Elaborating on who he could take on in the Octagon, Fury continued: “I’m not afraid of any of them.

“Who’s the heavyweight champion of the world in the UFC? The American-Croatian, Stipe Miocic.

“I’ll fight him in a heartbeat, no problem, or Francis Ngannou. Any of the heavyweights they’ve got, I’m not afraid of any of them. I’m the ‘Gypsy King’.

“I’m a boxer, but I’m one badass motherf***er.”
