Jake Paul has been encouraged to crack open the cheque book and entice Tyson Fury to the PFL's smart cage for his proposed hybrid rules fight with Francis Ngannou.
Former UFC star Dan Hardy believes that if Fury wants to get into a cage with Ngannou, even for a standard boxing match with the pair wearing 4oz gloves, the PFL would be the right organisation to house the bout. Paul is involved as a co-founder of their new 'super-fight division' on pay-per-view,so there could be a real chance of making such an event happen.
PFL is broadcast on ESPN+ in the US, where Fury has a broadcast deal, while Ngannou is a free agent after leaving the UFC as their heavyweight champion. Hardy reckons that it could be a massive opportunity for the rising promotion, believed to be MMA's No.2 after the UFC, to cement its place in combat sports.
