Amid Talks of $10,000,000 Plus Purse, Khabib Nurmagomedov Hands a Brutal Reality Check to Francis Ngannou Ahead of Tyson Fury Super Fight – “I Don’t See Anyone That Can…”

Khabib Nurmagomedov recently shared his thoughts on the highly-anticipated showdown between Francis Ngannou and heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury. The announcement of their upcoming clash, scheduled for October 28 in Saudi Arabia, has sparked excitement among combat sports enthusiasts. However, it’s worth noting that while the fight will impact both fighters’ records, Fury’s coveted WBC title will not be up for grabs. Despite this being Ngannou’s boxing debut, reports suggest that the former UFC heavyweight champion is set to rake in an astonishing eight-figure income of over $10,000,000 from this bout alone.

Such a lucrative payday speaks volumes about the magnitude of this event. However, even with the hype surrounding the fight and the significant financial gain awaiting Ngannou, ‘The Eagle’ cast doubt on the Cameroonian-French fighter’s ability to hold his own against ‘The Gypsy King’.

‘The Eagle’ stated, “Tyson Fury, this guy is the best right now. I think Tyson Fury is on a different level in boxing,”

He further added, “In boxing, I don’t see anyone that can touch his face, maybe [Oleksandr] Usyk. Usyk is going to be his toughest challenge for Tyson Fury.”
