Comments Thread For: Zhilei Zhang Believes Ngannou Deserved Win Over Fury: 'Night of Shame for Boxing'

Its pretty easy to avoid the possibility of such nights of shame too. By...you know....not letting 0-0 in boxing athletes from another sport come in and immediately fight the no1 HW.

Exactly. That should never have been allowed. A lazy out of shape uninspired heavyweight kingpin jeopardized the Boxing community and Boxing became the laughingstock. That is on par with if Tiger Woods had begged an amateur Badminton champion to a Tennis match and was beaten by the amateur Badminton champion.

Emperor Zhang completely washes Fury.

Emperor Zhang has spoken!

people had to listen to fury because he was winning and winning well but now people wont listen to him, now this guy zhang is listened to as hes had a few wins, until he loses and noone will listen to him & so it goes around and around

ZZ spoke nothing but the truth. Despite Greedy Belly's dirty antics, low blow and elbow he couldn't keep Francis off him. It's a big shame they gave the win. A novice in the game disgraced him big time.

Zhang beats Ngannou and Fury on the same night.

Fight fans certainly are fickle, but we had people on this forum claiming Tyson Fury was the HW GOAT having beaten two name fighters (one of them 40 yrs old). Ngannou, a rank amateur, put Fury's career and skills into much needed perspective.

It was a sanctioned professional fight, but it wasn't for the titles. I don't see the problem. Ngannou is a serious athlete and fighter, not some Youtuber.

The more I see Big **** Zhang’s fights and interviews, the more I like him. Hearn should quit chasing this unicorn AJ-Wilder fight and pressure Warren to make AJ-Zhang in London. I’d much rather see that than Benn-Eubank Jr, which Hearn keeps trying to hype as a major “stadium fight.”

Last night ESPN showed the first Ali VS Frazier fight from 1971. So I played the same time the Fury-Ngannou on the computer next to the Ali Frazier fight, it was like night and day , the skills of Ali and Frazier compared to Fury Ngannou was light years apart. Ali or Frazier thousand times better.
