Tyson Fury vs. Francis Ngannou: Fight Card, Livestream, PPV Price in US and UK

On the 28th of October, WBC heavyweight champion, Tyson Fury will enter the ring against the former UFC heavyweight champ Francis Ngannou. It is a fight that has not been wholly welcomed by the boxing realm but still remains one of the most spoken-about bouts of the year. Critics have noted that a fighter like Fury, with a belt to his name, is fighting Ngannou, who has never before boxed in a professional boxing ring.

The Cameroonian-born fighter, Ngannou, undertakes his maiden fight in the boxing realm after his long stint with the UFC, which collapsed at the beginning of this year. His relationship with its president, Dana White deteriorated owing to the stringent rules the company has in view of its fighters seeking to explore other avenues of combat. In pursuit of more lucrative fights for Ngannou, and a fight date after a long break from the ring for Fury, both are set to clash against each other in a boxing ring in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. But what are the details of the upcoming clash?

With just days left for the big fight, the boxing realm turns its attention toward Saudi Arabia. In a fight of its kind, Tyson Fury will clash against Francis Ngannou as both of them hold very dear intentions behind the fight.

This is Fury’s fight first since his victory over Derek Chisora last year and a massive upcoming fight against Oleksandr Usyk slipping away from him. Ngannou, on the other hand, undertakes this matchup to prove his mettle as an able fighter for his plausible fights in the future.
