Boxing legend Oscar De La Hoya<\/strong>‘s breaking down Francis Ngannou<\/strong>‘s odds of beating Tyson Fury<\/strong> in the boxing ring Saturday night … putting his chance squarely at “ZERO,” flat out telling us it ain’t happening!<\/p>\n TMZ Sports<\/strong> was chatting with ODLH — as he was promoting boxing star Ryan Garcia<\/strong>‘s upcoming return to the ring — when we asked him about today’s fight in Saudi Arabia … pitting The Predator, MMA’s most feared striker, vs. The Gypsy King, the best heavyweight boxer in the world.<\/p>\n “I think I have a better chance at beating Tiger Woods in golf,” Oscar told us … not mincing a single word.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We followed up … no chance at all?!<\/p>\n “Zero,” De La Hoya responded.<\/p>\n “I’ll tell you one thing about Tyson Fury and Ngannou. It’s gonna be entertaining, while it lasts I believe. Tyson Fury, you have to realize, he went in there against [Deontay] Wilder. He goes in there vs. Wladimir Klitschko, so he’s a fighter all his life inside the boxing ring.”<\/p>\n Despite clearly seeing no way the former UFC champ can win, Oscar still gave him credit for accepting the bout.<\/p>\n “Ngannou, I commend him for even trying this. I take my hat off to him for even trying this. He’s gonna make a s***load of money. I just think when Tyson Fury gets his number and his rhythm, he’s gonna play with him and probably knock him out.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n FYI, Francis last fought in January 2022 — a UFC contest — against heavyweight contender, Ciryl Gane<\/strong>. Ngannou won by unanimous decision. Tyson last fought and beat Derek Chisora<\/strong> by TKO in December 2022.<\/p>\n Fury is regarded as not just the best heavyweight boxer of his era, but of of the greatest ever, period. Meanwhile, Ngannou, a striker who puts fear in his opponents, has never boxed professionally.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Bottom line, there might not be anyone out there who knows boxing better than De La Hoya … but as they say, there’s a reason they play the game, or in this case, have the fight.<\/p>\n Stay tuned! \ud83d\udc4a<\/p>\n
