I must say that I am speechless. Either the fight was fake from the very beginning, or Fury was under something. Otherwise I cant explain why he ate most of what Ngannou gave him. If that is the real king, then he will be in huge troubles in a fight against Usyk. In that fight I did not see any technics from Fury. Or Ngannou tricked him, he has expected close range fight, while Francis shot a lot from the distance.
P.S. Such a shameful fight for Fury...
Usyk's promoter has put it very nicely,
Krassyuk believes Fury had taken Ngannou very lightly by focusing too much on the big payday he received for the bout and not focusing enough on training camp,
"Everyone, including Usyk, did not give much chance to Ngannou. But the man has shocked the world. Fury underestimated his opponent. Arrogance, lack of discipline, and thirst for money lead to these kind of circumstances. But we have December 23 inked and Fury cannot escape that," Krassyuk told Sky Sports.

Unfortunately, Frank Warren already says that the December fight might not happen.
And Fury really take the fight lightly and just wanted to win by decision. Maybe he really felt the power of Francis, but now the decision is controversial as majority thinks that Fury lost this fight.
Yes, it's a win, but if you look at Fury's record, first time that he won a fight by Split Decision (SD).
