I have watched even lower level Heavyweights call this guy out, domestic level UK fighters 'And Derek Chisora has also been game for the Ngannou fight'.
Note: It does seem like Ngannou only wants to fight Tyson Fury 'And I believe this is because? Stylistically when you really analyse the fight. Maybe Fury is actually the best highest level fight for Ngannou 'Fury is not a power puncher, and technically is a clumsy fighter'. It was those two traits of Fury's game which enabled Ngannou to come into the fight with a basic solid tactic, and perform very well to his credit.
Fighters such as Joshua, Wilder, Zhang 'If Ngannou was to start playing around with those guys? Then he would really be launching a attack upon the Heavyweight division and boxing'.
Ngannou deserves big credit for his performance vs Tyson Fury 'I believe he has received that credit in mass, he has a WBC ranking and is a wanted man in the division'.
Nobody is avoiding Ngannou Thack, I don't think the top Heavyweights are petrified of him 'Which was a tactic you used to make Tyson Fury look better in the aftermath of their fight'.
I will say one thing mate, Fury should of really made his fight vs Ngannou a 12 round fight 'I think in that kind of fight, Fury would of maybe been able to fight his way back into the fight more. Neither fighters endurance looked that great, but Fury does grind and push through in a distance fight.
Ngannou ether stays fighting at a high level in the Heavyweight division, and maximizes his rewards or he drops down many levels and risks being beaten by a domestic or European level fighter 'Ngannou has to make a decision' A difficult one in a dangerous division, even if this era of Heavyweights are skill for skill under-par etc.

Nobody is rushing to fight Zhang after he knocked out a guy people thought could not be knocked out.JakeTheBoxer likes this.

Zhilei Zhang is a genuine, pedigreed pro, and I've been following his progress for many years now, even becoming the lone voice here warning people not to "sleep on the Big ****" prior to his dismantlings of the Juggernaut Joe Joyce.
Ngannou is a life long boxer who took his skills into MMA and re-educated fight fans about what a prime cross trained boxer does to grapplers and kickers, instead of the traditional official amateur career and can-crusher early pro career to prepare himself for contendership.
Still, we cannot know exactly how seriously the charismatic and unpredictable Tyson Fury took the Ngannou fight, and the Jury's still out on how good he'll turn out to be.
I'm betting that if held in December, Zhang would further Ngannou's education with surprising ease.

No, i think Inoue is No1 pfp. But i was saying Zhang is a monster like inoue.
I agree with you about Inoue.
Zhang looked good against Joyce.
And I ranked Joyce highly. But i'm not so sure that it wasn't just the case of slow ass JJ being taylor made for ZZ.
Glad ZZ's calling out the big names.
He'll get a chance to cement himself as one of the top HW's soon enough.

Well overrated fighters always make someone look more than they are. Wlad and wilder made fury more than he was, until Francis bought people down to earth.
Now it's time for someone to best the overrated monster Inoue........I mean zhang
Inoue, however, is certified great +++. People are complaining about ‘e-mail champs’ whilst this dude has been tearing through world champions across multiple divisions like they’re nothing.

To be honest, Ngannu should only seek big money boxing matches. No point in boxing to prove anything. His move to pro boxing was financially motivated, no other reason. He got lucky with goofy ass Fury not taking him seriously. He won’t have that same luck with other boxers because now they know to be serious. Especially Fury.
