Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou Makes History Again With Latest Promotion
Fury and Ngannou have done multiple events promoting the fight. With two press conferences and many other media duties, the two heavyweights are doing their best to ensure this becomes one of the biggest fights in history. And now, they have taken it a step further.
Francis Ngannou shared a video on social media to show the fight poster appearing on the famous Las Vegas Sphere. The Sphere rose to attention earlier this year for its unique exteriors. And now, two of the most recognizable faces in combat sports are featured on it.
However, this advertisement set the promoters back a fortune. According to reports, it costs over $650,000 to advertise for one week on the sphere while the daily charges amount to around $450,000. Thus, the Riyadh Season, who are the main sponsors of the event, has shelled out a huge fee to promote the event.
