Francis Ngannou, the former UFC heavyweight champion, is set to make his pro boxing debut later this year against none other than Tyson Fury, the WBC heavyweight champion. This is a huge crossover fight that has divided the opinions of fans and experts alike. Some think Ngannou has a chance to pull off a stunning upset with his knockout power, while others think Fury is too skilled and experienced for him.
Ngannou knows he has a lot to learn in the sweet science, and he has expressed his interest in getting some advice from some of the legends of the sport, such as Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis. Tyson, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest heavyweights of all time, has responded positively to Ngannou’s request.
In a recent interview, Tyson said he would like to train with Ngannou and help him prepare for his boxing debut. “I’d like to do that. That’d be cool I’d like that, yeah. I’d like that,” Tyson said.
This would be a fascinating collaboration between two of the most fearsome punchers in combat sports history. Tyson has a wealth of knowledge and experience in boxing, having won multiple world titles and fought some of the best fighters of his era. Ngannou has a raw talent and athleticism that could benefit from Tyson’s guidance and tips.
Fury, on the other hand, probably won’t be too concerned about who Ngannou trains with. He is confident in his own abilities and believes he is the best boxer in the world. He has faced and beaten some of the toughest opponents in his division, including Deontay Wilder and Wladimir Klitschko. He will not underestimate Ngannou, but he will also not fear him.
This is a fight that has the potential to be a blockbuster event that will attract fans from both MMA and boxing. It will also be a test of Ngannou’s skills and determination in a new sport. With Tyson on his side, he might have a better chance to shock the world and become a two-sport champion.
