“He Would Murder Tyson Fury”- Joe Rogan Backs Francis Ngannou to “Incapacitate” Tyson Fury in UFC

Joe Rogan recently invited American comedian Yannis Pappas to his podcast the Joe Rogan Experience. They discussed a variety of topics, including politics, MMA, and more. They talked about Khabib Nurmagomedov, and Francis Ngannou among other fighters and Rogan gave his verdict on Ngannou.

Rogan backed Francis Ngannou to be the best MMA fighter in the world right now. While discussing his strength and unmatched power, Rogan delved into his story of reaching the top and left his guest in awe.

All Yannis Pappas could ask Rogan was, “Is he the baddest dude in the world? Like there’s no one in the world that could take him?” To which Rogan responded, “100% 100%, Yes. No one in the world in an MMA Fight.”

He further added that there are talks about him facing two-time boxing heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. He supported the idea of the two having a boxing match, as it would be good for their pockets.

“You know they’re talking about him fighting Tyson Fury in a boxing match, which I fully support just because I want him to make a lot of money,” said Rogan.

However, he also believes that if the two were to face each other in the cage, Ngannou would murder the American professional boxer.

“But, in an MMA fight, he would murder Tyson Fury. It wouldn’t last long. He would kick his legs one or two times and Tyson Fury will be incapacitated. He would clinch him up against the fence, elbow him in the head,” Rogan concluded.

Joe Rogan wants a Conor McGregor style payday for Francis Ngannou

Francis Ngannou (17-3) has had long-standing contractual issues with the UFC. He fought out his contract after his UFC 270 win over Ciryl Gane.

Ngannou is in the conversation for a boxing match against professional boxer Tyson Fury, and Joe Rogan wants him to get a pay raise. Rogan has been a vocal supporter of Ngannou for quite some time and he raised his voice again on his podcast.

During the JRE #119 episode with former UFC champion Michael Bisping, Rogan said he wants the two sides to come to an agreement as quickly as possible. He wanted Dana White to let Ngannou fight Fury and get a “giant, crazy” pay for it.
