Francis Ngannou has no plans to fight with Oleksandr Usik

In the event of a win over Anthony Joshua, former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou plans to face Tyson Fury, regardless of whether the Briton beats Oleksandr Usik or loses to the Ukrainian.

“I don’t want a fight with the winner of the Fury-Usik fight – I want Tyson Fury,” “The Predator” told TMZ. “Tyson owes me a fight. I don’t care who the winner is. I’m going after Tyson. Whether he loses or wins, I’m going to fight him.”

As for his upcoming boxing match with the Briton, the Cameroonian realizes that this time he should not count on the surprise factor that played into his hands in his fight against “The Gypsy King”, to whom he lost by controversial split decision last October.

“Anthony Joshua has already seen me boxing, so, a little bit, he knows what’s in store for him. Unlike Tyson Fury, who didn’t know what to expect, Joshua is aware of what I’m capable of, so I’ll have to work harder to win.”

Recall that the fight for the title of absolute world heavyweight boxing champion between Tyson Fury and Alexander Usik will take place on February 17 in the Saudi capital Riyadh, while Francis Ngannou and Anthony Joshua will fight in the same arena on March 9.
