The date of December 23 has been suggested for the heavyweight title unification fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk, but Francis Ngannou is skeptical that the match will actually take place.
On October 28, a fight for a vacant belt between Fury and ‘The Predator’ is planned to take place.
In a post that was made on X (which was formerly known as Twitter), the former heavyweight champion of the UFC made a mocking assertion that Fury might not be fit to participate in December following their fight:
“I don’t know what the minimum medical suspension in boxing is, but I really don’t understand how Tyson can fight in December after what’s going to happen on 10/28,” said one boxing analyst.
Boxing supporters were outraged by the MMA superstar’s jab at the WBC champion, and they vented their anger in the comments area of the Cameroonian’s post by flooding it with their responses.
Check out some of the responses that were received below.

Another battle fan with the handle @SalesGoals posted the following:
“After he has beaten you,” he said. He plans to take a week off for vacation. Train for a total of six weeks before taking on Usyk. It’s not a problem.”
The ability of ‘The Predator’ to talk trash was praised by @VolatilityVIX, which listed the following benefits:
“Wow, that is a really interesting tweet!. However, despite the fact that you won’t be touching Tyson Fury with your bare hands, I give this tweet a perfect score.

Opinion expressed by @ErnieTastyFresh:
“There’s a good chance you’re going to get knocked out.”
Another user on the platform, using by the handle @intrinsicvalyou, made fun of the Cameroonian by stating:

“He’s going to smoke you like you aren’t there,” the other person said.
Francis Ngannou received harsh criticism from @BOXINGIQ901, which stated:
“Because you’re not even a real fight or even a warm-up fight,” he told her. You’re not even giving Fury enough of a workout for him to break a sweat with what you’re doing.
