Legendary UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping has told Tyson Fury that he could emulate the financial success of Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather with his own crossover bout.
Fury has been talking up the potential of a meeting with his UFC counterpart Jon Jones, while the former heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou who never lost the belt is also keen to get in the ring with the Brit. And his fellow Manchester native Bisping has told him that he could be facing a massive payday for such a bout.
McGregor and Mayweather both pocketed over $100million for their clash in the summer of 2017, but no such crossover has drawn the eyeballs or pay-per-view numbers since. However, with Fury currently the world's top heavyweight in boxing, there would be huge interest in seeing him against MMA's best.
