I'm not sure he will because I don't believe AJ is a very good boxer with a particularly high skill set, if anything before both fights I'd have backed Nganou more against AJ than Fury.
Pretty much this. Joshua at his best knocking people out with raw power. Since the Ruiz 1st fight he looks terrified of getting hurt and tries to fight behind a stiff robotic jab style which looks awkward. I think Joshua will be very nervous on this one and i expect a pretty shite fight with him trying to keep his distance. No way again will the judges go against AJ as everyone knows boxing is fixed towards the bigger names who can generate the most money.
 
Feel like the Saudi card before Christmas was big on name value but not really all that big on quality match-ups or entertainment but this looks an absolute belter of a card on paper. Not particularly arsed about the main event but there are at least 4 really good fights on this one.
 
Well exactly. Which shows that ngannou isn't here just for the dough. He appears to be a reasonably good boxer having fought the current best in the world. We shall see tomorrow.
He isn't in there to survive like a lot of people that have fought AJ. He's in there to win and to knock him out. Yeah he's boxed before for Cameroon. He wanted to be a boxer. He's not a complete novice. His size, brute power and mental strength close the gap. At any other weight division it wouldn't be possible to close the gap but as others have said, heavyweight is very different. It's almost like a sport in its own right.

I think AJ will win but he'll have a hard nights work.
Ngannou been a champion at combat sport and is an absolute monster. Jake Paul’s career has been sitting at his computer on a microphone. I think there is a difference in pedigree and quality.
Absolutely

No mate it was always scheduled as a proper bout just without the belt on the line, I think in the main people just presumed it was an exhibition, Frank and Tyson talked it up as being a proper game changing fight from the start

Google suggests it was sanctioned quite late on after originally being touted as an exhibition.

If his belt wasn’t on the line then I feel like it was an exhibition.
 
Is the Joshua fight an exhibition or a legit fight?

I think Fury massively underestimated Ngannou as we probably all did. I’ve watched him before in the UFC and he’s got ungodly strength but I didn’t expect him to be as good as he was. Joshua’s got the advantage over Fury in that he’s seen what Ngannous capable of in a boxing ring.

I think Joshua’s too cautious to let it go to a dogfight with Ngannou, I expect him to just use his jab and keep his distance to a points decision. Fully expect a boring fight. It might get interesting if Ngannou puts the pressure on Joshua.

I’d be shocked if Ngannou wins though
