Boxing great Tyson Fury has hinted at a potential run in MMA, recently training with UFC fighter Darren Till.
One person that Fury would like to fight is former UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lensar and Fury believes he can finish Lesnar in under a minute.
“Yeah, I fancy a fight with Brock, for sure,” he said on the True Gordie podcast (via Milan Ordonez of Bloody Elbow). “I watched a few of his fights. (He’s) pretty handy, but I can flatten him. In a WWE match or in a proper fight, I can flatten Brock Lesnar in 30 seconds.”
Fury definitely has the boxing experience edge in a potential bout with Lesnar, but Lesnar easily has more MMA experience than Fury. The boxing star has already transitioned to professional wrestling, having defeated Braun Strowman by count out earlier this year at WWE Crown Jewel 2019.
The boxing star also stated that if a transition to MMA did actually took place, former two division UFC champion Conor McGregor would help with the training.
