“Fury Already Found His Next Opponent”: After Announcing His Fight With Francis Ngannou, Tyson Fury Gets Trolled by Fans for Sparring With a MMA Fighter

Tyson Fury’s next opponent has caused a stir in the boxing world. As soon as this year started, he teased the boxing fraternity with an undisputed title fight against Oleksandr Usyk. However, he failed to make the fight come to fruition and the excitement of fans turned to disappointment. But that disappointment turned into frustration after the WBC heavyweight champion announced his next fight against Francis Ngannou.

Ngannou is a known figure in the combat sports world renowned for his tenacity, power, and ferocious style of fighting. Not to mention, the MMA fighter is the former UFC heavyweight champion. However, Ngannou is far from being an out-and-out boxer. In fact,  he is yet to make his debut in the squared circle. And the fight against Fury, the undefeated heavyweight champion, will be his first professional bout. 

From Uysk to Ngannou, many boxing fans were livid at Fury’s decision. On paper, the bout does not appear to be competitive and fails to excite a significant section of the boxing world. If not Usyk, most fans expected the champion to face formidable contenders in the field of boxing.

In a recent video, the ‘Gypsy King’ was seen in the ring— sparring a MMA fighter who is evidently smaller than him in size. Amidst the current narrative of Fury dodging formidable competition, some fans grabbed the opportunity to critique him even further.
