White promises to smear Ngannou. And not only in boxing, but also in MMA.

British heavyweight and former WBC title contender Dillian Whyte (29-3, 19 KOs) has not given up on the idea of ​​facing former UFC champion Cameroonian big guy Francis Ngannou (17-3 in MMA). Moreover, he is ready to do this both in boxing and in MMA – the Briton even has experience in mixed martial arts (winning by early knockout, dated 2008).

So White
reacted to the news about the departure of the champion from the UFC: “I would love to fight him. Yes, he is a champion and a really dangerous dude, but I think I would have smeared him. I think we would have a very interesting fight. Especially since we both have experience in MMA, and he seems to be willing to start in boxing right away as a tough dude. Like me. I think that this fight would have generated a lot of interest and close attention.”

White understands Ngannou’s decision to switch from MMA to boxing: “Yes, they all understand that they will earn more in the ring than in the cage. Moreover, boxers often choose MMA dudes as rivals, and then beat them in the ring. But you know what I’ll tell you? Few boxers are willing to take the risk of going up against an MMA fighter in a cage. And I’m ready to do it. I would love to have two fights with Ngannou – in boxing and in MMA.

Previously, Ngannou voiced priority options in boxing: he challenged Fury and Joshua. Do not laugh, but in the meantime, the UFC found a “new Ngannou” – he is from Russia.
