No one expected Francis Ngannou, the veteran MMA fighter, to give the lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury much of a challenge. It was Ngannou’s first official boxing match and Fury was undefeated. But what did Ngannou do? He knocked Fury down once and only narrowly lost a split decision. It blew the socks off the boxing world and netted Ngannou a second chance at a top heavyweight: Anthony Joshua. Joshua (27-3, 24 KOs) hopes that a more impressive show against Ngannou will line him up for a shot at Tyson Fury. Ngannou (0-1) hopes to grab his first professional boxing victory and continue shaking up the sport.
