We have a fight, and tomorrow night in Rydah, Saudi Arabia, Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KOs) will face MMA heavyweight Francis Ngannou in what looks to be the year’s biggest spectacle. Earlier today, Fury weighed 277.7 lbs. while Ngannou came in almost the same weight as he stepped on the scale at 272.1 lbs.
You are sadly mistaken if you thought this event wouldn’t be significant. Legends, former and current champions have been flown in to add to the event's star power. Although this may not be everyone’s cup of tea, this will be one of the most-watched events this year, which will broadcast live worldwide. Will Fury, the ultimate showman, do plenty of that early before getting serious and finishing Ngannou? Will the former MMA champion Ngannou put into play everything he learned from Mike Tyson and Teddy Atlas on Saturday night while knocking Fury out? These are all things to consider as we are a little over 24 hours away before we get the answers to those questions.
The odds have shifted a bit since the beginning of the week, and plenty of prop bets are available for the fight.
ONE MORE SLEEP.
