Dana White's comments on Francis Ngannou's record-breaking power have resurfaced ahead of his fight with Tyson Fury.
Although there are no titles on the line, the winner will be able to call themselves the 'Baddest Man on the Planet'.But while Ngannou may not be the heavyweight champion of the world, he certainly packs a punch which is demonstrated in the statistics.Ahead of his rematch with UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic in 2021, UFC president White explained why being hit by 'The Predator' is like being struck by a speeding car.
Note: we absolutely do not recommend getting hit by a top-speed car or a 12lb sledgehammer in order to see if you can stand up to Ngannou's power. But it does give you an idea of what Fury will be facing on Saturday.Ngannou is widely viewed as the most destructive pure puncher in the UFC's heavyweight division. It's a similar status held by the French-Canadian's hero, Mike Tyson, in the boxing world during the late 1980s and 1990s.
"The theory is, he punches long and when you punch like that, when he punches long, you got hooks inside that will move him around. Hard punches to the body.
