“Always believe, man. Never give up,” a determined Francis Ngannou said as the shot focused on his struggles afterward.

If you want to witness what transpired behind the action, then Netflix’s latest project is for you.
Boxing vs. MMA dominated the talks last year, as ‘The Predator’ stepped into the square circle against ‘The Gypsy King’.

Mike Tyson, who helped mold Francis Ngannou into a boxer, shared the trailer for the upcoming Netflix documentary. “Francis lands that bomb on Tyson’s chin. It’ll be the biggest upset in the history of sports,” Tyson says in the trailer. The likes of Frank Warren tell the story from their lens, which was a promoting marvel. Isreal Adesanya, who strongly believes in the “miracle” of Ngannou’s hands, also greets the fans, giving an account of the latter’s struggles as a laborer in Cameroon.

Ever since knocking down Fury, Ngannou has gained a rapid surge in the boxing world. The former UFC heavyweight champion now finds himself on the cusp of a title shot in boxing. He will face Anthony Joshua on March 8 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The winner will be fast-tracked to meet the winner of Oleksandr Usyk vs. Tyson Fury.
Meanwhile, Fury is currently recovering from a horrific eye cut he sustained in the sparring session. That pushed his awaited unification fight with Usyk to May 18. If the British champion and Ngannou churn out favorable results, the fans might see them run it back soon.
