Francis Ngannou and Mike Tyson engage in ‘GOAT’ debate, discuss WWE legends, favorite KOs, MMA Icons, top actors, and more
Francis Ngannou and Mike Tyson’s collaboration keeps on delivering delightful content for combat sports fans.
The veteran knockout artist ruled the ring in his prime and arguably the current baddest man on the planet, Ngannou, left his opponents kissing the canvas during his octagon stint.
Recently, two of the scariest personalities in the history of combat sports – Mike Tyson and Francis Ngannou – came together to pick their GOATs in different realms ranging from boxing to MMA to professional wrestling, entertainment, and more.
‘The Predator’ and ‘Iron Mike’ picked GOATs in the following categories:
Both Ngannou and Tyson picked the uppercut as their favorite move to take consciousness away from their opponents. Both had Jon Jones as their GOAT MMA fighter.
Ngannou picked Hulk Hogan as the best wrestler while Tyson went with Ric Flair. The boxing legend did not pick any shoe as his favorite since none of them sponsored him. Ngannou, who comes from a very humble background, picked Air Jordan as his favorite shoes. ‘The Predator’ remembered the time when he had no shoes and looked at a Jay-Z pair in 2000 and wanted to get his hands on them.
Tyson picked his loss against Buster Douglas in 1990 as his best fight. He ranked his knockout of Larry Holmes as the best in his career.
‘The Predator’ ranked his vicious knockout of Alistair Overeem as his best whereas Tyson offered that Ngannou’s knockout of Jairzinho Rozenstruik was one of his best.
Ngannou has a chance to make a strong case for himself as one of the greatest combat sports athletes of all time when he faces heavyweight boxing world champion, Tyson Fury on October 28.
