Tyson Fury backtracked on his retirement announcement within seconds by calling out UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou.
The Cameroonian fighter travelled from his home in Las Vegas to Wembley Stadium to watch Fury brutally knock out Dillian Whyte in London tonight. And when American broadcaster ESPN got Ngannou into the ring, he and Fury appeared to verbally agree to a fight.
In a prior interview with BT Sport, which had happened seconds earlier, Fury had confirmed his long-touted plan to retire from fighting after going unbeaten and defending his heavyweight title on two occasions. But he seems interested in a crossover fight with the hard-hitting UFC champion Ngannou, who is months away from the end of his UFC contract.
