UFC heavyweight champion (up to 120,2kg), Francis Ngannou is willing to do anything to get the attention of Tyson Fury, eyeing a boxing match against the boxer. Even if this means measuring forces against the athlete in a telephone booth or on the roof of a house.

“I don't really care how it happens. I just think it's going to be a fight against Tyson Fury and for that, it can be in a phone booth or wherever, as long as this fight happens. (Even) on the roof – this fight will happen,” said Ngannou on his official channel on 'YouTube'.

Francis is now recovering from a knee injury and is expected to be out until the end of the year. The Cameroonian won Cyryl Gane in his last appearance and defended the heavyweight belt in January of this year. He is experiencing a salary impasse with the UFC and often talks about the possibility of moving to the 'noble art'.

The fight, however, may not happen. In a recent interview with 'The MMA Hour’, Tyson Fury stated that he will say goodbye to the sport against Dillian Whyte, in a duel scheduled to take place on April 23rd. A current boxing phenomenon, the Englishman is champion of the WBC (World Boxing Confederation) and 'The Ring' and has a record of 31 victories in 32 engagements.
