The British world boxing champion shared his expectations from fighting an MMA fighter.
Francis Ngannou is very athletic and strong, but he won’t have enough speed to fight Tyson Fury. This is what the world super heavyweight champion himself thinks.
According to the British boxer, the MMA fighter could not even hit him quickly, because, according to Fury, he is the most unattainable world champion in history.
“This guy is a great puncher. You can see he’s very big, strong and very well built. But I’ve boxed big punchers before like Wilder and Wladimir Klitschko. The only thing they both have in common is that they have of a powerful blow, but could not deliver it at the right moment.
It’s okay to be a big, powerful puncher and hit an immovable target. But when he is moving, it is quite difficult to hit him with a strong blow. So, you can’t hit what you can’t see. I am the best at what I do because I am the toughest world champion in history. This is a fact.
So yes, I will have problems if Ngannou hits me. But I don’t think he can do it, despite good training. I didn’t think anyone could do it. This is truth. And if someone does this, I will just get up,” Fury was quoted as saying by Boxing Scene.
Let’s remember Fury said before how much Ngannou would make fighting him.
