Chris Eubank Jr

Wasserman Boxing and WBO number 1 Middleweight

Watching from ringside I thought Ngannou won the fight. It was close but he was the aggressor, landed heavier shots & scored a knockdown. Fury deserved to lose after having so much trouble against a man who has never boxed before… too much time filming Netflix specials not…

Fury massively overlooked Ngannou, found himself in deeper water than he thought he would & couldn’t get out of it.

Close fight on the scorecards but have Francis Ngannou edging the rounds out when he needed to

The lion can’t let the shark come into the jungle and nearly beat him. Ngannou’s stock is up. Fury’s stock is down in a luckluster win for Fury. #FuryvsNgannou
