Tyson Fury confidently predicts a knockout victory over Francis Ngannou in their boxing match, dismissing Ngannou's physical power and MMA background.
Tyson Fury has emphatically dismissed any chance of mixed martial arts star Francis Ngannou causing an upset when the pair meet in the boxing ring on Saturday night. Ngannou, who scaled 272.1lbs to Fury's 277.7lbs, looked physically imposing at Friday's weigh-in and is a former UFC heavyweight champion known for his striking - but when he steps into the ring won Saturday he will be boxing professionally for the first time.
'So working to the body and maybe making his head a little bit more vulnerable might be a big key for Ngannou in this one but he's got to take his time. He can't make it too easy for Fury to pick him off as he's moving in and be too reckless.' Ngannou is an unknown quantity as a boxer. Hardy suggests he is going to have to make that a virtue. 'If he'd have faced another boxer before Tyson, his chances would be even slimmer.
