mike Tyson himself. Because at the end of the end, him and Fury are the only two guys standing after the bell sounds.

You've got to give credit to Mike Tyson he is involved with these two fighters one fighter was named after him and he has a close association with the other fighter so getting him involved will add spice to the event, we never know but Mike could be involved in a thrash talk too, you know the Furys they want to hype any events where they are involved so we'll see in the press conferences if there's going to be thrash talks.
But I'm sure people will watch this not only for the boxing but for the dramas that come along with it.

It might turn that Mike will be the one to trashtalk with Fury, because I think Francis English level isnt good enough to parry creative insults and jokes that Fury gonna throw. Fury is a master of making fun of his opponents. And if you are not a native speaker, it will be hard not to lose that battle. How long Francis has been studying English? Probably around 5 years. It will be hard for Francis to parry something like "three piece and a soda" kind of joke.

Haha, I don't believe he's so desperate that he would hire someone solely for the purpose of trash talking. It's possible that his intentions go beyond just that – he might also be seeking insights from Mike Tyson on how to excel in boxing. Considering Tyson's status as one of the greats from the past, this could be a way to gain valuable knowledge. However, time will tell; regardless of their decision, I'm confident it will be geared towards enhancing the upcoming fight. As we can see from the current situation, the fight gained more attention once Mike Tyson's name became involved.

Yes, it is more than that. Iron Mike can do a trashtalk and he can definitely do that by just supporting Francis Ngannou without getting himself directly involved with the camp. But this is different and people are now giving more attention to the bout because they know that Mike can literally do a thing or two to help Ngannou in his bout against Tyson Fury. This is getting interesting folks!

Have Fun )@@( Stay Safe
To be honest, Francis Ngannou needs to win this fight because I have never seen someone beat a professional fighter after exiting UFC. I mean, all of them are entirely crashed due to their low oxygen capacity, especially in 12-round fights. They are all exhausted and can't continue to throw power punches after that and easily get beaten by their opponents. Tyson Fury is known to use that technique where he just makes his opponent tired and throws some huge punches to knock them out just like what he did to Wilder in their last 3 fights.
There is no way Francis Ngannou is going to defeat Tyson Fury if you take any combination as power alone will not mean anything in Boxing and that too against the best Boxer. The only aspect Francis Ngannou can do right now is to add Mike Tyson in his training corner so that the casual fans will be hyped thinking that it can make a difference  Cheesy. Tyson Fury is technical is every aspect of defense and counter punches and not just exhausting the opponent  Wink.

Imho, the fact that he was a boxer, does not mean he can be a good coach. Punching people is one thing, but seeing everything (opponent) from different angle, building strategy, planning, training is different.


It's different when you have someone in your corner who's been there and have one everything, Mike can impart some of his skill in the ring but of course, Mike Tyson is different from Ngannou, in Mike Tyson's heydays he has no strategy he just goes there and goes for the kill, he believes that everyone has a plan until they get hit, so if Mike can teach how to throw a more powerful punch and hit the target at the right time, Ngannou has a good chance, checking the poll here it's a close one, but we have a long way to go, and there's plenty of time for Mike to teach Ngannou everything he knows.

Yeah, a prime Mike Tyson is very scary, but I do think that he trains hard as well during his early days that's why he almost knockout his opponents.

But going back to this fight, he could motivate Francis too and maybe gives one or two pointers on how to throw that devastating knockout if he sees one. Votes though are very close in our community. But if you look at sports bookies, they really favor Tyson Fury and Francis is like 6:1 underdog. So it's just a matter of execution for Francis and he should be aware on how he can preserved his energy for the later rounds.

Ngannou might only be good if he is the one dictating the game because this would be what Mike would teach him to be. Not like a technical fighter who will identify patterns of how Fury reacts to certain approaches. Ngannou may fail in being a pressure fighter against Fury but he only needs one punch.

Like what Mike was always quoted. Everybody has a plan until they got punched in the face. Though it's a long shot, I would still hope for Ngannou to win. A new face coming from a very depressed country rising like Pheonix.





Well in my opinion, it's still depends especially because they're heavyweight. If we look at their previous fight, one of them will immediately drop when hit in the face one or two. I just wanna say that Fury is the most experienced boxer compared to Ngannou, so it's advantage for Fury. Ngannou is good at mixed martial arts, and since the fight is held in the boxing ring, it's always advantage for the one who is really a boxer and fought already strong opponents. If we analyze very well, it's an advantage for Fury but it's still depends since the one punch of Ngannou is enough to put Fury to sleep.

That lucky punch will just be considered a lucky punch but yes Francis can win if Fury will no longer be able to get up. Mike can contribute to what Francis can learn from now on. I do think the confidence of Francis will be lifted because of Mike Tyson on his side.

Somehow one reason to admire Francis is that he always wants to prove himself to the people who doubted him and although this might just be one of the most unprecedented, he might be able to make it with just one lucky punch.  

No matter what the punch is, even if Fury slips and falls to the uppercut himself, a win is a win. Since this fight will somehow be official, then someone will write 1 on their record, and someone 0. But for me it will still remain a shameful circus (on Fury’s part) that chickened out and deprived the audience of the unification fight.

He cannot blame someone for that if ever his fight against Francis Ngannou will not be fruitful as he expected and hence will be a huge embarrassment to his career because he shook the wrong tree instead of continuing his way in the boxing career for the unification fight. For what it's worth, he have this coming and since this will be a professional bout, he should expect already that Ngannou will be coming to him hard because Ngannou himself doesn't want losses specially now that people are doubting him, he loved that!

The Poll is superhype as there are lots of posters who voted for Ngannou to win when in reality his chance of winning is very slim. As what their betting odds have refelected;

Quote
Favorite   Odds   Underdog   Odds
Tyson Fury   -1,000   Francis Ngannou   +600
https://www.covers.com/boxing/tyson-fury-vs-francis-ngannou-odds

The kind of odds Fury had is an odds that 99% of the time would hit.  Smiley

And if we convert that -1000 to chances, it will reflect 90.9 implied probability.

To find out real opinions, one must look at voting with money and not with simple votes that cost nothing to the one who made a mistake in the forecasts.
I have always been amused by the American betting format - yes, in a sense it is convenient (it seems that it is maximally simplified so that the most stupid can bet hahaha), but if we want to move from quotes to percentages, then difficulties arise. The usual format is much simpler (you only need to divide the unit by the coefficient and we will find out the percentage).
