Tyson Fury gives fight prediction after receiving ominous message from Francis Ngannou and Mike Tyson

Jul 10, 2023

Tyson Fury isn't worried about two of the baddest men on the planet teaming up against him.

‘The Gypsy King’ is currently gearing up to box former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia on October 28.

Ahead of his boxing debut, the prolific MMA knockout artist has put together an elite coaching team that includes ring legend Mike Tyson.

‘Iron Mike’ recently invited Ngannou onto his HotBoxin podcast and together they sent an ominous message to the man they are plotting against.

“We’re coming for you, baby. We’re coming,” Tyson said.

“Oh, we are coming to take everything,” Ngannou added.

Fury reposted a clip of Tyson and Ngannou’s message alongside a defiant response which included a reference to his undefeated 33-0-1 record.

The WBC heavyweight champion replied: “When you come for the king you better not miss Francis Ngannou.

“They’ve all tried, they’ve all failed. I am inevitable Francis.

“The outcome will be the Gypsy King having his hand raised in the Kingdom.”

Fury has every right to feel confident as many regard him as boxing’s best big man after wins over Deontay Wilder and Wladimir Klitschko.

Until recently, Ngannou has been fully focused on MMA.

‘Predator’ is known for his fearsome knockout power, and Tyson recently suggested his fighter punches harder than Wilder - but he’s never actually fought a boxer.

The 36-year-old, who will be a massive underdog on fight night, is already planning his return to MMA and has signed a deal to compete under the PFL [Professional Fighters League] banner.

A victory sets Fury up for an undisputed bout in 2024.

The Englishman will target Oleksandr Usyk if he successfully defends his WBA, IBF, and WBO titles against Daniel Dubois, live on talkSPORT, this Saturday.

Filip Hrgovic is next in line for a shot at Usyk’s IBF belt, but Hall of Fame boxing promoter Frank Warren insists Fury will be facing the Ukrainian or Dubois early next year.

That fight could be on the same card as Anthony Joshua vs Deontay Wilder.
