British professional boxer Tyson Fury confronted Cameroonian professional mixed martial artist Francis Ngannou over a ‘coward’ claim after arriving in Saudi Arabia ahead of the latter’s fight with British boxer and two-time former unified world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua on Friday night.
Fury will be a special visitor in the front row for Ngannou and Joshua’s upcoming battle tomorrow.
He reportedly exchanged words with Ngannou when they met at a pre-fight gathering alongside Joshua and Portuguese footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, according to Sky Sports.
Britain’s WBC champion was sensationally floored by Ngannou before claiming a split-decision win because one of the judges believed Ngannou, who knocked Fury down badly in the third round, had won.
