I am not particularly disagreeing with the point you're making, just saying that the Fury’s themselves, Tyson included, have said it'd be a disgrace to lose to a non-pro boxer.He’s not a disgrace though is he mate?
I followed all of that but you have to take what Fury says with a pinch of salt as his mood changes all the time. In the build up he had moments of saying he would destroy him and knock him out and in others was saying the exact opposite. I honestly believe it’s a mixture of being a showman and him being bi polar. Not excusing the performance, just think it’s a step too far calling him an embarrassment and a disgrace and making out he’s now an average fighter.
Fury has schooled fighters like Klitschko and Wilder and then looked absolutely average against people like Wallin and Pianeta, it happens. There’s just way too many overreactions at times. He was a bit shit last night and looked well off it, it’s probably hurt him mentally that performance but he’s not suddenly a shit fighter that would get turned over by Joshua and Usyk or a disgrace imo.
It's obviously the talk of boxing and MMA circles today and the fallout is really far reaching.
This fight went from: how long until he knocks him out or carries him for to N'Gannou looking like the winner for many pros and experts and that's surreal and hugely embarrassing for Fury.
I think you can ignore the rhetoric about what this tells us about Fury, mind, but having said that, the world will be watching his next bout intently and he is going to have to make a serious statement to silence doubters/haters now.
