The Gypsy King again called out MMA legend Francis Ngannou, claiming he would take both fighters on in the same night. In the video Fury posted onto Instagram, he said: “Here’s a thought, how about this
How about I fight Jon Jones and Francis Ngannou on the same night? How about that? That’s how much I value them two bums. Get up! Let’s go boys.”
The video comes just days after the controversial boxer posted a similar video where he teased a comeback fight soon. “Hoping to announce a big fight very very soon,” Fury said on his Instagram story.
