“To jail!”: Joe Rogan suggested punishing the referee of the Ngannou-Fury fight

Legendary UFC commentator, Joe Rogan, has shared his opinion on the result of the boxing match between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou, in which the reigning WBC heavyweight champion scored a controversial split decision victory over the former UFC titleholder.

“Francis Ngannou, who has never fought a boxing match in his life, sent Tyson Fury to a knockdown in the third round and gave him a real beating in the eighth,” Rogan said on another edition of his podcast. “Most people, myself included, thought he should have won by a judges’ decision.”

“As a result, he lost by a one-point difference on one judge’s card, won on another judge’s card, and the third judge should go to jail for giving a 96-93 win to Tyson Fury, which is totally outrageous.”

‘We thought Fury would run him over because he’s a world champion boxer. ‘There’s no way this guy can box me,’ he was saying. Before the fight he even said, ‘It’s time to go to school,’ and after the fight Francis said, ‘You make a de**** teacher'”

By giving a competitive fight to “The Gypsy King”, the Cameroonian spoiled the plans of his opponent, who was going to fight Ukrainian Oleksandr Usik, who holds the WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO world boxing titles, in less than two months after the fight with “The Predator”.

Today the organizers of the match for the crown of the absolute world champion in heavyweight reported that the fight between Fury and Usik is postponed from December 23 to February, however, have not yet announced the exact date.
