The WBC world heavyweight champion, Tyson Fury, and the former UFC champion Francis Ngannou faced off ahead of their ‘Battle of the Baddest’ fight in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on 27 October. Fury called 37-year-old Ngannou a “fat sausage”, but despite the jibe, the face off was fairly good natured.

“Yes, I’m fat, but I can still knock people out. You used to knock people out when you were fat. So it’s okay,” Ngannou countered.
“He got you with that one, he got you with that one,” said the former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson, who will be in Ngannou’s corner for the fight.
The comeback caught Fury off guard, who laughed it off: “That’s true. I’ll give him that, that’s true,” he said.
