Francis Ngannou explains why he has not watched Tyson Fury Netflix show

Francis Ngannou had no intention of watching Tyson Fury's new Netflix show while he was training to fight the Brit.

Fury and his extended family were the subject of a series titled At Home With The Furys which has been a hit on the streaming service. But one man who wasn't tuning in was Ngannou who was busy preparing to trade blows with Fury in the ring.

The giant heavyweights will touch gloves in Saudi Arabia tonight in a mismatch which will crown the so-called 'Baddest Man on the Planet'. But Ngannou faces a tough task - and may not want to see any more of Fury after tonight, on or off screen.

"I am still re-watching some episodes of the Good Doctor. I'm thinking about going back to watching Suits," he said of his streaming habits. "I haven't watched At Home With the Furys... maybe because it came out when I was in fight mode. I was like, keep your s*** for you and leave me alone. For now he is my opponent, stay away!"

Fury has admitted to being frustrated during the filming of the show and at one point wanted it cancelled. “We got halfway through filming, and he [Tyson] wanted to cancel the whole show!” his wife Paris told Capital Xtra. “Yeah, I wanted out; I was like, a couple of weeks in, I said: ‘Is there any way?’” Tyson confirmed.

"I’d be on the phone with my lawyers, ‘Is there any way I can get out of this, I don’t know what I’ve signed up for again.’ I said I’d never do it again, I’ve done it again, I’ve made a mistake.

"That’s just my bipolar going up and down all the time, one minute I’m happy, the next minute I’m not and it’s very evident to see my emotional roller-coaster throughout this episode. And people are going to be shocked, because I can take 10 turns in an hour."
