Fury has confirmed that he will fight Francis Ngannou - but on his terms. Essentially confirming what we knew already via McGregor v Mayweather; an MMA fighter would destroy a Boxer in the first round under MMA rules.
Tyson Fury confirms he will fight UFC champion Francis Ngannou in a 'stand-up bang out' once he has faced both Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua (talksport.com)
What is the F-ing point in this? EVERYONE knows that Ngannou would destroy Fury under MMA rules. First round, 100%.
What's the point in it? Money
I don't think a Francis sideshow fight would draw as much attention & revenue as people think it would. These MMA fighters are small potatoes. Dana would do everything in his power to prevent it also. Fury is just being nice promoting this guy & leaving a door open to see if it actually generates interest.
