Francis Ngannou says Tyson Fury rematch is "all that matters" to him now

Former UFC heavyweight champion, Francis Ngannou wants his next fight to be in the boxing ring against Tyson Fury. Ngannou, who had a close split decision loss to Fury in 2023, was brutally knocked out by Anthony Joshua in his second boxing fight. On the other hand, Fury has suffered back-to-back losses against Oleksandr Usyk.

Ngannou made his return back to the MMA octagon in 2024, where he finished Renan Ferreira in the first round. Currently, it's Joshua who looks more likely to get the Fury fight than 'The Predator'. When asked about the Joshua vs. Fury fight, Ngannou said:

"What I want to see now is Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou. That's all that matters for me now."
