Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou odds analysis

Two-time heavyweight champion Tyson Fury last fought back in December of 2022, in which he defeated Dereck Chisora by TKO to improve to 33-0-1.

Fury is regarded as one of the greatest heavyweight boxers of all time and has notable victories against Chisora (thrice), Wladimir Klitschko, and Deontay Wilder (two wins by knockout and draw). "The Gypsy King" is a massive heavyweight that combines strong fundamentals, good movement, laser-like accuracy, and a granite chin.

Francis Ngannou is the hardest hitter in MMA and seven of his last eight wins in the UFC have come by way of knockout — with six of those coming inside of the first round. His last bout came in January of 2022 when he successfully defended the UFC Heavyweight title, but an inability to reach terms with the MMA organization saw him depart from the Octagon.

Ngannou has a background in boxing and originally pursued a professional career in the sport before joining MMA Factory in France. Ngannou signed a deal with PFL back in May just two months after having MCL and ACL surgery, and he's been practicing in the squared circle since.
