Let's be honest. Tyson Fury is the #1 or #2 heavyweight boxer in the world right now because the best black athletes have gone to basketball, football, and other sports. He struggled with Ngannou because there aren't freak athletes like him in boxing anymore. If boxing was still the #1 sport for top black athletes in America like it was during Ali and Foreman's day, Fury wouldn't be anywhere near the top heavyweight boxer in the world.

Truth

Fury probably thought he could dance around for 4 or 5 rounds and let Francis tire himself out then Fury could toy with him. Probably the biggest thing Fury underestimated was his stamina.

What a bunch of race-baiting nonsense. The fight game, boxing or MMA, doesn't give one shite about skin color. Wilder was no less of an athlete than Ngannou and Fury took him out.
