Kind of losing respect for Simon. Ngannou put himself up there by going toe to toe with Fury. Joshua deserves ALL the credit for being exceptional and NOT Ngannou's control. If Ngannou wants to box and people want to see him does not matter what you think Simon. There is a buzz about boxing and we the boxing fans are absolutely loving it. Times have changed, we want more fights, fights that fans want to watch.
Ngannou literally went over to boxing only for a paycheque. Boxing doesn’t want to see amateur boxers fight the very best in uncompetitive matches for money stop the cap
Don't be ridiculous joshua did exactly wot he was supposed to do with a boxing novice it would be other way round in the octogon expect a fury masterclass on may 18th exactly wot he always does when his backs against the wall
So true, for too long MMA fighters have been thinking these cross-over events are not as hard as people make it out to be. Anthony Joshua’s demolition job on Francis Nganou, has proved there are levels to this game, and the difference between a UFC veteran and a boxing veteran in a boxing match. It’s safe to say the MMA fight world have understood you can’t just walk into boxing without putting in the hard yards and the experience. This was a lesson. AJ did boxing a favour.
He doesn't know anything about boxing. He can't box. So why is Dan Hardy commenting on it? Seemed he got a padded record in the UFC in the easier days. Then got found out? He couldn't even go on Misfits boxing
@@Nonegiven14582 I’ve never boxed but love the sport and hold an opinion. Dan has been afforded the opportunity to give his opinion on a big platform due to his MMA career. As this fight consisted of a MMA fighter he has been asked his opinion and has given it with great aplomb.
@@Hassan87. He doesn't know anything about boxing. MMA is a 190 rule play fight. You can't push or even grab someone's hand while they are choking you. Thankfully it was more entertaining when Dan Hardy did it. Pre Usada. But all the do now is push their fingers towards each others eyes. Sometimes when their nails are long. Horrible sport. I will say it again. Why is he talking about boxing? Anyone who knew about boxing saw Joshua destroy British level fighters about 10 years ago. Like Hearn said. When not selling a fight. Francis wouldn't beat Johnny Fisher. Dan Hardy. If he came into boxing at 170. His UFC weight. He's be in with people like Canelo and there wouldn't be a points loss like he got with George St Pierre. He would be obliterated.
@@Nonegiven14582 Likewise if canelo crossed to mma he’d get his head kicked off but Dan was right whether you like it or don’t. Hes very clued up on world fighting
@@thetwistedfirestarter I don't think in a real fight anyone is going to trouble Canelo. Have you seen him? Watch the last round of the Billy Joe Saunders fight. Watch him against John Ryder? And at 175 you've got Beterbiev and people like Anthony Yarde. Can you, in your wildest dreams imagine Dan Hardy taking on either? Please tell me. Look at what Joshua did to their world heavyweight champion. Again, he rules didn't matter. Yes with 190 rules you can hug onto someone's leg in mma and they can't even push you off But if I was going down a dark alley. I'd take a boxer. Wouldn't you? Go watch Beterbiev highlights?
Don't be so "snowflake". Simon is annoyed at the state of the sport he loves and the thing is with Dan he loves wha6s going on with MMA v Boxing the very thing that winds me and lots of ppl up not just Simon. It's called "debating" not arguing.
Nah these mma fans have been talking for months about how boxing was being exposed, mma fighters don’t belong in boxing and boxers don’t belong in mma. Respect the craft.
I get that. I know. But Simon is an AJ hater he so didn't credit his past accolades which also contribute to why he stopped a novice boxer in ngannou. As a journalist you keep it real with facts
I don't blame Francis, the opportunity came and he took it and made millions....but it was more the arrogance of the casual audience that actually think that Francis will ragdoll an active former world champ in boxing rule that was annoying...
@@williambell7712 He dared to be great and had a lot of people considering his chances after the Fury fight, me included. AJ just took it very seriously.
Francis definitely will rag doll both AJ and Fury or anyone in the heavyweight division and below in the boxing world in a real fight, unfortunately, rag dolling is not allowed in boxing, only fists. @@buckhaa1502
People forget MMA in itself is a crossover sport, The UFC used to be boxer vs karate, Ji jitsu vs wrestler and so on, This used to be the intrigue with MMA!!! Its not nonsense at all.
Its not that people have forgotten we're boxing fans why should we know that? we don't care and you also said it "was a crossover sport" which is accurate, now its us boxings fans that have to put up with it in our sport and mma people talking on boxing is just as painful we don't give a f.
The only thing I can criticize Saudi Arabia cards for is how late they run! Midnight is far too late! especially the amount of time they delayed the early fights because Turki wasn't even in attendence
If they weren't in Saudi big fights like this would be in America and then it would of been 4 or 5 in the morning. It was on weekend and I assume your a grown man so stop finding something to complain about.
