Here is his answer:<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Tyson Fury vs. Francis Ngannou<\/h2>\n<p>Tyson Fury, if all you care about is winning that fight, he&#8217;s dominating Francis Ngannou, making him look ridiculous, why buy a pay-per-view or a ticket to see them fight? I was able to make people wonder if it was true.<\/p>\n<p>Still, this fight will probably be the most prosperous for Ngannou, especially if Tyson Fury defeats Oleksandr Usyk. But if Ngannou takes up that fight and is made to look silly, I&#8217;m worried.I think he will.That&#8217;s the cash out option.<\/p>\n<h2>Deontay Wilder vs. Francis Ngannou<\/h2>\n<p>Wilder is a bit more of a &#8220;he has a chance&#8221; type fight for Ngannou. Wilder doesn&#8217;t move like Fury does. He stands there and tries to land his right hand. Who says Ngannou can&#8217;t shoot at him?<\/p>\n<p>So this fight would be a little more plausible and the oddsmakers would probably agree with me. Fury is at least an 8, maybe 10-1 favorite\u2014if not more. I can&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>But again, if I&#8217;m dealing with Francis Ngannou, I don&#8217;t want to get him into a big fight with one of those two right out of the gate. I wouldn&#8217;t.  Let&#8217;s say Canelo Alvarez says, &#8220;Hey, I&#8217;m going to switch to MMA.&#8221; Why did you put your first match there against Alex Pereira?<\/p>\n<h2>Zhilei Zhang vs. Francis Ngannou<\/h2>\n<p>I think the &#8220;big bang&#8221; is the best bet.  Although Zhang is nearly 40 years old, he moves quite slowly and his style makes him similar to Ngannou.<\/p>\n<p>Ngannou wants to stay away from talented boxers as much as possible.  Just like Usyk makes him look completely silly in my mind.<\/p>\n<p>Not to mention, they could get it in China.The UK and America aren&#8217;t the only places you can make money. That match in Asia&#8230; reminded me a little of the K1 days when Alistair Overeem was walking the ramp and fighting guys like Bob Sapp. It&#8217;s going to be a huge money-making contest, and I think Francis will be much more competitive than the other two.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe title=\"Would Francis Ngannou Be A Legitimate Contender In Boxing?\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rwQTxJ0bxTs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/__i\/rss\/rd\/articles\/CBMikwFodHRwczovL3d3dy5kYXpuLmNvbS9lbi1VUy9uZXdzL2JveGluZy8zLWhlYXZ5d2VpZ2h0LWJveGluZy1maWdodHMtdGhhdC13b3VsZC1iZS1zZXJpb3VzbHktaW50cmlndWluZy1mb3ItZnJhbmNpcy1uZ2Fubm91L2ltNDh4bW9ibGttdzF0M3gzbmNnYTNqZWzSAZcBaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZGF6bi5jb20vZW4tVVMvbmV3cy9hbXAvYm94aW5nLzMtaGVhdnl3ZWlnaHQtYm94aW5nLWZpZ2h0cy10aGF0LXdvdWxkLWJlLXNlcmlvdXNseS1pbnRyaWd1aW5nLWZvci1mcmFuY2lzLW5nYW5ub3UvaW00OHhtb2Jsa213MXQzeDNuY2dhM2plbA?oc=5\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] We asked DAZN&#8217;s Todd Grisham for his take on Francis Ngannou&#8217;s three boxing matches that will draw fight fans.
