Masvidal, known for his electrifying fighting style and candid commentary, minced no words when discussing the bout. He pointed out that while Ngannou is undoubtedly an apex predator in MMA, crossing over into the world of boxing is an entirely different challenge.

In an interview with ESPN’s Marc Raimondi, Masvidal emphasized Fury’s dominance and experience, referring to him as the “very top of the mountain.” He predicted that Fury would employ superior movement, feints, and an accumulation of fakes to control the pace and catch Ngannou later in the fight. Masvidal’s expert assessment aligned with the public consensus that views Fury as the favorite.

However, ‘Gamebred’ also acknowledged Ngannou’s potential for a historic upset, attributing it to the MMA fighter’s raw power and athleticism. He suggested that the initial rounds could be Ngannou’s opportunity to be unpredictable, gather data on Fury’s movements, and capitalize on his own wild, unpredictable style.

But that wasn’t the only revelation during the interview. Masvidal left fans on the edge of their seats by hinting at his upcoming foray into the world of professional boxing. Having announced his retirement from MMA following a loss in UFC 287, ‘Gamebred’ teased his debut in the boxing ring for 2024. While keeping the details under wraps, Masvidal’s tantalizing proclamation left fans speculating about potential opponents.

With connections in the boxing world, including his own promotion, Gamebred Boxing, Masvidal’s entry into professional boxing promises to be a game-changer. Whether he faces an MMA veteran, an influencer, or a seasoned boxer remains a tantalizing mystery.

As fight fans eagerly await the Fury vs. Ngannou battle and the unveiling of Masvidal’s boxing journey, the world of combat sports continues to provide thrilling narratives and electrifying showdowns.