@@leons8755 well that's a stupid comment! The early Saudi events were great because AJ vs Ruiz for example had a main event time of 9 that was great to go from that to 12 am ring walks is a valid criticism
@@Airyedit’s not the time that the problem it’s the atmosphere it was like watching snooker 😂 you can hear the coaches more then the fans .:: Saudi will kill boxing

Well done Simon for standing up for boxing! Dan is someone who wants to see the fall off boxing. Don’t give these mma guys the platform. Boxing fans need to stick together 🥊
At the end of the day they're just trying to take away AJ's credit, Fury made boxing look stupid - he though he was going to beat Francis & didn't. Big up Dan, talking sense
AJ now entering his prime and under Ben Davison his confidence is at an all time high, this AJ we now have is a killer, he wipes out Fury easily wont be competitive, and I also believe he beats Usyk in a trilogy for sure!
He beat a 37 year old inexperienced boxer who was 0-1, get a grip. Joshua still has a glass chin, spanked by Ruiz, ran away from him in the rematch and outclassed twice by Usyk. Fury beats him easily as Joshua is weak mentally.
I think rhis bloke (Dan) is spot on cross over fights does have a lot of appeal, and AJ has got so much more fans than he has ever had before without question
I love Simon Jordan argument all the time. He make this channel exciting to watch. Give him credit for his balls to say what he thinks. My best pundit in the world.
Both Simon and Dan are absolutely right in their own way. Me personally the cross over fights should stop but it's hard to deny a fighter from mma to not make money in a boxing event if they can draw that attention.
Fury won’t want Joshua next if at all, he’s been running from him since AJ knocked ten bells out of him for three rounds sparring and there’s actually a tape of Fury admitting to it in a fleeting moment of honesty.
Ultimate hubris for Ngannou switching to southpaw against AJ. No coincidence that was the moment AJ got the first knock down. Apart from Usyk, AJ has made a habit of dismantling southpaws. I don’t think Fury, with his skill level, would even attempt the same against AJ.
Bless you guy, they are somewhat fury ass kissers, I don't even think fury will step in the ring with usyk let alone beat him, they hyped up fury as best of this generation just because he beat one trick pony deontay wilder, Amazing
Theres room for both elite boxing and cross over fights, like we’re seeing in other equally traditional and downtrodden sports like cricket and golf - The Masters for the purists, LIV golf for the RUclips generation.
I think if MMA fighters cross over to boxing its fine as long as they work their way up the ladder instead of jumping the queue ahead of the boxers who have fought multiple people to get their shot.
Well said Dan...Simon if u want see the best v the best get into ufc......boxing is a joke ufc ain't perfect but compared to boxing it's night and day...loved watching u in ufc BTW Dan ❤
Francis will never be the same after that knock out, in his mind he could not be beat and he thought he was the baddest man on the planet, his mind set will have took a big dent after that ko
I think Ben Davison style is perfect for AJ. Ben Davison‘s style doesn’t really focus on power. It focusses more on technique but AJ doesn’t really need to work on power. He has that natural gift from God so I think it’s a really good combination. I expect him to knock a lot more people out.
There was no obligation for Tyson Fury to face Ngannou in a fight. He CHOSE to fight Ngannou. Same way he chose Chisora. Why is the WBC facing more criticism than Fury? oh wait, Fury does not get held accountable.
@@NeverSober8008 Good for him. It still does not negate the fact that in HIS PRIME as WBC champion, he cherry -picked Chisora and Ngannou back to back, whilst also sabotaging the Usyk fight, despite Usyk agreeing to the 70-30 split and then got beat up by the same Dude AJ punished in 5 minutes.
@@ngqaphelimchunu4611 I agree they were cherry picked and money grabs but it’s better to stay active than to just not fight unless it’s a big fight. Even Joe Louis had the bum of the month club, didn’t matter because he fought the big fights eventually
Although Dan Hardy picked Ngannou to win which was a real egg in the face moment he still has come back saying he got it wrong which you have to respect. Other's too embarrassed to show their face.
@@JackJones-jn4oq if you believe Fury beats Usyk easy, you're either very deluded or not that bright, Fury himself has stated that he struggles against smaller faster opponents e.g Steve Cunningham, and the last southpaw he fought left him a bloody mess Otto Wallin. I get it that Fury's your guy but be realistic.
