Teixeira: “Ngannou shut the mouths of boxers who don’t know anything about fighting”

Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Glover Teixeira praised the former title holder of the division above Francis Ngannou for his debut in professional boxing.

Let us remind you that on October 28, Ngannou lost only by a split decision to WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, managing to score a knockdown during the fight.

“Francis... damn it, brother! The performance surprised me, surprised the world and silenced boxers who know nothing about fighting. They make a lot of money, so they think they're tough, that an MMA fighter won't stand a chance.

Who really has no chance is a boxer who dares to fight under MMA rules, as James Toney did against Randy Couture. MMA fighters are the new generation of gladiators. Nobody trains like us,” Sherdog quotes Teixeira as saying.
