• Boxing

Francis Ngannou is motivated before perhaps the biggest challenge in his career. Although this is his debut in professional boxing, Ngannou is confident and expects the best outcome. In addition to the fact that this is his debut, Francis has also chosen the most difficult opponent for himself.

It is interesting that the Cameroonian is training with Mike Tyson before this important match. He got a lot of useful tips and learned various things. It is still unreal for him to have the opportunity to work with such a legend.

Ngannou reacted to the reporter's question: What have you learned from Mike so far? “A lot of things,” Ngannou said, as quoted by mmajunkieusatoday.com! “I’ve known Mike Tyson since I don’t know how long, and I’ve met him a couple of times and to have him this time around, I’m like, ‘Ok?’ I was a little confused sometimes.

I’m like, ‘He’s not here just to watch.’ He’s here because of my fight and to help me, and he’s actually giving me instructions and stuff, and I’m like, ‘Man, this is actually Mike Tyson.

I’m not tripping. It’s real.’ That’s how big this is”.

Francis Ngannou on Mike Tyson's qualities

Mike Tyson is one of the greatest boxing legends and a man who left a huge mark on everyone. We don't have to talk much about his qualities, since those who watched his fights know best who Tyson is.

Ngannou is aware of the greatness of Mike Tyson and how much he has achieved in his career. “Obviously, in a couple of months, nobody has ever imitated Mike Tyson’s style and do it as best as him,” Ngannou said.

“It’s not something I’m going to do. But still, there are a lot of things that I’m learning from him. He wasn’t just good at knocking people out. He was very good at moving and his boxing technique”.