@Heera89ssR come back to me after the fight and we will have a chat usyk will lose fury wins easy same way I said aj wins easy against Francis I said aj stop him inside 4 rounds he done it in 2 rounds I said before aj boxed Francis he stopes usyk if they fight again and I believe fury gets him usyk out between rounds 8-10 if not easy win for fury 👍
Fury is not a top ten fighter. He will lose to Usyk by an early knockout. Anyway we all know that Joshua will destroy Fury so what’s the point of them fighting.
Dan Hardy does have some valid points this is partly why MMA gets more traction. Very few fighters want to be in 50/50 fights or take tough fights where there is a potential to lose. TBF we can`t blame them, look how much stick Joshua has taken and the overall way he has been treated? Considering he is trying to fight as many top contenders tried many times for Wider and the Fury fight? In heavyweights the only people that are risking and taking tough fights are Zhang, Parker, Joyce and Joshua. In the lowerweights we have Terrance Crawford, Bertev and Bivol, Cannelo is cherrypicking at the moment and ducking Benevidez, Devin Hayney is fighiting people. But these only make up a handful of people fight top competition I`m sure I have missed a few names but. This is why boxing is having alot of problems. Either no competition fights or in the case of alot of fighters only fighting 1 - 2 times a year with the exception of Canelo and a few others.
TF stated in the ring after his fight with MMA fighter FN that it was THE MOST difficult fight he has had……. AJ obliterated him within two rounds…… This myopic obsession with TF is delusional……
To be the champ you have to beat the champ, Fury beat Klitschko in 2015 and hasn’t been beaten yet in the ring. All the other belts are just belts, lineal is the real champ
Go watch on RUclips a nearly 50 year old former WBO boxing champion Ray Mercer starch former UFC heavyweight champion Tim Silvia in 12 seconds in the Octagon. Mercer hadn’t won a significant fight in 2 decades leading up to it. It’s beautiful. Absolute nonsense that massive punchers like AJ don’t stand a puncher’s chance in the Octagon.
@@andybirch4934 Toney was punch-drunk, decades past his best and his prime years were spent weighing between 160-168lbs. He was way too past it and way too small. He’d had 40-odd bouts before Couture had even turned pro. Hardly fair
When I was young I was very good at karate and fighting. But when I boxed I saw with my own eyes, that I had to stay away from the opponent's arms and reach as real and dangerous as a rattlesnake. I was luckily faster than them on my feet and could stay away and move safely. But I saw and learned that a boxers tools are such a specialty and under their rules, they are the rulers. It is stupid to say that a boxer doesn't have a chance in MMA. He has. Many boxers can fight on the street and many can kick low kicks with tons of power after a few months training and are as strong as MMA fighters. It's very individual. And on the street, there are different rules yet meaning no rules and an MMA fighter could easily run into a hellbent furious different kind of fighter there as we are all bound of rules and perceptions. Just like you can't compare a dancer on ice skaters with an ice hockey player or a floor dancer you can compare different fighter disciplines. They have in time become specialists and anything else would now become depraved. Also dogs want excitement but we are not dogs and so have some self-discipline and do not get out of control neither excitement nor in hate.
Unbelievable that Fury career is still not questioned, his best win never bit an elite boxer but somehow got beaten by a descent boxer knocked out by the slowest boxer ever! This belief in this man is bluffing me.
True, Ngannou was stopped in the second round doesn't take anything from him. Mike Tyson defeated a world champion, same round. Let's give Ngannou another fight to test how good he is and how good AJ was to defeat Ngannou in round 2.
The reason why these cross over fights are happening in the heavyweight division is because todays heavyweights arent very good and the MMA fighters fancy their chances. Cant imagine any MMA fighter doing this if it was prime Lewis or Tyson
The correct thing naganou should have done is start slightly at the lower level of boxing and slowly work his way up than I don,t have a problem with cross over fights, unfortunately money and politics overide that.

@@JackJones-jn4oq if you believe Fury beats Usyk easy, you're either very deluded or not that bright, Fury himself has stated that he struggles against smaller faster opponents e.g Steve Cunningham, and the last southpaw he fought left him a bloody mess Otto Wallin. I get it that Fury's your guy but be realistic.
@Heera89ssR come back to me after the fight and we will have a chat usyk will lose fury wins easy same way I said aj wins easy against Francis I said aj stop him inside 4 rounds he done it in 2 rounds I said before aj boxed Francis he stopes usyk if they fight again and I believe fury gets him usyk out between rounds 8-10 if not easy win for fury 👍
Fury is not a top ten fighter. He will lose to Usyk by an early knockout. Anyway we all know that Joshua will destroy Fury so what’s the point of them fighting.
Dan, don't argue with a fool,from a distance people can't tell who is who!!
Who’s Benn fighting next?
He is scheduled for 17 fights against his mirror, 4 with automatic doors and a crossover with a shopping trolley that still needs a pound coin.
