Dana White is ready to give a lot to get Fury to the octagon. However, Francis Nganou has a strong opinion about this offer.
Continue reading to find out what this drama is about!
Francis Ngannou had nothing but a sarcastic scoff at White’s public offer to Fury. White previously suggested that the “Baddest Man On the Planet” issue be resolved by an MMA match between Fury and UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones inside the octagon. Meanwhile, Fury has wavered over the prospect of battling Ngannou, reaffirming his desire to compete against Jones in a boxing ring.
Furthermore, Francis Ngannou doesn’t care if White offers Fury the world.
Ngannou stated to The Schmo on YouTube that he disregards that matter. Moreover, he emphasized the distinction between Dana White’s statements and Tyson Fury’s desires. He expressed the likelihood of a potential fight with Fury but clarified that no arrangements had been made thus far. Ngannou conveyed that Fury has made it clear that he will not compete in MMA or inside the cage. Ultimately this affirms his intention to engage solely in boxing matches.
Ngannou is also interested in Deontay Wilder, who is presently negotiating to fight Anthony Joshua. Recently, Wilder reiterated his desire for two fights with Ngannou. Accordingly, the former UFC heavyweight champion anticipates that their “advanced” discussions will continue once Ngannou takes care of his business.
Ngannou stated that they had been having conversations earlier that year before the potential fight was announced for December. He mentioned that they intended to delay the fight in order to conclude their business in December. However, he emphasized that they were genuinely interested in a two-fight deal.
Currently, Ngannou is awaiting Wilder’s prospective December fight with Joshua. Nevertheless, “The Predator” insisted it doesn’t mean he won’t fight this year. Ngannou stated that he would be inside the cage in 2024. Also, as for the ring, he wasn’t entirely sure yet. He mentioned that it could still be possible for this year, but nothing was guaranteed. He also mentioned that he would be inside the cage early next year for PFL.
So, are you excited to see “The Predator” back in action? Let us know in the comments!
