Francis Ngannou earns boxing respect after opportunity from Tyson Fury

Story from George Onmonya DANIEL

Francis Ngannou has earned the respect of the boxing world all thanks to the Gypsy King, Tyson Fury, who gave him the opportunity.

Mr. Ngannou showed the world he can box, some even believe he won the fight right now. I have no problem with the outcome of the fight. Ngannou will be proud of himself.

He owes all that to Tyson Fury who gave him the opportunity. Now bring on Deotay Wilder or any heavyweight. He is ready. Congratulations to Ngannou.

Francis Zavier Ngannou, born 5 September 1986, is a Cameroonian-French professional mixed martial artist and professional boxer who is currently signed to the Professional Fighters League (PFL).

Ngannou competed in the heavyweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), where he was the reigning UFC Heavyweight Champion at the time of his departure from the promotion.
