If somehow the stars align for Francis Ngannou and Tyson Fury to box each other, Joe Rogan will be watching.
The UFC commentator and podcast host recently gave his thoughts on the matchup, which both UFC heavyweight champion Ngannou and boxing champion Fury have bantered about for weeks on social media. Besides the entertainment value, Rogan likes the idea of the compensation Ngannou will get as an MMA fighter crossing over into boxing.
“I want to see him box because I want to see him get a giant chunk of money – like, Conor McGregor-style, Floyd Mayweather chunk of money,” Rogan said on a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience podcast. “Because when Conor fought Floyd Mayweather, he made $100 million. … I think that’s nice. I’d love to see that. If (Ngannou) fought Tyson Fury, how much money would they be able to make?”
