Francis Ngannou’s showing against Tyson Fury has opened the door to a number of high-profile matchups within boxing’s heavyweight division, including Anthony Joshua.
‘AJ’ has been one of Britain’s brightest stars over the past decade. His promoter, Eddie Hearn, has called for a matchup with Ngannou in the wake of his clash with Fury.
The former UFC champion made his professional debut against ‘The Gypsy King’ in Saudi Arabia last weekend, and many, including Hearn, dismissed the matchup prior to fight night.
Francis Ngannou was given little chance of causing an incredible upset. But, ‘The Predator’ was able to provide Tyson Fury with what he described as “his toughest fight in 10 years.”
Fury was awarded a split-decision win, much to the dismay of fans, who have shared their frustration with the result.
