Tyson Fury, the British professional boxer, has stated that a potential fight with Francis Ngannou, the Cameroonian mixed martial artist, would be a '50-50' match. Fury also expressed confidence in his ability to avoid getting hit by Ngannou, comparing it to avoiding getting hit by 'a handful of rice'. This comes after Carl Froch, a former professional boxer, suggested that Ngannou's trainer, Mike Tyson, would have a better chance of defeating Fury.
