Francis is still a gangster. Fighting 2 of the best HW's in the era in his first 2 professional boxing matches. This one did...not...go his way, though.
One of the announcers even said early on that Francis likes to try and parry with his right hand and he was biting on every feint. I think AJ took advantage of that on all 3 of the knock downs.
I'd imagine there will be some questions about Fury now. I think Fury f***ed around a little too much with Francis and AJ came in there as a stone cold assassin, but still.
