Boxing: I won the fight against Tyson Fury – Francis Ngannou

Former UFC champion, Francis Ngannou has insisted that he
won his boxing match against Tyson Fury despite the split decision favouring
the Briton.

Recall that Ngannou lost a controversial
decision against Fury in the pair’s boxing match on Saturday night in Saudi
Arabia, despite knocking down the WBC heavyweight title holder in Round 3.

Speaking in a post-match interview with IU, the Cameroonian
star said he knew that if the match comes to decision he was not going to win
because it was his debut.

Ngannou said, “If he [Fury] is being honest, he would say I
won that fight. I won that fight, there’s no question about it.

“But before getting here, I know that if the fight get to
decisions, I’m not winning not because I didn’t do good but because I’m a new
guy in the house.”
