Tyson Fury wins only on points, the debuting rival knocked him to the mat in the third round
British boxer Tyson Fury won the duel against Cameroonian Francis Ngannou by only points. The challenge held in Saudi Arabia was quite good, balanced in all 10 rounds, where both boxers could win it.
Two of the judges gave the win to Fury, while one judge gave the win to Ngannou.
The Cameroonian, who was debuting in the ring, hoped for victory, especially after he threw Fury to the mat in the third round, but he could not succeed.
On the other hand, Fury looked like he wanted to control his rival at distance, winning most of the rounds, but not delivering what was expected.
The strong and aggressive attack of the British man, who mostly kept his energy even though he was not sure of the victory, was missing. Ngannou was aiming for victory, but even with this result he was satisfied, as he wanted to show the world that he knows how to box.
The former world heavyweight champion in mixed martial arts confirmed that he could be a contender in the sport. Tyson Fury remained undefeated with 34 wins and 1 draw in his career, but it seems that his mind was on the challenge with Usyk, present in the stadium.
Ngannou showed grit and resisted until the end, while Fury won without much brilliance, showing that in the ring you cannot be defeated easily.
