Fury Suggests Ngannou Kneel Before Him

In an interview with the YouTube channel The Stomping Ground, WBC heavyweight champion (over 90,7 kg) Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) shared his thoughts on the fight between Anthony Joshua (27-3, 24 KOs) and Francis Ngannou (0-1), and stated that the Cameroonian boxer owes him for his meteoric rise.

"I think it's a great fight. When I fought Ngannou, everyone thought it was a mismatch, that his chances were 1000 to 1, but he proved everyone wrong, and that's just fantastic for him.

I made him famous, made him a millionaire, and now, thanks to me, he's made a lot of money, so he should thank me. He should get down on his knees and kiss my feet for what I've done for him.

I don't know how his fight with Joshua will end. Honestly, I don't care. What's meant to happen will happen. The better man that night will win. They're heavyweights, right? So, anyone can win. Friday is going to be a brilliant night of boxing, and I'm looking forward to it," Fury said.

The fight between Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou is scheduled for March 8th in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The bout for the undisputed heavyweight title between Tyson Fury and the holder of the WBO, WBA, IBO, and IBF titles, Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs), will take place on May 18th in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
