The fight started with Fury using his superior boxing skills and footwork to keep Ngannou at bay, jabbing and moving around the ring. Ngannou, who had a significant size and strength advantage over Fury, tried to close the distance and land his powerful punches, but was mostly unsuccessful in the first two rounds.

Fury showed that he was intimidated by Ngannou’s power, as he continued to jab and move around the ring. He also landed some hard shots on Ngannou’s face and chin, but could not hurt him as much as he did to Wilder. He also tried to use his psychological tactics and trash talk to get under Ngannou’s skin, but he remained calm and focused.

Does Francis Ngannou Almost Knocking Out Tyson Fury Affect Deontay Wilder’s Legacy?

The third round of the fight was one of the most dramatic and exciting moments in boxing history, and it generated a lot of buzz and discussion among the boxing community. Many people praised Ngannou for his impressive performance and power, while others expressed their admiration for Fury’s toughness and heart.

While most people enjoyed the thrilling fight between Ngannou and Fury, some people also wondered how it affected the legacy of Deontay Wilder, who had fought Fury twice before and lost both times. Wilder, who is also known for his knockout power, had knocked down Fury twice in their first fight in 2018, which ended in a controversial draw. In their rematch in 2020, Wilder was dominated by Fury and stopped in the seventh round.

Some people argued that since Ngannou was able to knock down Fury in his first professional boxing match, it diminished the impact of Wilder’s knockdowns of Fury in their first fight. They also claimed that Ngannou was a better boxer than Wilder, who had been criticized for his lack of technical skills and fundamentals.

However, others disagreed and defended Wilder’s legacy, saying that he had faced a different version of Fury than Ngannou did.

There’s no doubt for the rest of this week there is going to be discussion around whether the Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou fight was fixed. Based on what took place during the fight, it almost seems impossible to think that Tyson Fury won enough rounds to be victorious. It’s tough to argue with anyone who feels that Francis Ngannou got cheated, but there definitely needs to be a rematch.
