PFL heavyweight contender Francis Ngannou is still hoping to box Tyson Fury. ‘The Predator’ famously ended his lengthy free agency earlier this week. In January, Ngannou made history as the first champion to leave the UFC since BJ Penn did so in 2004. At the time, the heavyweight stated that restrictive contracts, as well as a lack of an ability to box, forced his move.

There is a ton of bad blood going into today’s (February 26) boxing tilt between Tommy Fury and Jake Paul. The two haven’t minced words ahead of their collision, with Fury saying that Paul will never box again after this match. “I’m going to be angry, I’m going to be frustrated at Jake Paul, he can’t fight,” Fury said to Top Rank. “I’m here on a paid vacation and if I’m worried about Jake Paul then I want to forget about winning a world title. That isn’t the case here, we are here super relaxed, on weight, and ready to go… When I’m done, this guy will never box again. If I have any dreams of winning a world title, I’m not fazed by Jake Paul and you will see that Sunday night.”

But, Fury has now taken it a step further as he claims when he beats Paul, the YouTuber-turned-boxer will never box again.

Long-time boxing veteran, Ricky Hatton, is no stranger to big fights. The former light-welterweight and welterweight standout competed from 1997-2012 and fought some of the sport’s best, including Floyd Mayweather Jr., Carlos Maussa and Paulie Malignaggi, to name a few. Hatton is still engrained in the sport and has taken an interest in its future, including Saturday’s trilogy fight between Tyson Fury and Derek Chisora for the WBC heavyweight title.

Tyson Fury is still not a fan of Deontay Wilder. Wilder and Fury fought three times with Fury winning two and the other being a draw. Throughout their rivalry, the two trashed one another.

Tyson Fury believes his father John should have a bare knuckle boxing match against Jake Paul. It’s no secret that Jake Paul isn’t a well-liked man within the Fury family.

The two haven’t fought yet but after John Fury took his shirt off and threatened Jake during their last interaction, we’d say negotiations are progressing – or, at least, they should be.
