Tyson Fury, Jon Jones, and Francis Ngannou – things are never cool between these three heavyweight legends. All three of them are willing to face each other, and fans are eagerly waiting for at least one of these possible fantasy fights to become a reality.
The feud between Tyson Fury and Jon Jones started months ago, after some bold remarks by Joe Rogan. After weeks of back-and-forth between the two, the matter went quiet between Fury and Jones, until now.
Recently, Jon Jones met Israel Adesanya and the two UFC stars buried the longstanding beef between them. Moreover, the two even playfully mimicked a sparring session. Reacting to this, Fury took some shots at Jones. Not the one to shy away, ‘Bones’ has replied in the same fashion!

Making the tone a bit more serious, the UFC champ stated that he is not afraid to face anyone. Moreover, he even hinted that if he trains in a legit boxing camp, he may very well be able to knock Fury out.
“I have no reason to doubt myself against any man. Give me some months in a serious boxing camp. I like my chances, I might just knock you out.”
‘Bones’ exuded fearlessness with this statement, as he remained unafraid of the idea of stepping into the boxing ring. It is worth noting that crossing from one combat sport to another is extremely difficult, even for elite athletes, and Fury understands that. This is why, the undefeated boxer recently dismissed the idea of stepping into an MMA cage.
