Viewers will criticize Tyson less for the “not real” fight with Ngannou, and will evaluate his form more in the context of the confrontation with the Ukrainian
Former world super middleweight champion Carl Froch shared his thoughts on why the fight for the title of absolute world heavyweight champion between Tyson Fury And Alexander Usik was announced so early, before the fight of the “Gypsy King” with ex-UFC champion Francis Ngannou.
“The Fury-Ngannou fight is not real boxing, but I think that now we are beginning to understand why the fight against Usik was announced in advance. I think this may have been Frank Warren’s cunning plan. It was he who organized the fight with Ngannou, which boxing supporters are not very happy about. But at the same time he announced that Tyson Fury will fight Alexander Usik.”
“So people will be watching the Ngannou fight, keeping an eye on Tyson’s form, thinking about what will be around the corner when his next fight takes place in a short time.”
Previously, Froch shared his forecast for the future match between the British and Ukrainian champions. In his opinion, Fury is the favorite, but if he approaches the fight irresponsibly, Usyk will win without any problems.
At the end of September, it became known that Usik and Fury signed a contract for a fight for the title of absolute world champion in the heavyweight category. It was reported that the fight is planned to take place on December 23 or January 2024 in Saudi Arabia. It is planned that the exact date of the event will be announced after the fight of the “Gypsy King” with Francis Ngannou.
The 10-round fight between Fury and Ngannou will take place on October 28 in Saudi Arabia. The WBC title will not be on the line.
