Eddie Hearn Drops Bombshell Fury vs. Ngannou 2 in Works, Saudi Showdown Expected!
In a surprising revelation, Eddie Hearn, the head of Matchroom Boxing, hinted at the likelihood of a blockbuster rematch between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou, stating the bout is likely already sealed and set to unfold after Fury's scheduled two-fight series with Oleksandr Usyk. The news follows their gripping showdown in Saudi Arabia, where Ngannou, known as 'The Predator,' stunned the boxing world by nearly dethroning Fury, the 'Gypsy King,' in their first-ever boxing match.
Ngannou's rise to prominence in boxing became evident after his extraordinary performance against Fury, with talks swirling around potential opponents, including Deontay Wilder and Zhilei Zhang. However, any prospects of a clash with Anthony Joshua were dashed as 'AJ' dismissed the possibility before Fury's bout.
Eddie Hearn's recent remarks on The MMA Hour suggested an already inked deal between Fury and Ngannou for a rematch, potentially following Fury's engagements with Usyk. Hearn expressed attempts to initiate discussions for a Ngannou vs. Joshua showdown but received no response, leading him to speculate on the behind-the-scenes agreement between Fury and Ngannou.
According to Hearn, Ngannou's options for monumental fights boil down to just a few, emphasizing that a rematch with Fury holds immense financial and career implications. With Ngannou's growing stature in the heavyweight division post his clash with Fury, the prospect of a rematch has escalated to become a hot topic in the boxing world.
Hearn suggested a possible timeline, projecting Ngannou's participation in the PFL in 2024 followed by a much-anticipated clash against Fury by year-end. His comments have sparked curiosity among fans, igniting discussions about the potential rematch and its significance in the heavyweight boxing landscape.
The question now lingers: Do fans want to witness Francis Ngannou vs. Tyson Fury 2? The revelation from Eddie Hearn has ignited speculation and anticipation, setting the stage for what could be a seismic rematch in the world of boxing.
