Francis Ngannou has expressed his desire for a rematch with Tyson Fury following their last week battle in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The Cameroonian, who had been purposely trained by legendary Mike Tyson for a bout with Fury surprised the whole world with an impressive performance that saw him hitting the Britons hard in his face.
Despite Ngannou’s dominance, Fury eventually secured a split-decision victory over th Cameronian who gave him a long run for his money and his professed supremacy.
The Britons would consequently suffered a cut over the forehead and the left eye and was even dropped in the third round, marking the seventh knockdown of his illustrious career.
Speaking with TMZ in an interview, Ngannou said he wants a rematch even though he is poised to do a lot of things with his foray into boxing.
He further stated that he would love Oleksandr Usyk to back out from the proposed bout with Fury scheduled for next year February in order to give him a chance at rematch.
“The rematch is what I want next the most. As for right now, I feel like there is a lot of options for me, but I want to choose wisely, and I would go for the rematch first. My best scenario in boxing is to wait for Fury. If Usyk can step out and let me fight Fury, I’ll fight Fury.
“Then I’ll let them do whatever they do. I’ll go back, maybe do some MMA fight and come back and take some people in boxing. I’m planning to fight potentially twice next year, maybe February or March. If it doesn’t work, I can still fight February or March in MMA”.
“Then expecting by the end of the year, this time October because it’s going to give me at least seven to eight months to recover from my MMA fight in case something happens” he explained
