The storm surrounding the boxing match in Riyadh, in which the best heavyweight of today, Tyson Fury, won the former MMA champion, Francis Ngannou, by an unexpectedly difficult and split decision of the judges, does not subside.
Nganu hit harder, Fury was saved by experience and skill in the ring.
"This was one of the best events I have attended. Fury was not the fighter we are used to seeing, but he was still smart enough to celebrate in a dramatic duel. This is also a great prelude for the absolute champion in the Fury-Alexander Usyk match in Saudi Arabia ", the president of the WBC federation, Mauricio Sulejmani, did not hide his satisfaction.
He did not hide his satisfaction with the intrigue either, especially since he made his debut at the age of 37 and how - in the 3rd round he knocked down the undisputed boxing champion. This is confirmed by his parody of Fury's match announcement, where the possibility of Nganu winning it is the same as that of Novak Djokovic beating table tennis in the Wimbledon final.
And he can't be dissatisfied with his earnings either, because with $20 million from his debut in boxing, he will earn five times more than for his entire career in the UFC.
