And now the father of Tyson Fury, wanted to go after Mike Tyson.
"[I'd like to fight] Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson, I’m going to the top of the tree. And he’s a traitor, and I’m going to tell him so in Saudi next week. Next week, he’ll be told," John Fury told Fight Hub TV.

And perhaps this is just to hype the fight as we all know that John Fury wanted to get into the limelight as well when his son/s have fight.
And I guess there's nothing personal on Mike's side, maybe he just wanted to train Francis Ngannou, who he might see himself when he was starting his boxing career. Power in both hands but very raw.
John is full of shit. One week he says he's a fighting man and will fight anyone anywhere then the next day he's saying he's too old and his fighting days are behind him. Mike would kill him. He was never a good boxer and just lives vicariously through his kids.
If Ngannou manages to beat Fury, he will need to do it twice because of a rematch clause.
They have a rematch clause in the contract? That is strange and unusual. Because for the boxing world, Ngannou is nobody. He has big name, fighting record, he is familiar as a vicious knockout artist and people would pay to see him fight. But he zero ranking in boxing. I really doubt that boxing promotions will let their champion fight unranked guy twice. I would even say that boxing association would simply forbid that, because their fight slows down whole division. Their second fight means that other boxers must wait 6-12 months before champion will be ready to do his obligatory title defence.
Tyson will probably have one just in case he loses. It's pretty much standard for the champs to do this these days but just clogs up the division with rematches.
With the odds paying out so small for Tyson Fury, it’s hardly worth betting on. I think even with Tyson being the massive favorite and in my opinion will be the winner, betting on Francis Ngannou is a more attractive bet just because there’s at least the chance of a decent payout. This just doesn’t seem like a good event to bet on unless you’re pairing it with another bet.
Just put some money on Ngannou getting a KO. I think Tyson will probably win by a ref stoppage or something when Francis gasses out but I think Francis is going to try very hard to KO him early on so it's worth putting something on the upset in my opinion.Francis has won most of his fights by KO and in the first and second rounds so I'm sure that's what he's aiming for here.
