#1. Former boxing champion urges Tyson Fury to retire
Former undisputed heavyweight champion Riddick Bowe believes Tyson Fury should hang up his gloves, following his bout against Francis Ngannou/
Fury and Ngannou went head-to-head in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in a bout dubbed the 'Battle of the Baddest'. It featured the lineal heavyweight champion taking on Ngannou, who was making his professional boxing debut in the ring.
What was expected to be a routine win for 'The Gypsy King' proved anything but, however, as 'The Predator' shocked the world with his performance. Francis Ngannou went the distance and toe-to-toe with Fury across all 10 rounds and even dropped the British star in the third-round.
Despite Ngannou's valiant effort, Fury took the victory via a controversial split-decision. A result which many fans and experts felt was wrong.
Following Fury's uncharacteristically poor peformance, Riddick Bowe spoke to Fight Hub TV to give his thoughts on the fight.
According to Bowe, despite Tyson Fury picking up the victory, he should retire from the sport for being taken the distance by the former UFC champ. He said:
“Tyson, he needs to retire. He’s fought a guy who’s had no fights and just turning pro and for a guy that’s got no experience, Tyson Fury should have got him out of there early. He made Tyson look bad. He knocked him down, he hit him with shots. If he don’t have any experience how could he do all that? He made Tyson look bad.
