The big boys are going to be out and swinging for glory tomorrow on one of the most anticipated cards we’ve talked about in awhile.
This is really, really exciting. Francis Ngannou is making his biggest paycheck yet as he merges into the boxing ring to take on one of the greatest heavyweight boxers we’ve seen. Tyson Fury is a large, scary man. Despite his size, Fury moves like he’s 180 pounds. Of course, he’ll need to rely on this movement to deal with the powerhouse that is Francis Ngannou. There’s plenty of action before that, though.

Clear the schedule and get ready to catch one of the biggest cross-over matches of all time. Tyson Fury is the WBC heavyweight champion and one absolutely incredible boxer. Tomorrow night, he’ll be taking on a unique, but not exactly foreign test. That test is Francis Ngannou.
Francis is no stranger to holding gold himself. After suffering two consecutive losses in the UFC, he really worked on his cardio. He then had a back up plan for if an early knockout never materialized. Ngannoue avenged his loss to Stipe Miocic by knocking him out in devestating fashion three-years later.
Will Francis be able to find Tyson’s chin, though? That’s the big question. Yeah, we’ve seen fury go down. Tyson has fought some of the heaviest hitters that currently compete, but Ngannou is a different animal. This isn’t a full-on fight and that plays into the favor of Fury. Tyson only needs to worry about the hands, which is something he’s made a living off of doing at the highest level.
