      Some fans were more sceptical, though, as a third wrote: “I’ll believe it when I see it.”
      Meanwhile, one more said: “Nate isn’t fighting in the PFL…”
      Diaz is currently a free agent having left the UFC last year following the final fight on his contract.

      Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou net worth combined: How career earnings and endorsements compare ahead of super-fight

      by

      TYSON FURY and Francis Ngannou are set to collide is a crossover clash for the ages where legacies will be put on the line. Fury welcomes the ex-UFC champion to the ring this Saturday in Saudi Arabia.

      TYSON FURY VS FRANCIS NGANNOU: ALL THE DETAILS YOU NEED AHEAD OF HUGE CROSSOVER CLASH
      And the bout is expected to earn the pair millions as the boxing and MMA world come together.
      SunSport runs down how much both Fury and Ngannou are worth heading into the Battle of Baddest.
      Tyson Fury
      The Gypsy King – who has won every belt in boxing – has shifted his focus to becoming the world’s richest sports star.
      And he could be well on his way after Derek Chisora said his fight with Ngannou will earn him at least $50million (£41m).
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      He has also agreed to face Oleksandr Usyk afterwards with their agreement believed to include two bouts.
      Fury’s US promoter Bob Arum claimed his three-fight business deal with the Saudis could earn him up to $200m (£165m).

      That is already added on to the mass fortune he has acquired during his prizefighting career already – which he has partly used to build up a vast car collection including TWO Rolls Royces.
      His two rematch wins over Deontay Wilder and knockout of Dillian Whyte banked him around £70m.
      Most read in Boxing
      He also had another stadium fight with Derek Chisora – which he won in round ten – with reports revealing that made him another £20m.
      It takes his total boxing earnings to over £100m, with potentially another £165m to come over his next three fights.
      Forbes say Fury, who travels by private jet despite having SEVEN mouths to feed, earns $2m (£1.6m) from sponsors, which include his own clothing and drinks line as well as Wow Hydrate.

      Francis Ngannou
      Ngannou walked out on the UFC when his contract expired having seen a move to boxing previously blocked.
      During his reign as UFC champ, the Cameroonian would have received pay-per-view bonuses for his fights.
      Eyebrows were raised when it was revealed Ngannou only made $600,00 (£493,000) for his final UFC win over Ciryl Gane.
      Although with his PPV pounds, his final pay cheque would have been well into the millions.

      Still, it is not a fraction of the $10m (£8.2m) that Fury announced Ngannou would make after leaving the UFC for the boxing ring.
      He said: “Everyone said he was an idiot for walking away from the UFC and now all of a sudden he’s a genius, isn’t he?
      “Guy’s about to make $10million. Come on! Egg in their face! Francis is going to make that bag. Rich!”

      Ngannou was believed to have been offered an $8m (£6.5m) guarantee to remain at the UFC and fight Jon Jones.
      Outside the cage, the heavyweight is sponsored by Gym Shark and had a brief cameo in the ninth Fast and Furious film, released in 2021.

      Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou slammed as boxing legend claims Mike Tyson would be tougher fight

      CARL FROCH has slammed Tyson Fury’s fight with Francis Ngannou and claimed Mike Tyson would be a tougher opponent. The boxing and MMA worlds collide this Saturday in Saudi Arabia as the pair of heavyweight superstars clash in a crossover bout.

      Ngannou is making his boxing debut and has brought in American icon Tyson into his coaching team.
      It is a move retired world champion Carl Froch hailed – but he claimed even 57-year-old Iron Mike would be more of a threat to Fury.
      He told BestGamblingSites: “Bringing Mike Tyson in has brought more interest to it, it’s like he’s glamorised the event.
      “Wherever he goes he’s like a God. He’s a f***ing mad, brilliant fighter and the ultimate fighting machine.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      “There’s an argument to say Mike Tyson would give Tyson Fury a better fight than Francis Ngannou.
      “He’s got all of that experience, he’s an old man, but he’d give Tyson Fury more of a fight for two or three rounds than Francis Ngannou is going to manage.
      “The trainer has got more of a chance than Ngannou, 100 per cent. He has, hasn’t he? You can’t argue with that.”
      Froch has likened the bout between boxing’s No1 heavyweight and debutant Ngannou to a sparring session in the gym.

      He said: “Listen, this is a f***ing sparring session, probably the easiest spar he’s ever had.
      “I don’t care that Ngannou can punch, a mule can kick really hard, but he’s never going to be able to line it up.
      “Fury’s not going to be worried about getting hit by that monstrous punch because I’ve seen Ngannou on the pads and he looks terrible.
      “He looks like what I’d expect a zero fight novice to look like. Ngannou looked slow, awkward, stiff – how is he going to get near Fury?
      “He’s going to get his head absolutely peppered off.”

      Fury is listed as 6ft 9in while Ngannou is 6ft 4in – but when the two came face to face there was little to separate them.
      And the ex-UFC champion – making his boxing debut – believes the Gypsy King may be smaller than he makes out.
      He told TNT Sports: “They say he’s 6ft 9in? But this doesn’t look like five inches difference, right?”
      Fury, 35, quickly interjected: “How tall are you?”

      Ngannou, 37, responded: “They say I’m, 6ft 4in.”

      Ngannou hit back: “Well, I would say you’re about 6ft 5in’.”
      Fury heads into the fight full of confidence and even gave away his game plan to Ngannou’s face.

      “The man that I am named after, a legend, has to go against me and then come out as a loser, having lost to a man who was named after him.
      “I think that it’s sad and I think that he should be in my corner, not the opposing corner, but business is business and I understand that it’s strictly business.”
      But in response, Tyson said to TNT Sports: “This is business, and he understands.”
