When is Tyson Fury v Francis Ngannou? UK time, date and ring walks latest
Your complete guide to timings for Tyson Fury v Francis Ngannou, including fight time and date.
Tyson Fury will return to the ring this weekend as he takes on Francis Ngannou in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The Gypsy King has not fought since December, when he faced Derek Chisora and comfortably secured a win, retaining his WBC heavyweight title and setting up an undisputed showdown against Oleksandr Usyk.
There is still no date for this planned fight – but an agreement has now been reached for a heavyweight fight with all the belts on the line.
Fury, therefore, will be wanting to beat Ngannou, an MMA fighter who was the UFC heavyweight champion up until he vacated the title in 2022 after failing to agree a new contract with the UFC.
Fury has spent most of 2023 stoking fires across social media and starring in his own Netflix series At Home with the Furys, but he will look to shake off the rust against Ngannou.
