One of the biggest bouts in crossover boxing is scheduled for today, with heavyweight Gypsy King Tyson Fury (35), who has held the WBC heavyweight belt since 2020, taking on former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou (37), who is currently signed with the Professional Fighters League (PFL), in a 10-round main event. Fury’s belt is not on the line for the bout.
The fight is taking place in the Boulevard Hall in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and the once-in-a-lifetime spectacle is aptly dubbed “Battle of the Baddest.”
Fury is undefeated in his 15-year career, having won 33 fights and with one draw, and is widely regarded as one of the best boxers of this generation. Ngannou, on the other hand, has won 17 out of 20 fights, having lost three by unanimous decision, but is known for his monstrous knockout power and athleticism.
The main card is scheduled to start at 2pm ET/11am PT on October 28th, with main event ring walks scheduled for roughly 6:30-7pm ET/3:30-4pm PT, depending on how long the preceding fights go on for.

Other Canadian carriers, including Bell, Eastlink and Videotron, regularly offer such PPV events, but their websites do not mention the Fury vs. Ngannou fight. If you’re a TV customer of either of the three carriers, check your PPV channel or call customer service to inquire about the PPV.
Fury vs Ngannou is a fight that you don’t want to miss, but considering how limited access to it is in Canada, highlights of the fight on YouTube might have to suffice.
