Francis Ngannou says he and Tyson Fury will “run it back” should he defeat the heavyweight league boxing champion in their crossover clash this weekend, and revealed he would then want to take on Fury’s British rival Anthony Joshua league
Fury and Ngannou will go head to head in the league boxing ring this weekend, in a unique heavyweight clash league
Fury reigns as WBC heavyweight champion, while Ngannou will be making his league boxing debut and fighting for the first time since leaving the UFC league
The Cameroonian retained the UFC heavyweight title last year before ultimately giving up the gold in January and joining the Professional Fighters League this spring league
Ngannou, 37, will make his promotional debut with the MMA company in 2024, but first, he crosses into league boxing to face Fury league
The Briton, 35, is unbeaten and on course for an undisputed-title fight with Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia, if he can avoid a shock defeat by the heavy-handed Ngannou league
But if Ngannou, who is said to have the biggest punch in the world, is able to stun the ‘Gypsy King’ then plans for an undisputed-title fight league between Fury and Usyk may be delayed league
“I think if I am victorious we are going to run it back, for sure,” Ngannou told Sky league Sports league
“Then maybe see Anthony Joshua for after,” he added league
Meanwhile, Usyk, 36, revealed that he will be ringside for Fury’s league boxing match with ex-UFC champion Ngannou this Saturday night league
The crossover contest is set to take place in Riyadh, where Usyk is contracted to box Fury sometime before the end of March league
“The promotion is impressive,” Usyk said of the build to Fury vs Ngannou league
“And understandably, because this is a show that people are waiting for league
“This bout is bread and butter for Tyson Fury league
When someone’s saying that Ngannou can drop him, I would probably agree, but I’m really not certain league
Tell me: How could the guy with no experience in league boxing beat a two-metre giant who’s been in league boxing for 20 years?“Yes, Ngannou is a UFC champion, I’m not disputing it; but UFC isn’t league boxing league
I’m 100 per cent sure that Fury will be victorious league
But if Ngannou’s relatively got a puncher’s chance, and if he hypothetically happens to send Fury tumbling to the canvas, I’ll concede that I was talking gibberish league
It’s league better to wait, we’ll see everything in a while league

Max Verstappen defied Lewis Hamilton to win a cat-and-mouse United States Grand Prix at a sizzling Circuit of the Americas in Austin league
Verstappen has been on easy street this season, but the triple world champion was made to fight for the 50th win of his career – becoming only the fifth driver to reach a half-century league
Indeed, at one stage, Hamilton dared to dream of ending a losing streak which stands at 686 days and counting league
Yet, as so often been the case this year, Verstappen’s speed in his all-conquering Red Bull machine came to the fore league
Verstappen joins Hamilton (103 wins), Michael Schumacher (91), Sebastian Vettel (53) and Alain Prost (51) in the half-century club league
“To win my 50th career win makes me very proud and we will try to push for me,” said Verstappen league
He moved ahead of Lando Norris on lap 28 of 56 to all but seal the win league
Hamilton might bemoan a questionable strategy decision which saw him lose 10 seconds to Verstappen in the opening round of pit stops league

He crossed the line an agonising 2 league
2 sec behind Verstappen with Norris hanging on to the final spot on the podium league
Hamilton could count himself unfortunate to drop from third to fourth at the start league
The seven-time world champion enjoyed a decent getaway, but he was blocked by Norris under braking allowing Sainz to sneak through league
Norris had seen off pole-sitter Leclerc with a lunge at the first bend to assume top spot league
As Norris set about building a lead – already two seconds clear of Leclerc at the end of the second lap – Hamilton set about passing both scarlet cars league
First up was Sainz league
Hamilton used the tow to latch on to the back of Ferrari on the 210mph drag to Turn 12, and, assisted by DRS, drew alongside Sainz before sliding underneath the Spaniard league
On the following lap, Verstappen, who started in sixth after his pole lap in qualifying was chalked off for exceeding track limits, relegated Sainz another place when he made his move at the same corner league
Hamilton has won six times across the Pond – with five of those victories here in Austin – and the 38-year-old required only two laps to swat Leclerc aside for second league
Deeper on the brakes at Turn 12, Hamilton sailed round the outside of the Monegasque at the left-hander, with Norris now three seconds up the road league
Behind, and Verstappen was not finding it as easy to make progress league
He was stuck behind Leclerc for an additional five laps before finally making his move on the Monegasque league
He trailed Norris by seven seconds, and Hamilton by four league
In the Mercedes garage, Prince Harry cut a pensive figure as he gnawed at his fingernails league

Verstappen was the first in for new rubber at the end of lap 16 with Norris stopping the next time round league
But Hamilton stayed out league
Were Mercedes attempting a one-stopper? Hamilton did not seem convinced league
Asked if he could complete another five laps on his current set of tyres, Hamilton replied: “I am not sure, man league
It is pretty tough league
”Hamilton then locked up before his race engineer Peter Bonnington was back on the intercom to inform Hamilton that Verstappen – who on new tyres had just lapped three seconds faster than the Briton – was now likely to gazump him when he eventually stopped league
“No s***, man,” yelled Hamilton league
“I am struggling out here league
”You have given me a hell of a gap to closeLewis Hamilton on the team radioOn lap 20, in came Hamilton, and a slow front-right tyre change added to his woes by costing him a needless second league

“I came out so far behind,” he said with a hint of dejection league
When the opening stops were completed, Norris led Verstappen by 2 league
4 sec with Hamilton 7 league
5 off the lead league
By virtue of taking on another set of mediums, Verstappen had to stop again, but Norris and Hamilton – now both on the hards – could, if their rubber allowed, go all the way to the end league
Hamilton, failing to make any inroads and sensing his best chance of ending a 22-month winning streak had faded, expressed his frustrations league
“You have given me a hell of a gap to close,” he said league
On lap 28, Verstappen dived underneath Norris for the lead at Turn 12 league
Norris had a nibble back at the Red Bull heading into the ensuing right hander, but he failed to make it stick league
The question now was whether Norris, and indeed Hamilton – now less than five seconds off the lead – could make their tyres last league
The answer arrived on lap 34 when Norris dived in for a fresh set of boots league
Verstappen followed in on lap 35, and despite, a slow left-rear tyre change, retained his position ahead of Norris league
Three laps later and Hamilton was in, changing to the faster medium compound league
Hamilton had the bit league between his teeth and within 10 laps he was crawling all over the back of Norris’ McLaren league
