This is the AJ that brought boxing back in the UK with massive stadium fights. The most electrifying fighter in the sport when he's at his best!

[@Lord_of_the_Pies]

Great job by aj. He clowned Francis and sent him back to the D leagues

[@rjim1]

Definitely man and contrary to popular opinion I honestly think Fury is tailor made for him! Fury is a big target and I don't think he has the legs anymore to keep out of the way. He has to get through Usyk yet and that could be a challenge.

[@DC-op8fs]

Relax he beat a 37 yr old MMA fighter with 1 boxing match

[@Lord_of_the_Pies]

@@DC-op8fs he beat every mma fan who was gassing up francis

[@hikidunm1582]

​@DC-op8fs Francis was part of the Cameroon amateur national team for years way b4 AJ started boxing. Most bets went on him. Many UFC fans didn't respect AJ's power. DC, Joe Rogan & many more had FN destroying AJ. You can't have it both ways.

[@nathanmiller9918]

That overhand was monstrous...and AJ is a class act.

[@wilsonjoshwilson]

Francis fell the same way Stipe did in their fight. Same round as well. Combat sports is just weird at times.

[@BrandonBreathes]

very different sports . 0 similarities . not even 1 .

[@brendondowdy5651]

Correct. The only crazy thing is people who thought this was shocking.

@@DGillian6406 Dude, you're just hating. He was a world champion in ufc. Defended his belt. Said he wasn't willing to be chained to the ufc regardless of the money they threw at him. left the ufc and arranged two high profile fights against the very best boxers in the heavy weight division. He's rightfully admired and respected by literally millions of people. what are you on about?

[@DGillian6406]

@@Jahzilla. I was a big fan of his in the UFC! His MMA fans made him and he dumped us to go fight his delusional boxing fantasy dream! Now he’s stuck with the PFL where nobody’s watching! It’s not hate, it’s Francis getting what he deserved! He never belonged in the ring with AJ!

[@318fugaizy6]

Lukes reaction to the KO was pure gold 😂😂😂

[@kellyoubre9778]

Francis needed to be humbled, dude got too cocky in the press conference. Should’ve been grateful boxing welcomed him with open arms and are giving him the biggest payday ever! It was his dream to be a boxer and AJ made it come true🤣 There’s levels to this and back to mma you go. YOU CANT PLAY BOXING!🥊🔥

Unreal how Ngannou got folded

[@MrGreglarry]

He was out on his feet. But when the ref asked him to walk to his right ... he responded right away. So the ref thought he was ok to continue. He was not. He just stood there. He could comprehend a simple command but he could not react to high-speed athletics.

[@tiffanyshriver]

Thank you! The best watch along…you actually describe specific actions and details , while also some emotions. Far superior to others that only hoot and holler. Appreciate your work!

[@FrankAndersonFilm]

Well, Luke. Time to get Dewey back on to explain this.

[@whisky_icarus8731]

He got tired because AJ was working his body. AJ knew Francis gain to much weight and that mean no discipline. He got him tired and that made it easier to sleep him clean. All he had to be is patient. It was over at the weight in when we found out he was 270. Anytime Francis comes in that heavy, he loses.

[@dylvasey]

It's only Americans who thought this would end any other way. Same with Wilder. You guys tend to get into a frenzy without actually looking at the facts.

[@shawnhawes7545]

MMA needed to be humbled by boxing.

[@DGillian6406]

We all know mma wins in the street! Im glad Francis got KO’d but his line to Fury yesterday was 💯 true

[@CincySupercar]

He folded just like Rashad vs Machida

[@spz8342]

Like Stipe

[@christopherreynolds9254]

Easiest night’s work ever for AJ. Real light work.

Great commentary man I love it!

[@northwestpicker3551]

A.J just single handedly restored the credibility of boxing as a martial art.

[@visar1995]

It wasnt combo it was single shot

[@madam9736]

People forget that Joshua hits like a truck. People who have sparred AJ and Wilder have said that Wilder is always sharp power. Whereas, AJ is just thudding power.

[@ralliekid]

Loving this Luke. I’m more of an MMA guy so having this watch along is making me care more about a boxing match I would only be watching for the historic implications of this massive fight, and some overall solid combat oriented entertainment.

[@ravk5266]

Jesus Christ! I am literally still in shock😲 Francis looks concussed and this will change him forever🙈 Really sad to see and hope he rests and heals his 🧠

[@rockysloan3434]

I can’t for the life of me figure out why people are shocked! This dude is not a top boxer, and never was.

@@ravk5266 only he didn’t beat fury. Fury came in at the heaviest he had ever been, and still boxed his ears off. Francis landed one left hook and you nut huggers hold on to that. Francis is 0-2 and if he fights anyone else in the top 10 he will lose again.

[@deanobrien2021]

Fury never took it serious until he felt ngannous power , I think fury beats usyk and we finally settle AJ vs Fury

[@alcottdevalte7440]

Joshua has a better resume than Fury and Wilder. Was hoping that Francis would use the clinches against Joshua and improve his defensive abilities but the right hand from Joshua in round 1 changed everything.

Yep, Ngannou's success against Fury was just a Chuck Wepner moment. Too many got sold on Ngannou's durability and punching power without considering AJ's own punching power and skills.

[@DocBrewskie]

All of a sudden everyone that was so confident are screaming it was fixed.

[@Alex-cw3rz]

2:12 doesn't sound cold now does it. The first serious punch AJ threw and Francis is on the canvas in 10oz of padding, imagine that in 4oz of padding Francis would have been knocked out. In bare knuckle he'd have been hospitalised.

i'm usually pretty stoic about MMA results but i haven't been this bummed since Wanderlei and Big Nog got ko'd in the same night

[@TheDXJC56]

They should've called it after the second knock down he didn't really get back up before the 10 count, but if they had it would've been called an early stoppage by so many, this makes it definitive even if it probably could've been avoided
