From what I understand the Fury fight bombed and the novelty has worn off after Joshua knocked him cold. What's the point in any top guy fighting him after that performance? They can't top it, they'd only look foolish by comparison if Ngannou manages to hang in there for a few rounds.
The guy's pro record is 0-2. Basically boxing's CM Punk. He should at least go KO a few cans to improve the optics of someone fighting him again.
What you understand is not important. What the Saudis and Francis' team understand is what matters.
You are free to predict that Francis will never step foot inside the boxing ring again. I am free to predict that you will be very wrong.
I wouldn't bet against Francis boxing again. There's a good chance he will as there's still money left on the table. He just needs to get himself back into title contention.
Yes, I'm not predicting Francis does well in a boxing comeback, I'm just predicting he will attempt one. It's a pretty safe prediction.
