Ebanie Bridges, the IBF bantamweight champion, is confident that Tyson Fury will dominate Francis Ngannou in their upcoming fight. The highly-anticipated bout is set to take place in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night, with Fury being the overwhelming favorite to win.
Fury's Skills and Superiority
Bridges expressed her belief that Fury, who she considers to be the best heavyweight in the world, will have no problem defeating the MMA fighter who has never boxed before. She highlighted Fury's slickness, strength, and ability to potentially knock out his opponent. Although she acknowledged that MMA fighters can be tough due to the various moves they can use, Bridges emphasized that boxing is a different game.
She confidently stated, "I think Fury is going to box his t**s off."
Change in Fight Classification
Originally planned as an exhibition, the fight has been officially changed to a professional bout just hours before the event. However, Fury's WBC belt will not be at stake, as Ngannou is not considered a valid challenger due to it being his professional debut.
Impressive Earnings and Future Fights
It is reported that Fury will earn approximately £65 million for this crossover fight. Additionally, he is set to make £100 million from two fights against Oleksandr Usyk. Both Fury and Usyk have spotless professional records, with a combined total of 55 wins.
Despite the possibility of the fight being postponed to early 2024, Fury has expressed his determination for it to proceed as planned on December 23.
