UFC chief Dana White opens door for Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou on one condition

UFC chief Dana White has opened the door to a crossover fight between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou - but has made it clear there's one big condition.

The two heavyweights have both been pushing a fight in the future, with Ngannou recently stating he expects the bout to take place in 2023.

That time-frame is orientated around the fact that both are engaged for the near future, with Fury set to fight in the first quarter of the year, likely against Dillian Whyte, before a potential unification bout that is likely to include a rematch clause.
