TYSON FURY wants Francis Ngannou to knock out his “piece of s***” rival Deontay Wilder.
Ngannou, 36, walked out on the UFC after failing to agree a new contract and has been linked with a lucrative boxing switch.

Wilder, 37, has even offered to face the heavyweight in both the ring and cage as part of a two-fight deal.
Fury – who shared an epic trilogy with the American – is rooting for Ngannou but doubts his chances against the ex-WBC champion.
He told Fight Hub: “(Ngannou) is big enough to knock anybody out. But I don’t think he does because I think Wilder knocks him out first.
“Wilder’s the type of guy who’s like a piece of s*** kinda guy, so I’d like to see Ngannou chin him, knock him spark out. But I don’t think he would.”
Fury, 34, is also open to fighting Ngannou should his title unification against Oleksandr Usyk, 36, collapse.
But a FOURTH bout with Wilder has also not been ruled out, with their rivalry still brewing.
They first drew in 2018 before Fury won the subsequent rematches but bad blood remains after Wilder accused him of cheating during the trilogy series.
Fury insists there is no animosity from his side but said: “I just don’t think I gave him a good enough beating in that third fight.

“That was a beating for the ages, I gave him some rattling punches. But he obviously didn’t take enough punishment.
“So don’t rule out a fourth fight.”
