Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou are widely considered the best heavyweights in their respective combat sports - but how do they stack up ahead of their fight later this year?
Talks of a fight between the pair have been floating around for years, but they came a reality last year when Ngannou got in the ring with Fury after his knockout win against Dillian Whyte. They had a light-hearted back and forth and suggested a “hybrid-rules” fight, but nothing came of it as Fury went on to fight Derek Chisora later that year.
After Fury’s undisputed heavyweight title clash against Oleksandr Usyk was delayed again, his promoter Frank Warren teased a fight against a “game-changing” opponent. Fans were convinced the hint was about former UFC champion Ngannou and they were right as the clash has now been agreed for October 28 in Saudi Arabia.
