Ngannou, 37, came into only his second boxing bout having floored Fury, 35, on his debut only to lose a controversial decision.

But White – who saw the Cameroonian walk out on the UFC to pursue boxing – was not surprised to see order restored in the ring.

He said: “If Fury trained for the fight and didn’t show up looking like he ate Tyson Fury, that’s probably the way that fight would’ve ended too.

“Listen, you know how I feel about the crossovers in boxing – that’s how they end, just like that.”

Ngannou signed for UFC rivals the Professional Fighters League, who permitted his switch to boxing.

It leaves his MMA future up in the air but the heavyweight star insisted his business in the ring is not over yet.

Ngannou said: “You can be sure I’m not done here. It was not my day.

“He was way better than me. It sucks, but it’s the game. We all know that.”

Joshua embraced with Ngannou moments after the stunning KO and even urged him to remain in boxing.

He said: “You’re an inspiration. ‘You’ll beat a lot of people. Don’t leave boxing. Don’t leave boxing.”

Joshua, 34, then added: “If you need anything, let me know, but we’ll speak another time.”
