Ngannou – making his boxing debut – has called on the help of American icon Tyson.

The reformed Baddest Man on The Planet has been coaching the Cameroonian powerhouse.

And Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum has felt compelled to warn Fury over Tyson’s influence and Ngannou’s power.

Arum posted: “Mike Tyson is doing a great job training and advising Francis Ngannou.

“I’ve cautioned Tyson Fury to be very careful, particularly of Ngannou’s incredible right hand.”

Fury was actually named after boxing’s youngest ever heavyweight champ of all time.

So he was left fuming with the news his idol will be in the opposite corner against him.

Fury, 35, told Sky Sports: “I think that it’s sad, actually.

“The man that I am named after, a legend, has to go against me and then come out as a loser, having lost to a man who was named after him.

“I think that it’s sad and I think that he should be in my corner, not the opposing corner, but business is business and I understand that it’s strictly business.”

But in response, Tyson, 57, said to TNT Sports: “This is business, and he understands.”
