Manager of the holder of three heavyweight belts Alexandra Usika Egis Klimas commented on the fight of the champion in the same division according to the WBC Tyson Fury and mixed martial arts stars Francis Ngannou, which took place on October 28 in Riyadh.

Let us remember that in the competitive confrontation, Fury won by split decision, having been knocked down during the fight.

“I cared about Fury as if he were my fighter. I think he won. It was a close fight, but I saw Tyson win. I was very impressed with Ngannou's skills. Perhaps Fury didn't take him seriously enough.

I'm sure it was difficult for Tyson to prepare because he didn't know how Francis would perform. You won’t be able to find clips of Ngannou’s fights because he’s never boxed before. He came out in full readiness, and therefore did his job well,” Klimas said in an interview with ProBox TV.
