Hope this is for real, not only would it be a legendary dust up, but Francis really deserves that bag for sticking his neck out for fighter pay/benefits like he did.

odds (via BetOnline)
Fury -1000
Ngannou +600

Fury's a bargain at -1000 I think

I mean, it's great for Francis but I’ve 0 interest in this fight.
