Ngannou was reportedly very well paid for his professional boxing debut with the 37-year-old said to have earned around £8.7MILLION.

And the incredible sum didn’t just change his life, but also the life of his coach for the fight, Eric Nicksick.

The Cameroon-born fighter has been coached by Nicksick since 2018 and certainly thanked the American for his help after the fight.

Nicksick revealed that Ngannou’s generosity following his split-decision loss to Fury has flipped his life upside down.

Speaking to MMA Junkie, he said: “It was the most money I’ve ever been paid by a fighter – it was unbelievable,

“It was more than I expected. Obviously, Francis has always taken great care of me, but it floored me.”

Boxers are generally understood to pay coaches anywhere between five and 20 per cent of their earnings following a fight.

And whatever figure it was that Ngannou gave Nicksick it certainly left him grateful for the changes it allowed him to make.

“It allowed me a lot of financial freedom. To allow me to be able to enjoy my coaching, enjoy being a dad and a husband,

“And I get to take my kids to Park City this weekend, for my daughter’s 16th birthday. It helped us buy a new car.
