Fury was expected to face unified champion Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight championship, but talks to finalize the fight ended in March.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s a big, strong guy,\u201d Fury said at a news conference Thursday.  &#8220;Obviously he has a good punch. But so do I. I&#8217;m a big, strong guy. Otherwise, I wouldn&#8217;t be the heavyweight champion of the world. But I believe there are levels to the game .And he&#8217;s going to find out.my level Saturday night&#8230;.I have no doubt in my mind that I&#8217;m going to eliminate him.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"inline float-r inline-track\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/A-new-middleweight-king-Will-Fury-Ngannou-be-competitive.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100%\" class=\"imageLoaded\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Top Rank Boxing is now on ESPN and <b>ESPN+<\/b>. <strong>Subscribe to ESPN+<\/strong> get <strong>exclusive boxing events<\/strong>weigh-ins and more.<\/p>\n<p><b>Saturday, October 28 at 2 p.m. ET on ESPN+ PPV:<\/b> Tyson Fury vs. Francis Ngannou, 10 rounds, heavyweight<\/p>\n<p><b>More Fury-Ngannou on ESPN+<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Friday, October 27 at 11 a.m. ET on ESPN+:<\/b> Tyson Fury vs. Francis Ngannou weigh-in<\/p>\n<p><b>Real time: Fury vs. Ngannou:<\/b> Episode 1 |  Episode 2 |  Episode 3<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p>Ngannou, 37, of Cameroon, had notable UFC victories against Stipe Miocic at UFC 260 in March 2021, and against Ciryl Gane at UFC 270 in January 2022.
