Tyson Fury seeks a fight with Mike Tyson

The bout between Tyson Fury and MMA king, Francis Ngannou will hold on the 28th of October at Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

It is to be a professional boxing match, but the only prize in it would be the money. The WBC heavyweight belt Tyson Fury is watching over shall not be taken away at the event of a loss.

After the surfacing of videos of Mike Tyson guiding Francis Ngannou through several lethal techniques, Tyson Fury could not keep down his distaste. Apart from revealing his feeling of betrayal, the champion, who has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder also lashed out cleanly at Mike Tyson, and is probably expecting an equally-heated reply.

Fury told Sky Sports he was displeased that after being named after the former champion, Mike Tyson by his father, the same man chose to train another person instead of him.

‘I think that it’s sad, actually. The man that I’m named after, a legend,’ Fury admitted. ‘Has to go against me, for one, and then come out as a loser, for two, having lost to a man he was named after. I think it’s sad and I think that he should be in my corner, not the losing corner.

‘But business is business, and I understand that it’s strictly business. No matter what he teaches this fella, no matter how much boxing training he does or whatever, everyone’s got a plan until they get punched in the face. I’m not sure who said that, but I know that’s true. They’ve all got plans until they get smacked in the mouth.’

Though Tyson Fury went on to excuse Mike Tyson, calling his role as Ngannou’s trainer ‘strictly business’, he still lashed out at Mike Tyson.

Here is the blow:

‘I don’t know [why Tyson is training Ngannou] – I must have said something to offend him [Tyson]. I haven’t spoke to him, but it must be that I’ve outdone him, longer-reigning champion than he was. Maybe he’s upset about that. I don’t know.’

Fans and pundits wonder what Mike Tyson would do in return.
