The UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou recently expressed his desire to face boxing legend Tyson Fury in the ring, according to Jake Paul’s coach, BJ Flores.
According to Flores, Fury is likely to defeat Ngannou if the fight goes ahead.
Ngannou has one fight remaining on his current UFC contract and has expressed a strong interest in switching to boxing. The Cameroonian recently went back-and-forth with Tyson Fury on Twitter, with both behemoths teasing a potential bout down the line.
In the history of MMA, Ngannou is regarded as one of the fiercest punchers. At UFC 270, ‘The Predator’ will face the biggest challenge of his career in the Ciryl Game before he can make the transition to boxing.
The game has incredible movement inside the octagon and may pose a threat to Ngannou’s belt. Further, Ngannou’s strategy against ‘Bon Gamin’ is likely to be similar to his approach in a boxing match against Fury, who is also known for his flawless movement inside the ring.
