    Francis Ngannou tells Jake Paul that Mike Tyson will beat him: 'Watch out for everything'

    Francis Ngannou has no issue telling Jake Paul to his face that he will lose to Mike Tyson.

    Paul (10-1) meets 58-year-old boxing legend Tyson (50-6-2) in the ring Nov. 15 at AT&T Stadium in Dallas. Tyson helped Ngannou prep for his boxing debut against Tyson Fury, which Fury barely escaped with a victory after being knocked down by Ngannou. Having spent time with Tyson, Ngannou believes he will knock out Paul.

    “Yeah, I do (think Tyson will beat you),” Ngannou told Paul on “BS w/ Jake Paul.” “Listen, I have seen how Tyson moves around just like to show me stuff. … He’s still got it. Either way, I think Mike Tyson will beat you.

    “We’re talking about Mike, bro. Mike is something else. He’s a specimen. Mike will move from this side to this side without you knowing exactly at which moment – watch out for everything.”

    Paul called out UFC light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira after he stopped Mike Perry by TKO in their boxing match in July. Pereira was game for the challenge, but Ngannou warns Paul of “Poatan’s” skills.

    “He’s tough. He has some tough hands,” Ngannou said of Pereira. “I think you’re going to get some tough nights. This guy is big, solid, and he’s mean. He walks straight to you like, ‘I’m going to eat this guy.”
