“I’m here to help you win,” Tyson said in the video. “I’m here to help you be the best you can be.”
Ngannou, who is the current UFC heavyweight champion, is making his professional boxing debut against Fury. The fight is scheduled to take place on October 28 in Saudi Arabia.
Tyson is a legend in the boxing world, and his experience and knowledge will be invaluable to Ngannou as he prepares for this fight. Tyson is known for his power and punching accuracy, and he will be able to help Ngannou hone his skills in these areas.
