TYSON FURY hopes to fill the pockets of UFC champ Francis Ngannou before he fills them in.
The mixed martial arts heavyweight champion made $650,000 in his last title defense and is currently on strike until his contract expires.
Tyson Fury is ready for Francis Ngannou
Fury insists that he will quit traditional championship boxing following the WBC title defense against Dillian Whyte on April 23. Fury has promised him a good paycheck and a good hiding place.
For the next Las Vegas crossover showdown, he is willing to take Ngannou's cage and put on tiny MMA gloves of 4 oz.
The undefeated Morecambe ace at 6'9in said that he heard he had beef with the UFC and was therefore unable to win the season.
"His time is coming to make big money, and I will offer him big cash, of course.
"I will be out of competitive championship boxing by that time. He won't win the WBC championship and I won't become the UFC champion.
"I will be available for the cross-over bouts.

"A boxing ring, is my home. It would be like him fighting a shark at the ocean. So I have to get out of my comfort zone to give him an opportunity."
After settling his Trilogy with Wilder, Fury, who will earn PS25million from the Whyte fight, said that he appreciated every purse he had ever received. "It hasn't always been 20-30 million. That's mega-money."
