MMA would be stupid, one kick and wilders tooth pick legs will buckle or break. A boxing fight would be a real banger obviously, and looks like its getting some serious momentum already. Francis is definitely more durable so that would make it really interesting. He has never been hurt in his career.

I don't know why you guys keep saying that Francis has never been hurt. Miocic made him stagger with a step back counter right hand over the top. He went to follow up but rushed in recklessly and got slept. Just because Francis immediately recovered doesn't mean he wasn't stunned there for a split second. He was. It's literally on film. Wilder has the type of explosive power that will switch off the lights. He surprises everyone with that straight right hand. Francis' only chance in boxing is to get to Wilder before he gets to him.

Staggered is exaggerating. It looks like he was surprised and just pushed back maybe slightly buzzed for a split second because it surprised him. You act like nobody can take a wilder punch, I guess you forgot Fury took his punches over 3 fights and he does not have a great chin. His power is way overrated. If it was that good Fury would not have been getting back up so many times and he would not have walked him down in the last 2 fights.
 
Ngannou wins because he got a iron chin. Wilder chin is glass at this point.

If Wilder vs Ngannou gets made in boxing we'll see how it goes. My money's on Wilder knocking him out before Francis is able to get to him. Right now I'm hearing about some mixed rules contest in MMA. Some PFL exec is talking about it. Francis can be hurt and sooner than later you'll see that. Whether it's Wilder, Joshua, or Zhang hurting him in there it'll be undeniable when he gets cracked by a real puncher. Ask Joyce how that Juggernaut shtick went for him once he was in there with a guy that could hurt him. Even the sturdiest granite chins have been cracked. That's just heavyweight boxing.
 
fuck, i don't know who to root for, I don't like Wilder but I don't want some mma'r beating a boxer.

After the other night, wouldn't know what to expect but it probably won't be much better or worse than what we got sat.

Wilder will beat the shit out of him.
Fury landed those half ass straight rights and they snapped Ngannous head back.
Hes gonna eat one of those Wilder shots and not like where this fights going.
 
Fury fought Wilder 3 times... unless you mean something else...

I think this is a good fight for Wilder, though. A slow guy with low output is probably his dream matchup (except for the power).

Ngannou isn't slow - his counters are what wilder will be vulnerable to.

However fury was hit with more power shots than he managed to hit mgannou with. If even fury couldn't avoid ngannou's power shots, how can Wilder with his for more basic boxing? Wilder will play right into ngannous preferred countering game by coming down the middle to try to.set up his only weapon - his right cross - with his jab.

For sure Wilder doesn't have the chin that mgannou has with far less wear and tear on it. Ngannou hasnt been rocked once let alone knocked down. Wilder has been knocked down and out multiple times. Wilder gives up at least 40 pounds to ngannou.

Maybe, whatever the case, ngannou is wise to milk it while hes hot.
 
lmao at anybody walking through Wilder's punches. If Wilder connects with a right hand Francis is taking a nap.
He has a granite Chin. It would have to be an accumulation of shots.

Wilder has a habit of measuring distance with his left jab before unleashing his right cross. If that measuring left is nullified eg by hand fighting or parrying and pulling, that is likely to completely put off his targeting system. Also wilder doesn't tend to guard himself when he is throwing bombs as he comes in - meat and potatoes for ngannou's left hook.

It would be stupid like Francis entering a jits comp after a acl repair. Wilder is 40 almost and AJ is still ducking.
 
that version of Fury was the worst we've seen. He looked completely out of his element and would have looked garbage no matter who is was fighting.I think it's dangerous to have Nganno fight Wilder based on that performance.

Fury literally had no muscle volume. There was nothing but fat behind his puches. i said befor Wilder could potentially kill him and I don't think the Fury fight is representative of his actual ability as much as a testament to Fury's inconsistency.
 
Bad fight imo. Fury hit Tyson with straight rights basically exclusively. If wilder lands 2 of those fight is over.

I like Ngannou v usyk or ruiz or Joshua more
 
Ngannou isn't slow - his counters are what wilder will be vulnerable to.
I think he has better timing than he is fast, though he can be deceptively fast in the early rounds, where he is more dangerous with his counters. Wilder, however, seems a bit faster, and given that he likely won't have to deal with as much output as against Fury or Ortiz, he may have more chances to throw his KO-delivering shots. That's why I give him an advantage, though it clearly seems like a dangerous fight for both.
