“He did a great job (against Fury). Number 10 is too low!”
Tyson explained exactly why he thinks Ngannou should be higher ranked.
He continued: “He did a great job with one of the greatest fighters of all time. His first time boxing, fighting for the heavyweight championship, fighting against the best heavyweight of his era. He deserves a lot of credentials after that.”
Where do you think the former UFC heavyweight champion should be ranked? Let us know in the comments.
10 just the right number because it’s unfair to the othe fighters.
