Tyson Fury and UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou will fight under standard boxing rules when they meet in a massive crossover fight on October 28.
Fury is currently the WBC heavyweight champion, but won't put his belt on the line when the pair head to the Middle East before Halloween. Ngannou is considered the greatest in his division inside the cage, but dropped his belt when he left the promotion for MMA's No.2 PFL earlier this year.
No titles will be on the line but the fight will be scored by three judges under the 10-point must system over ten rounds of three minutes. It remains to be seen whether or not Fury or Ngannou will have the fight added to their professional records, but with the fight taking place in a regulation ring and being overseen by the commission, it will for all intents and purposes be a pro boxing fight.
