Tyson Fury has announced his upcoming clash with mixed martial arts fighter Francis Ngannou. The highly anticipated boxing contest is scheduled to take place on October 28 in Saudi Arabia.
However, Fury's WBC heavyweight title will not be on the line in this bout. Fury's last fight was in December, where he defeated Derek Chisora in 10 rounds.
Talks of an undisputed world title showdown against Oleksandr Usyk fell through earlier this year, leaving Fury eager to step back into the ring.
While Usyk prepares to defend his WBA, IBF, and WBO crowns against Fury's promotional stablemate Daniel Dubois next month, Fury will face an opponent with no professional boxing record.
