“He would get killed”- Francis Ngannou says Tyson Fury wouldn’t dare accept an MMA fight against him
Francis Ngannou on Tyson Fury
Francis Ngannou has an ultimatum he is to face at the end of the year that could change his career trajectory. UFC’s heavyweight champion is trying to renegotiate his contract with the UFC, and he wants a special clause that would allow him to compete in boxing matches as well.
Ngannou is probably the baddest man on the planet, and he believes he’s not getting paid enough for his services in the UFC. Boxing’s heavyweight champion, Tyson Fury would make around £20 Million for his next fight against Dillian Whyte, and Ngannou got only $600,000 for his last title defense against Ciryl Gane.
Ngannou’s journey from in a Sand Mine to becoming a UFC champion is nothing but unbelievable, and most critics expected him to lose his last title defense against Ciryl Gane. Not only did Ngannou dominate him, but he also showed a different part of his game and utilized his wrestling to get the job done.
“It could be in a phone booth or in a rooftop”- Francis Ngannou doesn’t care about the nature of his fight against Tyson Fury
He’s out from action following a knee injury. He underwent surgery, and it went really well. Ngannou wants to test his boxing skills against, Fury, and ‘The Gypsy king’ is interested in the fight as well. Fury openly claimed he would retire after defending his belt against Dillian Whyte, but he would fight Ngannou in some kind of a special event.
Ngannou talked about this fight in his recent YouTube video, and he doesn’t care about the format of this fight, he just knows Fury wouldn’t dare to fight him inside an octagon. He said, “I don’t really care about what it would be, I just think it would be a fight. Against Tyson Fury, it could be in a phone booth or in a rooftop, that fight will happen. Obviously he won’t come to MMA, that’s not something that could happen. He would get killed.”
