Place to talk about the **sport** of mixed martial arts
Kinda feel Tyson Fury didn't really take it seriously and I think he was incredibly lucky to be given the decision. Aj however knew that he had to take it seriously and just went for the Ko.
Feel a bit sorry for Francis as he's now 2 losses and likely going to go to 3 but at least he's making good paydays.
It definitely seems like Fury didn’t take Francis seriously. Joshua seems hungry right now. It should make for an interesting matchup with the Usyk/Fury winner if that fight ever happens.
Fury looked like shit in that fight. Not just skill wise, just his physical appearance. He's never going to look like AJ, but it was clear he hadn't done a damn thing to get ready for Francis. At least he owned up, and continues to own up, to his shit performance.
I could see Fury (an in shape and prepared Fury) beating Usyk. I can see Usyk beating AJ again, because history. And I could see AJ beating Fury. After the absolute drought of top boxers facing off, I don't have a lot of faith that any of those matchup will come to fruition.
