For those that don't understand why Francis wants his next fight to be in the Boxing world (most likely vs Fury), read this, * Francis's LAST UFC FIGHT (where he defended his Heavyweight belt) = he made $650 thousand * Dillian Whyte's (good fighter but not as marketable / popular as Francis) last fight = $7.4 million Francis's contract with the UFC ends soon and he will be a free agent at the end of this year. Even though UFC want to negotiate a new contract with Francis, they don't want to pay even a fraction of what Francis could make in a boxing fight. Francis knows this as well, he knows his worth, he wants to stay with the UFC but not be paid & treated the way he has.

He made it out, so many die trying to cross the deserts, the ocean etc going for greener pastures, because here the option are more than gloom, most people can't even afford to eat once in two days, no government programs , no jobs damn!!! we don't even have drugs to sell😂😂. Sometimes I see people in Europe and especially complain about their lives with the opportunities they got and just wonder. More than, 70% of youths in this country will be more than happy go America and wash corpses literally, as he said all we want is opportunity and we will grasp it with our lives, because we know what it is like where we from, anything that will guarantee us a meal a day and we're in there.

I'm a die hard UFC(& other MMA orgs)fan, since pre TUF era, and while I watch the big boxing fights I wouldn't consider myself knowledgeable outside of the boxers most of the general population knows, like Loma(my current fav along with GGG), Canelo, Tyson, wilder, fury, AJ, Garcia, Tank, and maybe a few others. Now, saying that, 90% of *knowledgeable & hardcore* MMA fans, know Fury tools Francis, smaller gloves or not, he's just too good, and will outpace + out cardio Ngannou, and 99.7% chance of finishing him. This isn't like Floyd Vs McGregor (still 75% of knowledgeable fans knew McGregor would lose) but McGregor was bigger, heavier, had a length + power advantage, and a style that Mayweather would have never have been in the ring against before, so the intrigue was more prominent. I don't see this one being anywhere near as successful, considering Tyson is the more Charismatic guy and will carry the "selling" of the fight, where as both Mayweather & Conor we're good sellers. So, not as much intrigue, not as much star power, and no physical advantages over Tyson, besides a possible power advantage, which we just saw Tyson beat boxing's current HW KO king in Wilder x3. This is a squash match, and tbh only see a 50% chance it seriously gets made. I do want it to happen simply because *fuck* Dana, he *SHOULD* pay fighters more, especially his champions.
