It should have been stopped before. He was out on his feet when the punch came in.Yeah but how does he not see that coming? This crap is embarrassing for the sport.
Staying up? Hes a 9-5 guy. Goes to bed at 9am and wakes up at 5.Thoughts and prayers with @hobbers staying up late to watch that.
Or he's not as good as people thinkHe clearly didn't take that fight seriously at all.
Ngannou, McGregor, Paul, KSI etc
How do you prepare tactically for a fight when someone has never fought in that sport?Why did Fury struggle so much with Ngannou?
Step 1 is probably having a camp longer than the five weeks he bothered with.How do you prepare tactically for a fight when someone has never fought in that sport?
Ngannou was really, really poor tonight, left himself open all night for that straight right.
I don't think the AJ/Fury fight ever happens. I think Fury will retire after 2-3 fights against Usyk.
New. I think. He didn't have that speed or smoothness before.That knockout was old AJ.
AJ has a worried look on his face in most of his recent pre-match appearances. I’m not convinced he even believes in himself anymore.

I’m not sure he’s even got 3 fights left in him. Small camp or not, it’s quite shocking that Ngannou looked so good against him now we have further context.How do you prepare tactically for a fight when someone has never fought in that sport?

So now AJs beat him I guess Ngannou is back to being just an mma fighter and never a serious test at all
He should've never have been in the ring and the likes of hearn and Warren and fury have a lot to answer for. Could've seriously hurt

AJ is in a weird position. No idea what he’s going to do while Uysk/fury are tied up for the next year.
Who is he realistically going to look good against in a matchup anyone would give a toss about? Zhang? This version of Parker schools him like AJ just did. Wilder's shine has gone completely.N gone now? He lacks basic boxing skills at this level, defensively he’s way off. Which is to be expected to be fair. AJ looks sharp, fearless and hungry again, but he wasn’t tested tonight. Lets get Fury v AJ on, and put the winner against Itauma..
In the Wallin fight, AJ was devastating as well, and people played down Wallin. He's followed that up with another brutal masterclass - he seems a really good match with his new coach.Joshua is a total cynic now when it comes to the boxing game. He knows how the media build up fighters to chop them down and he doesn't buy in now. The losses and humbling have done him the world of good.
Never thought he'd look like a natural before; always considered him stiff and robotic, but he's really not looking like the rock 'em sock 'em robot, Bruno reincarnation anymore.
He's said after the fight, the old him would have had a very different fight and probably taken years off his career against the exact same opponent, but the new him is a lot more savvy and clean.
He bigged up his camp and the work they're putting him through, and it really looks to be paying off.

His best bet is hoping Jake Paul still wants to 'fight' after he's cashed the Tyson cheque.

I also think as bad as they were for his reputation, those fights with Usyk improved him massively as a fighter, and with the confidence back, he's gone up a few levels
Yeah, I didn't give him as much credit for Wallin as others did because I thought Wallin looked terrified. It wasn't even the destruction in this bout that raised my eyebrow, but the really nice padwork they kept cutting to pre-fight, and then he executed the very same perfectly in the bout proper. Just don't have Joshua down for that kind of speed and fluidity so it threw me a bit.In the Wallin fight, AJ was devastating as well, and people played down Wallin.

Moses Itauma! He’s already the best heavyweight in the division and you can quote me on that.
