Former UFC star Gegard Mousasi has warned Francis Ngannou he would struggle against Tyson Fury if the pair were to meet in a highly anticipated crossover fight.
The UFC heavyweight champion left the promotion on top, but hasn't fought since January of last year due to injury, with the promotion opting instead to crown a new champion in Jon Jones. He has been entertaining offers around the boxing world as well as in MMA, but as yet has not decided on his next move.
Mousasi, who similarly left the UFC while one of the top middleweights in the world back in 2017, decided to make Bellator his home and was rewarded with massive payouts and two world titles. But he fears Ngannou may be looking for a major fee, which could only be attained in a dangerous crossover to boxing.
