I actually liked this. Fury looked like trash, but I do think he won. I gave Ngannou 2,3,4 and 8. He showed some really great timing and used a diverse selection of punches effectively, which is not easy against Fury, even on his worst day. Boxing is Ngannou's first passion and I think he debuted well. This could reignite a dull as hell heavyweight division IF the promoters/alphabelts pounce on the excitement properly and keep the curiosity of the MMA fans. There's a lot of cool fights to be made here.
