Media BISPING: Francis Ngannou BOXES AGAIN on December 23! | Is it Anthony Joshua or Deontay Wilder?

[mudrubble]

Boxing really won. They get Francis Ngannou while we get Jones vs Stipe in early 2025.

IF they can both get out of their wheelchairs and pass physicals, that is

 

[Big Tuppy Hole]

I think Dillian Whyte would be the most entertaining one

But the least appealing

 

[Big Tuppy Hole]

He's had one pro fight in which he didn't win so why does he get a shot at the number 4 and 3 guy? Shouldn't he have to go up the rankings and well...and half the people celebrating this complain when the same thing happens in MMA.

Because combat sports is a spectacle hidden under the guise of a legitimate sport.

Personally I'm down for, it everyone loved this shit when Pride fighters fought K1 guys at the height of popularity in Japan and IMO where around the same peak again

 

[JohnMandick]

Good news! Hope it's true.

Because he arguably won vs the #1 guy in the world. And top boxers want to fight him. I get he didn't get the decision but anyone with a show like that against Fury should be fighting in the top 5-10 next.

Yikes, after this fight that bag will be FULLY fkn fumbled. What a loser. He needs to crawl back to Dana. In a gold robe with his servant girls strewing rose petals at his feet.

Finally, Dana gets to say "Hey, listen... I told you guys this would happen. As soon as he parted ways with us, it was all gonna go to shit..."

 

[BigTruck]

can he even pass the drug tests?

Do they even drug test in boxing? Serious question.

 

[Pancake Sprawl]

Do they even drug test in boxing? Serious question.

yes, look Dillian Whyte up. he's failed a couple. his latest fail was like August of this year when he was supposed to rematch Joshua.

 

[PeterGriffin]

If Ngannou does box again in December, it's pretty much a guarantee he will have made more money in two matches this year than he did in his entire UFightCheap career, lol.

 

[eddi]

huge if true

ngannou striking while the iron is hot. meanwhile fury has to sit out, put ice on his face, and reschedule his fight with Usyk.

for those that didn't watch the video Ngannou is basically taking the Fury vs Usyk spot on the main card.

Yeah he should try to not get embarassed to secure a fury rematch and bank hard, good thing its in december thats not enough for an insane camp for his opponent

 

[markg171]

Insane but not improbable, especially after witnessing him box on Saturday.

Given Fury's belt wasn't even on the line last Saturday I'd say it's in fact pretty improbable.

But you're retarded so I'm not surprised you didn't know Francis would have to fight Fury again with his belt on the line and win that fight to become HW champion.

 

[websurfer]

Zheilei Zhang and Joseph Parker head the list for December 23 as possible opponents for Ngannou.

I think Eddie Hearn is full of shit and that Anthony Joshua won't be ready for December 23. I'm happy with either of those two, the New Zealander or the Chinese dude. It takes balls to step into the ring with Ngannou and I applaud both of them for rising up to the challenge.

 

[markg171]

Everyone knows that the winner of Pav vs Aspinall is the real heavyweight champion, it'll just take a few months to be official while Dana goes through his battered wife acceptance phase of Jon's retirement.

I must've missed when either of them ever beat Gane, who was higher ranked and with better records than them.

I for one am shocked that Ngannou is making more money nowadays than when he literally turned down $15M worth of UFC contracts over the years fighting for them to instead purposefully fight out his old contract.

Just absolutely shocked.

I think Parker is franks best choice for a win. I honestly think Zhang beats him and might even stop him. He is 6"6 255lb and a southpaw with a deadly straight left hand

Yeah that guy is something else.

 

[Perceiver]

I'm pretty sure these guys are simply clamouring to do what Fury failed to do as they know right now it looks good but probably won't look good by his 3rd fight or if he loses his MMA fight in the summer.

Getting to be 2nd and having an emphatic performance unlike Fury is simply good timing. Especially for Wilder who hasn't been able to beat Fury.

Would be better if it was someone more skilled than Wilder, pulling for AJ.

 

[markg171]

To me the Fury fight just proved that the hardest method of beating Ngannou is highly skilled but weaker chin. AJ brings the same thing to the table and therefore probably has the same problems Fury did. Ngannou has the kind of chin and power to just walk through them to land his own which is always going to give him a chance.

Ngannou isn't just walking through Wilder's strikes, just like nobody else has. If he tries to Homer Simpson him he's ending like Homer did to Drederick Tatum. Beating Wilder is going to be much harder IMO because Wilder's punches actually will affect him, which will then just show off the skill difference.

He made more in one boxing fight than his whole UFC career already..

 

[emefer]

Probably gonna come in over confident and get knocked out
