Dewey Cooper, the coach of UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou, is confident that his fighter can defeat Tyson Fury in a boxing fight.
“Fury is now the best boxer in the world and will be a tough opponent for any fighter. However, with the necessary preparation and some changes in the training process, Francis is able to fight any heavyweight.
"He is capable of this because he has power. In boxing gloves he will have a little less power - in such details, there is a difference. Francis can box and he is capable of defeating someone like Fury one day. It is only necessary to change his training for the boxing format," Cooper said in an interview to RT Sport.
Earlier Ngannou has repeatedly made it clear that he is interested in a duel with Fury. The "Gypsy king", in turn, said that the fight with the Cameroonian was easy money for him.
