Well-known American promoter Bob Arum admits that the WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury may lose to a mixed martial arts star Francis Ngannou in the event that he does not prepare for the battle properly.
“I think Ngannou poses the same danger as Wilder. Tyson was able to withstand heavy blows from Deontay. But note that Wilder managed to knock Fury down, so this fight could go differently if Tyson is not fully ready,” Arum said in an interview with Boxing News+.
Let us remind you that the meeting of these fighters will take place on October 28 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The British championship belt will not be at stake.
