Simon isnt a boxing purist. He just wants an argument 😂

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.

Dan came across exceptionally well there. Simon needs to wear looser boxer shorts, seemed very on edge and unnecessarily angry.

AJ best heavyweight in Britain and has continuously fought the best and can hold his head high

Oh dan, you are too sensible to be on here with these two.

Simon needs to show a little more respect. Dan is a good guy, knows his stuff, no need to offend like that

Simon just loves arguing didn’t have to be that offensive for Dan Hardy

Dan held his own.

People talk about Simon but that Jim is just if not more deluded…😂😂😂

Simon can cause a fight in an empty room

Notice how Simon referred to joshua as contender instead of saying former 2 time World champion and Olympic gold meddalist

Did Simon have this energy when Fury fought Nganou?

Why people are hardly talking about Usyk now is beyond me 🤷‍♂️

AJ reduced Ngannou to one of those punching machines you see in an arcade that you play to see how hard you can punch.

Tyson ain't beating Uysk 😂

Dan comes across really well, top bloke

Lifetime boxing fan! Dan!...Massive respect brother ✌️❤️

Great interview. I like the way they disagreed and agreed.

Dan’s too polite for Simon, get Bisping sometimes here will ya!!!😂

Great interview.

Dan held that together well 👏🏾 Simon being Simon 🥱 😅

Simon doesn't let anybody get 3 words in these days, he's too much. His Mrs does the same on GB News.

Great analysis from Graeme 😂

Im glad Ngannou got humbled, started getting big for his boots.

6:00 Fury wasnt "mandated" to fight Ngannou ; he did so for the green

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.

Simon the kinda guy everybody wants to knock out

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

Spot on Simon

What an intriguing interview. 😂

Graeme Souness question at the end it was gold: “Do you really believe that Fury will beat Usyk?”.

My favourite KO ever, so definitive, especially with all the background behind this fight!!! 💀🥊

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

Souness busy on his phone watching very specific Star Trek Next Gen clips 😉

I forgot sounes was there. Lol.

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 🥊

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.

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.

Beating an mma guy brings reestablished credit. Lol

Amazing that talksport and Simon actually think their opinions matter. Only one that gets turned on is Jim"i think we can all agree"whyte

Best outcome for boxing.

Best brain in mma

Gotta say Dan came off really well there

Simon Jordan........the mans never been wrong in his life and is the oracle of all knowledge!

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!

I’ve heard more atmosphere at snooker that know joke 😂

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.

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 UKposts generation.

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.

At least Ngannou has some money now. He wasn’t even wearing shoes when he fought in ufc.

We need to see AJ vs Martin Bakole

Sometimes I like to watch UKposts videos between my adverts.

Jordan is bang on

Thr disrespect shown by Simon Jordan is embarrassing. Firstly poking Dan Hardy, then ending up on his knees for him. Make your mind up 😂

Simon is %100 right

This is why ngannou needs to fight again. To prove people wrong. AJ could have easily starched any top heavyweight too

AJ should just fight hergovich and then whyte/parker instead of just waiting on fury to fight usky twice

for the people that thought francis would win keep the same energy lmao including you dan

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.

He's the Piers Morgan of sports😂

Dan hardy is the Paul breach of MMA

Simon: I’m not watching. I’m not watching. I’m not watching. Also Simon: Of course I watched it because I knew we’d be talking about it. So lame.

Classy Dan Hardy

AJ did say after the win he still wouldn't fight Ngannou on a Sunday lol

Tell em Simon

Bloody Hell......I agree with Simon Jordan......

AJ was confident against a guy who has never boxed. I’m shocked.

Is Simon Jordan sort of the sports commentator version of Gordon Ramsay ? I never heard of him.

Did the wbc mandate the ngannou fight? Tyson kept calling him out from what I remember

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 ❤

“Best in the division” This fake narrative that Simon Jordan keeps spouting like it’s a fact will soon come to an end.

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.

The ammount of disrespect to usyk is insane 😂

Dan, don't argue with a fool,from a distance people can't tell who is who!!

Notice now Eddie and Frank are working together, Simon can’t praise AJ enough. Whereas before he was probably one of his harshest critics.

Who’s Benn fighting next?

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

Well said Dan Hardy. Don't even try to convince these dinosaurs to see sense.

Dan hardy gave him a nice one

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.

It’s like saying I like racquet sports so I want to see Djokovic play the world badminton champion at tennis.

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.

Franklin, Helenius, Wallin and Ngannou only the purest would know these are heavyweight boxers and not the back 4 from Juventus.

I like how Hardy carried himself

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.

It’s dangerous, imagine it would have death from a 1000 cuts

"Joshua did great" Every MMA fan: If AJ stepped into the Octagon. Gtfo here with that. Your boy got humiliated

Too much adverts 👎

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.

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.

I have yet to see a pro famous boxer step in to the octagon

Big ups to Simon! Dan Hardy, get out of here! Heavy weight boxing is not a popularity contest!!

That Fury fight gave Ngannou and his team to much false confidence. All build up they questioned his chin but didnt once question if Ngannou could take AJs power. After the first knockdown you could see the gameplan go out of the window. Ngannou was scared to get hit which was why he reacted to every feint by AJ.

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.

It’s doesn’t matter how prepared Fury should have been, he was never going to fold Francis like that, he landed his best shots and nothing happened. Mike Tyson would show up to fights haven’t not trained to the best of his ability and he still starched people. In addition to that Francis hadn’t competed in a year and 9 months and was coming out of 2 knee surgeries. Fury the so called “greatest of all time” has no excuse.

No1 wants to avoid Zhang. U casuals forget he only beat Slow Joyce

6:15 have to disagree with Dan there. Heavyweight Boxing has been on fire since the Klitscho era ended. What’s he watching 🤔

All of you thought ngannou had a chance deep down, that aged well

Yes, boxing has been restored! Becayse AJ beat a 0-1 MMA fighter. Well done.
