It is natural to be a little afraid of breaking a bone when you are facing one of the most powerful punchers from the UFC world. Tyson Fury is scheduled to face former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou on October 28 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Additionally, Fury is contractually obligated to have an undisputed Heavyweight championship bout with Oleksandr Usyk on December 23 after the Ngannou fight.

While the odds seem to be leaning in Fury’s favor, Mike Tyson backs Ngannou. In an interview with Boxing Social, ‘Gypsy King’ has explained what his approach will be for the Ngannou fight. Let us hear him out.

Tyson Fury is ready and prepared to take on the Heavyweight champion of the MMA world. He could not care less about Ngannou injuring him. He will not be holding himself back at any cost, even if he has to lose a limb. Even though there is no involvement of a belt, Fury is going all in to win this fight. He intends on giving his fans a brilliant show by inflicting some serious damage upon the ‘Predator’.

“If I have to get my arm chopped off the next day after beating in Ngannou, then I’ll have to do it. That’s it. I will do everything necessary to win on the night pulling, no punches. I want to inflict a lot of damage or a lot of pain on him and that’s what I’m looking at doing.” said Fury. The WBC Heavyweight champion losing to a debutant would not sit well with critics. So, Fury will be defending his status with everything he has.

What is on the line for the ‘Gypsy King’?

The upcoming bout with Francis Ngannou serves as a warm-up for Fury, allowing him to shake off any ring rust and prepare for the faster, smaller Usyk. While Fury is the favorite, there’s always an element of risk in consecutive fights. Although many doubt Ngannou’s chances, surprises can happen in the heavyweight division.
