John Fury Claims Anthony Joshua vs Francis Ngannou Showdown Will Get Called Off
John Fury, father of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, has made a bold prediction, claiming that the highly anticipated crossover clash between Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou will be called off in the coming weeks. The former two-time unified heavyweight champion is set to face the MMA powerhouse in a lucrative Saudi showdown next month.
Expressing skepticism about the fight's occurrence, John Fury emphasized the risks involved for Joshua, suggesting it's a "mad move." He believes there's a bigger payday down the road for Joshua in a historic Battle of Britain with Tyson Fury, particularly if Tyson beats Oleksandr Usyk.
John Fury remarked, "It's a mad move. I know he's getting well paid for it, but there's a bigger payday down the road with him and Tyson. When Tyson beats Usyk in a minute, that will have been the biggest fight of the century."
If the fight proceeds, John Fury acknowledges Ngannou's capability to pose a significant challenge to Joshua, citing Ngannou's knockout power showcased in his bout against Tyson Fury. He described Ngannou as a "monster" who can bring a whole new level of boxing to Joshua's game.
While Joshua acknowledges the dangers Ngannou presents, he refuses to underestimate his opponent, recognizing Ngannou's boxing skills displayed against Tyson Fury. The outcome of this potential clash remains uncertain, adding further intrigue to the dynamic landscape of the heavyweight division.
