Carl Froch lays into Tyson Fury, claims his legacy is in ‘tatters’

Carl Froch has launched an attack on Tyson Fury’s performance against Francis Ngannou last Saturday night.

Fury just about scraped by the MMA fighter, scoring a highly controversial split-decision win.

But former Super-middleweight world champion, Carl Froch believes the ‘Gypsy King’ was fortunate to get the nod from the judges.

Speaking on his YouTube channel ‘Froch On Fighting’ he said:

“Ngannou boxed brilliantly, I thought he won by 2/3 rounds… and with the knockdown I thought he deserved to get his hand held at the end of the night. Ngannou outmuscled (Fury) he was probably too strong for him.”

Fury vs Oleksandr (is signed) that’s the reason I think Ngannou didn’t get the nod. It’s corruption at the highest level.”

Froch also took aim at Fury’s recent comments when he declared he didn’t care about his legacy in the sport.

Froch continued: “It’s a good job he’s not, because at the minute his legacy is in tatters.”
