Francis Ngannou bashes Tyson Fury at Anthony Joshua press conference Francis Ngannou and Tyson Fury got into a vicious verbal spat during Ngannou and Anthony Joshua\u2019s heavyweight press conference on Wednesday. Ngannou and Joshua were the ones expected to trade insults. However, things took a disrespectful turn once the former boasted about his debut boxing performance against Fury. The lineal heavyweight champion defended his pride and clapped back in the audience before Ngannou delivered a crushing blow to Fury\u2019s toughness. Francis Ngannou dismisses Tyson Fury\u2019s boxing and MMA chops Ngannou talked up his boxing prowess by gloating over his knockdown against Fury. The 37-year-old confidently proclaimed that he won their first fight. Fury didn\u2019t take that too kindly. He shouted back at Ngannou. Then, Ngannou went off the rails as DAZN shared on X: \u201cYou\u2019re gonna slip in the octagon again, and I\u2019m going to wipe the ring with your a** again,\u201d Ngannou said regarding a potential rematch with the Brit. \u201cI\u2019ll tell you, your only chance is in the ring, in the boxing ring with the boxing rules. When you step off of that ring you better stay five meter away before I [unintelligible] your s***, because if I lose it, you\u2019re gonna have a really bad time my friend.\u201d The war of words highlighted a rather uneventful third press conference between Ngannou and Joshua. Both fighters and their camps declared a win on Friday. Ngannou\u2019s coach Dewey Cooper alliteratively promised that \u201cthe flaming, ferocious fists of Francis will finish Anthony Joshua.\u201d The victor will likely get a shot at Fury. Implications for the fight couldn\u2019t be higher.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
