Fuming fans claim Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou is 'RIGGED' as Gypsy King secures hugely controversial points win | The Sun

BOXING fans including Gary Lineker slammed Tyson Fury's controversial points win over Francis Ngannou.

Fury walked away with a split-decision over ex-UFC champion-turned boxing debutant Ngannou.

Within the first three rounds, he was cut and dropped as the stunning upset appeared to be on the cards.

Ngannou put on the performance of his life as he took Fury the ten-round distance and had him hurt and in trouble on several occasions.

One judge scored the bout 95-94 in his favour but the deciding two officials had it 96-93 and 95-94 for Fury, 35.

Fans were left outraged online and claimed Ngannou, 37, was "ROBBED" of a shock victory.

England football legend Gary Lineker posted: "We’ve just seen a robbery."

Boxer Chris Eubank Jr added: "Watching from ringside I thought Ngannou won the fight.

"It was close but he was the aggressor, landed heavier shots & scored a knockdown.

"Fury deserved to lose after having so much trouble against a man who has never boxed before… too much time filming Netflix specials not enough time in the gym I’m guessing. Unlucky Francis."
