Ngannou thinks he can win a decision vs Wilder in a boxing bout

[MartinBrowntree]

Just saw Francis' interview with TMZ, and at 3:20, he says he is expected to win a boxing bout vs Wilder, even if it goes to decision.

Is he being delusional, or does he really believe this haha? Either way, it looks like Big Frank gonna get his money, so kudos to him. Let's just hope Deontay doesn't hurt him too badly.

Punchers chance or DQ are his only chances.

 

[LoneLynx]

I think he knows he has no chance

 

[joeson]

Of couse he thinks he can win. Why would you go into a fight thinking you are going lose? Self fulfilling prophecy.

 

[Ares Black]

That seems unlikely

If Frank is completely healthy and at his maximum cardio level and performs at 100% of his optimum potential and Deontay is a bit shopworn-

he can dream of resembling a poor man's version of Gerry Cooney v Larry Holmes.

Most likely scenario is he's left unconscious within 4 rounds after landing at about a 5% connect rate.

 

[flektarn]

His MMA striking isn't even clean. Wilder would end this guy < 3 rounds. Whatever, he's lying to sell a fight.

 

[I WILL CUT YOU]

I don't like his chances

 

[dog y]

Wilder will touch him and the carcass will drop.

Nothing gets me more hyped than a fighter predicting a decision

 

[Killer Kadoogan]

It would be delusional if he DIDN"T think he could do it. He's got to have psycho levels of self-belief. Now, whether or not he makes the deal happen is an entirely different story.

 

[Rektkid]

Doesn't have the cardio for a decision and Wilder doesn’t do warm-up rounds. 1st round brutal KO looks likely.

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

Is he being delusional, or does he really believe this haha? Either way,

Er, if he really believes it, then he is being delusional. So there's only one way to that, no "either way" really available.

 

[IDL]

Doesn't he pretty much have to say he thinks he will will regardless? For marketing the fight there is really no other answer regardless if it is true or not.

 

[Tweak896]

Dana and UFC are getting owned if he gets 30 million and wins a decision against Wilder

 

[The Schmoop]

Of couse he thinks he can win. Why would you go into a fight thinking you are going lose? Self fulfilling prophecy.

I would fight wilder for 10s of millions of dollars knowing damn well I’m getting sent to the shadow realm. A lot of people would. Fucking duckets, buddeh.

 

[Clark Rogers]

It's kind of anti competitor to say "no way I can beat this guy but I'm going to fight him anyway."

I think a real boxer works him, but at least with Wilder he's not the most refined, technique wise.

Fight between those two could end up windmills from both sides lol. Whoever lands first.

 

[KID Yamamoto]

Wilder will finish him.

He won't last 1 round against a monster like Wilder
