Tyson got the decision and regardless whether he actually did enough to win, he absolutely lost.

The media is all about Ngannou and its all they want to talk about. Everyone wants to know what Francis is doing next. 

Happy for him. UFC made an obvious mistake not helping him crossover.

He might have gotten robbed on the cards but Francis just made his pro debut at 37, against the HW champion, and took it to a split, how Is the Heavyweight champion of boxing getting fraud checked? Super impressed by Francis though

Predictions: 7 of 7 Winners, 0 Perfect, 350 Points   |   Tied for 634th

This fight set off a series of events. I can see a lot of things playing out right now...
1. FRANCIS boxing career is going to be amazing. He'll get all close decisions for life.
2. UFC just died. There's a teenager out there that watched this fight and is making it their mission to combine all combat sports under one banner, that provides all medical insurance. They will use money from the Paul brothers to get it started.
3. JON JONES is retiring today or fighting until he dies, because he can't do what FRANCIS can do. He will forever be the guy that SOME people call the GOAT, but not ALL people consider the GOAT. FRANCIS is da GOAT!!!
4. DANA WHITE will be the CEO of a slap fighting league that takes place in local bars. He will get drunk one night and slap his wife. FRANCIS will be there and witness it. He will smile and slap DANA into unconsciousness. JON JONES will be there and come to DANA's aid. FRANCIS will smile again, and slap JON JONES into unconciousness. FRANCIS...THE BADDEST MAN ON THE PLANET🌎

Huge W for MMA and Francis

Predictions: 7 of 7 Winners, 0 Perfect, 395 Points   |   Tied for 296th

Showing everything is possible with hard work, to go out there and fight the best HW on the planet and drop him and land more power shots, Sure Fury landed more shots but he barely landed with any meaningful impact, he even landed a elbow which should have been a point deduction but ref missed it clearly. Imo Francis won this fight. I picked Fury to win even but honestly Francis edged it out with just landing more damaging shots

I know that styles make fights but I am actually curious how come one of all time heavyweight greats lose to a 37 year old debiutant who hasnt even trained mma as long as fury did train boxing? Isn't HW boxing a ****hole at the moment? Shouldnt every top 50 boxer easily outbox an mma fighter at their own discipline theyve been training for whole live?

@Socalryno89 
hey bro I have been hearing francis talk about him vs. wilder happening in MMA, imagine what Francis would do to him in MMA. He would probably kick his legs out and chop him up like a tree. I would definately watch that fight. these two monsters in 4 ounce gloves. Any fight with Francis will sell a lot of PPVS

I just wanted to repost to show how wrong I was 

"This is now just a joke, Francis wants a big pay day, he has no chance. How is this man going to defeat Fury? Anyone knows he doesn't even have a PUNCHERS chance, look at who he has beat in MMA and consider most are retired or have numerous knock out losses. 

Fury has been in there with heavyweight boxers, not heavyweight MMA fighters past their prime. Considering Francis average fight is one to two rounds, I'll give him a bit but Fury finishes late and they made this 10 rounds. A complete joke of a fight."


but  I love being proved wrong if i am ****y and yeah
