He has now admitted he could not resist aiming a dig at Fury as he was sat down after remembering what had been said to him just moments before the fight started.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;When we touched gloves, he was like &#8220;let me take you to school&#8221;. I&#8217;m like &#8220;you motherf*****, you&#8217;re not taking me to school!&#8221;&#8216; Ngannou explained on his YouTube channel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/31\/10\/77214353-12692413-image-a-28_1698748377154.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Francis Ngannou knocked Tyson Fury down and then danced over him on Saturday night<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/31\/10\/77214513-12692413-image-a-30_1698748626823.jpg\" height=\"634\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Ngannou has now revealed what he was saying to Fury when he sent him to the canvas<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;That&#8217;s why when I knocked him down I was dancing in front (of him) like &#8220;you&#8217;re a bad professor, motherf*****! You&#8217;re a bad professor. How is that school going? Who is taking who to school?&#8221; Because for me, it looks like I&#8217;m the one taking you to school.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>When Ngannou knocked Fury down, it looked like one of the biggest shocks in boxing history was firmly on the cards.<\/p>\n<p>Fury fought his way back into the contest, but Ngannou still had plenty of success in the latter rounds, and when the final bell rang many fans felt the Cameroonian-born star had done enough to get his hand raised.<\/p>\n<p>Ngannou also believes he should have been declared the winner, and wants the judges to be punished as he feels he was never given a fair chance due to being a newcomer to the sport taking on an established champion.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I&#8217;m confident that I won that fight. I wasn&#8217;t surprised for what happened,&#8217; he added.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I&#8217;m alone in this game. I just came from another sport and there&#8217;s a structure, a solid business and then you just come to rob that. Imagine if I&#8217;d have walked out of there with that belt or with him being defeated for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I knew it wasn&#8217;t going to happen. I think it&#8217;s a shame for boxing, though, and those judges they should be sanctioned. I want to understand why those judges judge like that, because for me, to be honest, I don&#8217;t care that much about that decision, but I think those kind of decisions mess up a lot of people&#8217;s careers.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/31\/10\/77214453-12692413-image-a-29_1698748507708.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Ngannou had plenty of success during the 10-round contest, and felt he won the fight<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/boxing\/article-12692413\/Francis-Ngannou-reveals-said-Tyson-Fury-KNOCKED-heavyweight-champion-crossover-clash-Saudi-Arabia.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Francis Ngannou reveals what he said to Tyson Fury when he KNOCKED DOWN the heavyweight champion in their crossover clash [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":296021,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
