Fury’s promoter, Frank Warren has shared his assessment on the fight.

Speaking to IFL TV, he said: “It’s a very intriguing fight and it’s been spiced up by his performance against Tyson. It’s his second fight as a boxer but he’s had a long career with the UFC and was very successful there, he was the undisputed champion.”

“As Tyson will tell you, he does punch. In-fighting, that’s their game MMA fighters, and you’re talking about the top level. About somebody who shaped up and looked like a boxer against Tyson.

“We know he can box, we know he can punch, and he doesn’t stand square on like most MMA fighters. He can fight either stance southpaw or orthodox, so it’s an intriguing fight.”

“If he catches AJ, who knows? The one thing AJ has got going into this fight is that he’s seen Ngannou in a boxing ring, whereas Tyson didn’t have that luxury.”
