No interest in this. People have no idea how good professional boxers are and Fury is the best of the bunch. It's unfathomable what they do with their hands.

I love MMA but it's a totally different gig than boxing.

Wilder is out of this world amazing and Fury picked him apart - what's he going to do with Francis?

Oh well, I guess it's a pay day.

The hybrid glove thing gives Francis a punches chance but that's all it is.

You're 100%. MMA guys have no clue how good top pro boxers are at setting up and executing combos, counterpunching and slipping with and rolling with punches, etc.

Max Holloway and Maybe Masvidal are about the only guys in the UFC that I can even think of who would have been a decent/good level pro boxers. They both have the build for it, too.

Yep, just look at how easily Floyd Mayweather toyed with Connor McGregor when they fought.

Floyd was retired, but a multiple weight division champion who went undefeated in his career and McGregor was good in MMA but was having his boxing debut. Total mismatch from start to finish.
