Contender for interim heavyweight belt Tom Aspinall commented on the debut fight of the former division champion Francis Ngannou in professional boxing.
Let us remember that on October 28, Ngannou lost by split decision to Tyson Fury. The Cameroonian surprised the martial arts world by giving the WBC heavyweight champion a tough fight and knocking him down during the confrontation.
"I was shocked. As someone who has been with Fury for a long time, I couldnāt believe it. You have to give Ngannou a lot of credit for what he did. He believes in himself so much that this whole story is inspiring. He came back from where he came from, gave up the UFC and took the money. Everyone thought he would lose, including me. And he did it superbly, we have to give him credit,ā the Briton said in an interview with TalkSport.
