Daniel Cormier doubts UFC is upset after Francis Ngannou boxing fight display: ‘Why would they be?’

Former two-weight UFC champion and color-commentator, Daniel Cormier doubts the organization are envious in any way of former heavyweight titleholder, Francis Ngannou, following the Cameroonian’s stunning performance in an eventual split decision loss to world champion, Tyson Fury in his professional boxing debut over the course of the weekend.

Making his first competitive appearance since he headlined UFC 270 back in January of last year in a title unification victory over former interim champion, Ciryl Gane, Ngannou entered the squared circle for the first time against WBC heavyweight titleholder, Fury over the course of last weekend in Saudi Arabia.
