“The Predator” spoke about his life in Europe and how the people complained about everything. Tyson countered that by saying that the people of America complain more. Ngannou explained that when he reached Europe from Africa, he saw the people complaining and not appreciating the things they had. He spoke about health insurance in France and how a person could be treated for free. Tyson replied to that by saying, “In America, if you can’t pay, you better move aside. You would better starve to death”.

Ngannous had a very tough early life. He used to work in sand mines in Cameroon before he moved to Spain. In Spain, he was arrested and had to move to France, where he lived on the streets. He wanted to be a boxer but transitioned to MMA when a stranger offered him money to fight in MMA. These experiences provided the Cameroonian Predator with knowledge and survival skills.
