Fury vs Ngannou October 28th

 The Crossover Fight

Current WBC heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury will take on Francis "The Predator" Ngannou , the former UFC heavyweight champion, in a boxing match on October 28th, 2023 and will take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.  The main event should be taking place around 10 pm UK time, or 5 pm EST and will broadcast live on TNT Sports Box Office , which was formerly called BT Sport.

 The fight is supposed to take place as a exhibition but both fighters have worded things as though it will be more intense than that.  It most likely is just to sell the fight, or at least on Fury's side, but maybe Ngannou is taking this a more serious matter. Fury's current belt is not on the line but the WBC did create a new one that will go to the winner.

To make things even more interesting former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson, whom Tyson Fury is named after, is training Francis currently and will be in his corner come fight night.

Fury vs Usyk Prediction

As of now there isn't any confirmed fight set in stone between current WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and new Ring heavyweight champion and defending IBF/WBA/WBO champion Oleksandr Usky, but Usyk did call out Fury after his last fight and Fury wants the fight as well.  Recently, Usyk said he has a injury so a bout by December is unlikely but could happen next hear by April.  If the fight happens this is what I predict:

I like both fighters but overall I think there isn't a weakness that Usyk can exploit with Tyson Fury. Fury has a great chin, stamina, can keep the range well, can bully in the inside and use his weight when needed, and has good punching power.  If Usky hopes to just come in tremendous shape like he did against Joshua he's going to find it hard to move in to do land anything against Fury since he keeps his range much better than Joshua did and if he does come inside to land he doesn't have the 1 punch power to give Fury any problems.  So his only chance is to try to catch Fury on points but in doing so he's coming into a much more ring savvy Fury compared to Joshua and will risk getting hit himself.  So my prediction is a late 9th to 12 round tko victory for Fury with a small chance that Fury will win the decision on points.  In either case though I predict Fury to win this when it happens.  

Side note: The only hope Usyk has is Fury's weight hurts him physically like an injury to himself in the ring (such as his knees) , or that Fury feels that he is such a easy match he doesn't train and comes in just at the level that Usyk could squeak by a decision.  At this time in Fury's career I believe he's mature enough to not let this happen. 

I also think win or lose Usky vs Wilder would be a very interesting match.  They are most complete opposites in fighting styles.

Ruiz vs Ortiz Results

In tonight's heavyweight fight between Andy "The Destroyer" Ruiz and Luis "King Kong" Ortiz, both fighters fought cautiously but both had moments showcasing their power in 1 and round 2 Ruiz dropped Ortiz twice. 

Rounds 3 through 6 showed more of the same but Ortiz was landing more body shots but Ruiz was able to counter with a overhand right on occasion and Andy had success at times going to Ottiz' body as well.  But mostly just back and forth with neither man showing a definite edge and minus the 2 knockdowns a very close fight otherwise.  It was such a strategic contest that neither had any major engagement throughout and round  

In round 7,   Ruiz stunned Ortiz and dropped him once again with only 10 seconds to go Ortiz gets back up and survives the round.

In round 8, Ortiz recovered well and was a close round. 

Round 9 had Ruiz stunning Ortiz early but he was able to hold on but Ruiz is definitely in the lead and won this round as well.  Ortiz would need a knockout at this point to win.

In round 10 , Ortiz had more success with his jab and was boxing well. He should have been using his jab like this the whole fight.  He looks very good behind it, but at this point winning the final rounds on points will not give him the win he needs/needed a knockout.  

Ruiz was able to catch Ortiz in round 11 and started landing and increasing the pressure on Ortiz. Ortiz stayed composed and the round ended with both fighters fighting cautiously. 

The final round had Luis Ortiz finally coming out with pressure.  He should have done this sooner and is landing on Ruiz, but Ruiz weathered the storm and was able to fire back as well.  The fight will go to the scorecards.

The scorecards read 113 to 112,  and 2 of them 114 to 111.  With the winner Andy Ruiz.
