The Specky Forum Organiser 69,524 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Just now, Tiger Shaw said: People are just seeing Tyson’s injuries and think he got battered not understanding how boxings scored and shouting about corruption, it was a close fight but imo Fury was doing just enough to take rounds. It could have went ether way but think the right decision was made. No conspiracy for me. Was actually a more entertaining fight than I expected and fair fucks to Francis he give it a proper go. I think Ngannou edged it slightly because of the knockdown but could have went either way. Tiger Shaw 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said that to my boy that my only worry for fury was the 10-8 round that might sway the judges in favour of Francis. Think looking at the last round and no real urgency from fury to go for the knock out he knew he had done enough to take it on points. Risky strategy giving how close the fight looked.

born a blue nose 92,657 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Thought it was a joke of a decision tbh. Probably aided by the fact I had money on nganu, but aye boxing's in the gutter and shite like this doesn't help the cause. In a round about way it would have probably been better for boxing if they called the fight right. Fury now still holds all the cards and a wouldn't be surprised if he finds a way to duck usyk. On paper usyk probably beats him easily. JimmyCR1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKirk 26,479 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Usyk needs to stop believing the tyson fury nonsense no chance they are fighting December 23. For a few reasons. He said himself he's going to take a break and spend time with the family. So at best it's the middle of November before camp starts. No chance he's only doing a 4 to 6 week camp. Secondly it would be the same night as eubank v Benn which is rumoured to be happening as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper usyk probably beats him easily. Think fury just edged it mate think the punches landed stats shows that. Francis definitely landed the more damaging shots, no argument about that and I don’t think Fury would have complained much if the decision went against him. Split decision was probably about right but genuinely could have went ether way. I actually enjoyed the fight, was a better more entertaining match than I expected.

Torn on the stoppage tbh. Based on how together Jiri looked as soon as he got up you could argue it was a but early, but Pereira had him in mount and it was only going one way. You keep that clock running and it's extremely likely you're just letting Alex give him extra brain damage for a few seconds. That being said, there's an outside chance that Jiri gets overhooks and pulls him down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pereira is an elite striker with frightening power, so will be a threat to anyone on the feet. We haven't seen enough of what he can do on the ground, but I don't suspect it's much. He tends to just hold on and try to negate the man on top of him if it's on the mat. The good thing for him is that the LHW division is mainly stacked with strikers. Maybe only Ankalaev would want to wrestle as a first option. Cooperson 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
