You can tell by the way he&#8217;s performing how switched on he is, how switched on and focused he is.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I do think it will be an early night on Saturday because you can&#8217;t have your first boxing fight against someone who is in my opinion the best to ever do it and do some good, it just doesn&#8217;t happen like that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;There are levels to boxing. Francis&#8217;s gas tank will be tested too because in MMA you get a bit of time to rest here and there. In boxing &#8211; someone is on you 24\/7 in the three minutes of that round and you have ten rounds to do. It&#8217;s a tall order for him so I do think Tyson will get him out of there in four rounds or under.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Francis is going to get clipped by an uppercut or maybe a straight right but I don&#8217;t think he will last more than four rounds. Maybe if the Usyk fight wasn&#8217;t happening, Tyson would have a bit of fun and carry him for a few rounds but if he can get him out of there in one a round with a big fight looming&#8230; we&#8217;ll see.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>Verdict:<\/span> <span>Fury win<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/27\/12\/77077855-12679285-image-m-31_1698407453753.jpg\" height=\"634\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Tommy Fury is predicting an &#8216;early night&#8217; for Francis Ngannou against his brother Tyson<\/p>\n<p><span>Mike Tyson<\/span><\/p>\n<p>No surprise that the man in Francis Ngannou&#8217;s corner is backing him to pull off a shock victory in Riyadh.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Iron Mike&#8217; says &#8216;nobody can survive&#8217; a shot to the jaw from Ngannou if it lands as he gave a puncher&#8217;s chance to his fighter after training him for arguably the biggest fight of his life.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I am helping Ngannou,&#8217; he told Mail Sport in an exclusive interview.

He&#8217;s really high up. He can do greatness right now.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He&#8217;s always going to bring a good night of boxing, fight hard. You&#8217;ve got to try and hit him with a shot to knock him cold out because he always gets back up and fights hard.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;[Ngannou] has what it takes to knockout anything or anybody standing in his way.

He warned &#8216;anything can happen&#8217; but admitted he hoped his old rival could &#8216;shock the world&#8217;.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Listen, he&#8217;s onto bigger and better things. On paper, Tyson Fury is one of the best boxers of all time, amazing at what he does but Francis hits really hard.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It&#8217;s a fight, anything can happen.

But UFC isn&#8217;t boxing. I&#8217;m 100 per cent sure that Tyson Fury will be victorious.

I&#8217;m not going to lie, I&#8217;m going to watch it, I&#8217;m intrigued.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Put this into context, this man is having his first ever professional boxing match of his life, and he is fighting the heavyweight champion of the world.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Make no mistake, if any boxer was to try to get in a cage with Ngannou, he would absolutely tear them apart, and I&#8217;m pretty sure that man is capable of tearing hands or feet or limbs off your body.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It&#8217;s just that mixed martial arts and boxing are two completely different sports.

Of course, being in the game for 30 years. But I look at patterns, I look at little details, I look at [it] a little different.

Everything has been tough. He&#8217;s a real tough guy who&#8217;s the best in his discipline.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He&#8217;s not a trained boxer and I think what can he do to beat Tyson Fury? He can&#8217;t outbox him. He beats him by knocking him out. He&#8217;s got to take him out and put him out of his stride. He&#8217;s got to rough him up like they do in UFC. He will have to be physical and land his bombs. That&#8217;s the only way he beats him.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;People think Tyson will move around and jab. I don&#8217;t think he&#8217;ll do that. He stood toe-to-toe with Deontay Wilder and I think that&#8217;s what will happen. It will be exciting and very, very short and I think Tyson will come through it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Tyson is the guy who has everything to lose. Ngannou has not a thing to lose.

You start throwing in grappling with Francis, it&#8217;s never good for him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He has a striker&#8217;s mentality. He has a tall ask with Tyson Fury, but any man can land a shot. I&#8217;m excited to see it unfold. Tyson looks great in the build-up, fast, light, elusive. It could be a seriously stellar performance from Tyson Fury here.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;What&#8217;s the variables in this? The Mike Tyson variable is very interesting in Francis Ngannou&#8217;s corner. Francis has power, Francis has big power. With that power, anything can happen.
