I haven't seen the fight, but I wonder if he took it seriously.

He usually looks out of shape, but he looked like he hadn't been in camp at all.

I heard talk that he was in good shape? Usyk licking his lips rn fr

He said he was in good shape and had a serious camp. But it's Fury. He might have had a week camp. One of the commentators said he looked like a bag of milk. Or something along those lines. I can not imagine him even thinking of fighting Usyk the way he looked.

I actually liked this. Fury looked like trash, but I do think he won. I gave Ngannou 2,3,4 and 8. He showed some really great timing and used a diverse selection of punches effectively, which is not easy against Fury, even on his worst day. Boxing is Ngannou's first passion and I think he debuted well. This could reignite a dull as hell heavyweight division IF the promoters/alphabelts pounce on the excitement properly and keep the curiosity of the MMA fans. There's a lot of cool fights to be made here.
