See my post above - the title wasn't on the line.  The commentators kept emphasising it wasn't an exhibition match, but i don't really know what it was ? 

It was to promote Saudi Arabia as the next home of heavyweight boxing and make Fury, Ngannou and their various hangers on shit loads of Saudi oil money and grifted ppv buys. The event really should have been called 'The Cash Grab in Riyadh.'

Classic Fury. Still think it will happen due to the huge pot of Saudi oil money on offer and they won't just let Fury walk away from this. He could fake his own death and disappear i suppose.

hmm.. ok... so that link has the statistics of the Fury fight and notes that Fury landed the more punches. Ngannou only landed 6 punchs in the last 2 rounds which COULD be why they gave it to Fury. Other than just blatant corruption, of course..

Harlem Eubank vs Benn would be a much better match up at 147 instead of trying to make the fight against Eubank Jr whos two weight divisions higher (or weight a drained Eubank at a catchweight).

The shine has been taken off from that Ngannou fight but pleased it's happening (or so we hope!)

 

Shocking performance in that fight, but I’m sure he will be more up for this one

Still plenty of time for Fury to retire, comeback & retire again on the eve of the fight.

Will only believe this goes ahead when he's in the ring in February. 

He's a mess.

He looked like he was on "something" at the press conference yesterday. He's got 3 months to get him self in shape and properly prepared, otherwise he's in a lot of trouble against Uysk. Fury has looked out of shape since the 2nd Wilder fight and its questionable whether he's really on the decline or just been on the piss for the last 2 years - his reflexes and footwork definitely aren't what they were.

It’s bizarre really. As I’m not really sure who the best heavyweight is at the moment.

Fury beat Wilder 2 times. That count where Fury rose like the Undertaken from WWE was slow. Wilder has freakish power but he hasn’t ever really been tested himself. Wallin gave Fury issues as well. I can see him giving AJ the same sort of problems. Ngannou with more experience finishes Fury as well I think. 

 

Whyte, Chisora, Povetkin, Parker;  etc have always been the class below. You could state that the fighters that AJ beat haven’t been that great in hindsight? 

 

Uysk schooled AJ twice, however AJ got it really wrong in my opinion in both fights. Uysk is a great boxer but doesn’t have the power. 

 

Ruiz was out of shape Vs AJ in his rematch, as I’d have fancied him to beat AJ again. 
 

Zhang is an interesting one, as he has power. Hrgović Has always look okay as well and is still undefeated. Anderson may be the one for the next generation but he’s not been tested. Likewise with Sanchez, Makmudov, Kabayel and Jalolov. 
 

The fights Klitschko lost were at the end of his career and he still gave Fury and AJ issues. Fury lesser than AJ may I add.


Miller could be dangerous but again, he looks like he’s on something half the time so people will always question is he’s clean.

 

Fabio Wardley is slowly making an impression too. Another knockout win last month.