The Easter bunny, so he can get some more eggs.
Is Simon Jordan sort of the sports commentator version of Gordon Ramsay ? I never heard of him.
I like how Hardy carried himself
Dan Hardy does have some valid points this is partly why MMA gets more traction. Very few fighters want to be in 50/50 fights or take tough fights where there is a potential to lose. TBF we can`t blame them, look how much stick Joshua has taken and the overall way he has been treated? Considering he is trying to fight as many top contenders tried many times for Wider and the Fury fight?
In heavyweights the only people that are risking and taking tough fights are Zhang, Parker, Joyce and Joshua. In the lowerweights we have Terrance Crawford, Bertev and Bivol, Cannelo is cherrypicking at the moment and ducking Benevidez, Devin Hayney is fighiting people. But these only make up a handful of people fight top competition I`m sure I have missed a few names but. This is why boxing is having alot of problems. Either no competition fights or in the case of alot of fighters only fighting 1 - 2 times a year with the exception of Canelo and a few others.
Jordan is bang on
TF stated in the ring after his fight with MMA fighter FN that it was THE MOST difficult fight he has had……. AJ obliterated him within two rounds…… This myopic obsession with TF is delusional……
Fury is a total ✊🏼💦
To be the champ you have to beat the champ, Fury beat Klitschko in 2015 and hasn’t been beaten yet in the ring. All the other belts are just belts, lineal is the real champ
AJ was confident against a guy who has never boxed. I’m shocked.
Notice now Eddie and Frank are working together, Simon can’t praise AJ enough. Whereas before he was probably one of his harshest critics.
I have yet to see a pro famous boxer step in to the octagon
James toney, lost very quickly
Go watch on RUclips a nearly 50 year old former WBO boxing champion Ray Mercer starch former UFC heavyweight champion Tim Silvia in 12 seconds in the Octagon.
Mercer hadn’t won a significant fight in 2 decades leading up to it. It’s beautiful.
Absolute nonsense that massive punchers like AJ don’t stand a puncher’s chance in the Octagon.
MMA has punching, boxing doesn't have grappling so it easier for MMA to box.
@@andybirch4934 Toney was punch-drunk, decades past his best and his prime years were spent weighing between 160-168lbs. He was way too past it and way too small.
He’d had 40-odd bouts before Couture had even turned pro. Hardly fair
Hasn't clarissa shields fought 2 mma fights and won one?
When I was young I was very good at karate and fighting. But when I boxed I saw with my own eyes, that I had to stay away from the opponent's arms and reach as real and dangerous as a rattlesnake. I was luckily faster than them on my feet and could stay away and move safely. But I saw and learned that a boxers tools are such a specialty and under their rules, they are the rulers. It is stupid to say that a boxer doesn't have a chance in MMA. He has. Many boxers can fight on the street and many can kick low kicks with tons of power after a few months training and are as strong as MMA fighters. It's very individual. And on the street, there are different rules yet meaning no rules and an MMA fighter could easily run into a hellbent furious different kind of fighter there as we are all bound of rules and perceptions. Just like you can't compare a dancer on ice skaters with an ice hockey player or a floor dancer you can compare different fighter disciplines. They have in time become specialists and anything else would now become depraved. Also dogs want excitement but we are not dogs and so have some self-discipline and do not get out of control neither excitement nor in hate.
Unbelievable that Fury career is still not questioned, his best win never bit an elite boxer but somehow got beaten by a descent boxer knocked out by the slowest boxer ever! This belief in this man is bluffing me.
True, Ngannou was stopped in the second round doesn't take anything from him.
Mike Tyson defeated a world champion, same round.
Let's give Ngannou another fight to test how good he is and how good AJ was to defeat Ngannou in round 2.
Tell em Simon
The reason why these cross over fights are happening in the heavyweight division is because todays heavyweights arent very good and the MMA fighters fancy their chances. Cant imagine any MMA fighter doing this if it was prime Lewis or Tyson
9:58 Deluded ; Fury won't even fight Usyk he's dodged him 3 times why would anyone think that fight occurs?
The correct thing naganou should have done is start slightly at the lower level of boxing and slowly work his way up than I don,t have a problem with cross over fights, unfortunately money and politics overide that.
Yes, boxing has been restored! Becayse AJ beat a 0-1 MMA fighter. Well done.
6:15 have to disagree with Dan there. Heavyweight Boxing has been on fire since the Klitscho era ended. What’s he watching 🤔
Too much adverts 👎
Bloody Hell......I agree with Simon Jordan......
Dan hardy gave him a nice one
Franklin, Helenius, Wallin and Ngannou only the purest would know these are heavyweight boxers and not the back 4 from Juventus.
