      I’ve fought Tyson Fury three times and he will beat Francis Ngannou… but he will get DROPPED by ex-UFC star

      by

      TYSON FURY has been backed by his former opponent to beat Francis Ngannou – but only after taking a trip to the canvas. The unbeaten heavyweight world champion faces ex-UFC star Ngannou on October 28 in Saudi Arabia.

      Fury, 35, comes into the bout having last stopped Derek Chisora, 39, in December, the third time he beat his British rival.
      And Chisora is picking the Gypsy King to beat Ngannou, 37, but warned he could have to get up from the floor first.
      He told SecondsOut: “Tyson is going to win it, but I think Tyson is going to get dropped by Ngannou.”
      Ngannou is set to make the move from the MMA cage to the boxing ring following his UFC departure.

      And Fury’s dad John expects the former UFC champion to bring every ounce of his rugged martial arts style into the bout.
      He told Seconds Out via Freebets.com: “I hold him in the highest esteem and the highest regard.
      “He’s world champion at his game, he’s taking on the best in the world, taking it seriously and I do believe he’s going to bring the smoke.
      “I’m expecting Tyson to come out with a broken leg or a broken arm.

      “He’s not going to come out unscathed and I’m glad they’re paying him well because if they weren’t paying him well I wouldn’t put him in against Francis Ngannou.
      “He’s going to get knocked about, Tyson, and he knows that, exhibition my backside – they’re going to kill each other them pair.”
      Ngannou has called on the help of American legend Mike Tyson – who John named his son after – for his boxing debut.

      Iron Mike has been helping train the Cameroonian in his Las Vegas camp.
      And John said: “Bare in mind he’s got Mike Tyson there and he wants to impress Mike Tyson.
      “And then Tyson [Fury] has got an ego as big as Morecambe so the stage is set for a battle royal.
      “He couldn’t have a better mentor in his camp than the great Mike Tyson, I’m sure Mike will show him the boxing moves he needs.”

      Oleksandr Usyk opens up on horror of front line in Ukraine war where he saw lost limbs and ‘everything looked dead’
      /sport/23626110/oleksandr-usyk-ukraine-war-daniel-dubois-boxing/

      OLEKSANDR USYK’S Ukraine Independence Day celebrations today will be haunted by severed limbs, ­‘zombies’ and abandoned playgrounds.

      The war-torn nation left the Soviet Union 32 years ago  — and is now fighting for its existence following Russia’s invasion.

      Oleksandr Usyk has appeared on the frontline of Ukraine’s war

      Produ Ukrainian Usyk will take on Daniel Dubois saying he’d ‘fight every day’ if it could ‘bring some enjoyment to his country’s fightersRichard Pelham / The Sun

      Not known, clear with picture deskUsyk, centre, holds a machine gun as he joins his country efforts to thwart Vladimir Putin’s Russian invaders[/caption]

      World heavyweight champ Usyk chose this weekend to defend his WBA, IBF and WBO crowns against Daniel Dubois in Wroclaw, a Polish city that has welcomed around 250,000 Ukrainians since the war started 18 months ago.

      Forty thousand of them will pack the local football stadium on Saturday night to watch their hero take on Londoner Dubois.

      At 300 miles from the Ukrainian border, it is the closest Usyk has got to fighting at home since 2015 and should be a blue and yellow parade of national pride.

      But the father of three, whe spent time on the front line in the East Ukraine ghost town of Niu-York, has lost friends, been separated from his family and remains troubled by  his experiences.

      He explained: “Through binoculars, from 900 metres, I saw my enemies running, exploding tanks and broken houses. I saw people with no legs and arms.

      “I saw people walking but looking like they were dead.

      “When I was going in the car around the city, I realised it was a dead city. I saw children’s toys and playgrounds but everything looked dead, there was no energy in the city.

      “I realised that one day that place, on that ground, kids were playing. But now it is dead.”

      GettyWorld champ Oleksandr Usyk says he is ‘not a general, just a regular Ukrainian guy’ when asked by friends why he appears on the front line[/caption]

      EPABritain’s Daniel Dubois prepares to face Oleksandr Usyk n Wroclaw, Poland[/caption]

      The former Olympic gold medallist and undisputed cruiserweight king regularly speaks to Ukraine fighters.

      He added: “I get a lot of text messages from my fans and friends on the front line.

      “I sometimes speak to my friends on the phone and I can hear missiles exploding in the background. I can hear the sounds of bombing.

      “The people I speak to say, ‘Brother, I will call you back, if I am still alive’. Thankfully, most of the time, they stay alive.”

      Usyk has not fought since beating Anthony Joshua for the second time in Saudi Arabia 12 months ago.

      It is staggering that the southpaw genius has had the mental strength to twice dominate AJ and now get ready to dice with Dynamite Dubois who, at 25, is 11 years younger than the champ.

      But Usyk insists he is just a simple family man.

      He said: “For the last 18 months my family has been separated.

      “My kids cannot live in Ukraine, they live somewhere else.

      “But all of this makes me stronger. Some of the guys I was with on the front line did not understand why I was there.

      “They asked, ‘Why are you here, what are you doing here? Some of the generals are not even coming to this place’. More

      Security staff were quick to intervene as an enraged Fury slammed his fists on the table before kicking it in the air.
      Logan Paul and Dillon Danis, who are fighting on the same card, had been going back-and-forth with each other before Fury lost his cool.
      Angered by their jabs at each other’s families and person lives, he stood up and fumed: “We are fighting men.”
      After begging those on stage to stop and talk about the fight instead, he tossed a table and booted a chair off stage.

      Fury then went a step further and offered everyone else at the press conference out for a fight.
      “We are fighting men!” shouted the former boxer. “My son will fight him and I’ll fight anyone in the building.”
      KSI could be seen looking visibly confused as Fury launched into his bizarre rant whilst pointing at the YouTube star.
      He continued: “Let’s get the f***ing ball rolling. Get the cake and shove it up your a***hole, before I do it.
