What's next for Ngannou?

i don't think there's much interest to see ngannou in the boxing ring after getting ko'd by joshua. bellator/PFL really don't have any intriguing potential match ups on their roster for francis. i personally can't think of what ngannou should do next. any thoughts? are there any ufc hw's soon to be free agents? hmmmm. thoughts?
Rizin New Years Eve
 
Might as well feed him Bader now, pretty sure he's still the Bellator HW champ.
 
I think Vadim Nemkov could give Ngannou a good fight now that he's moved up to HW.

Likely gets knocked out like anyone else Ngannou would fight but it would be interesting stylistically while it lasts.
Yeah that seems like the "big fight" the PFL could book.
 
Jones or Aspinal or bust basically.

Or box Wilder or Jake Paul.
 
Everybody keeps saying Wilder lmao, Wilder is done. I really doubt the Saudis are gonna give him any more paydays after he shit the bed twice.
I agree. There's only 2 fights I'm interested in and unfortunately they won't happen...Jones/Aspinal
 
I don't think they'll do Nemkov as it doesn't seem like he wants to sign a new contract so he might be leaving next year and I doubt they take that risk.

So probably whoever wins the final between Popov and Goltsov. They're both good HWs but not a threat to Frank imo.

The 2millions guaranteed purse to face Ngannou would be the surest way to make Nemkov sign a new contract.

I heard Ferreira only got $500k in the end. Still good money but not $2m
 
Really....PFL are some dirty fuckers.

If you want truly scummy a girl fell into a coma cutting weight to fight for them and they haven't so much as acknowledged her.

 
Ngannou vs Fury in boxing? Maybe
Ngannou vs Werdum in PFL? Maybe

Honestly I want him to just to come back to the UFC and fight Jon. He got his paydays. He should come home and give the fans what they want.
 
I think Francis needs to find a new motivation for fighting.

He dedicated his last fight to his son... doesn't need the money, so what's going to work in terms of motivating him to fight again?

I could see him focusing on developing MMA in Africa for personal / national legacy, maybe also accepting one more big money boxing fight for financial legacy...

A fight with Jones in any format is the x-factor that would have meaning but won't materialise
Why would he dedicate time develop the entire continent of Africa? Would you say that khabib should develop all of Asia or Aspinall should develop all of Europe?

I would've understood what you would've said Cameron.

I hate when people act like Africa is one country and not the 2nd largest continent with THE MOST COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD WHEN COMPARED TO OTHER CONTINENTS.
 
Could see him having another boxing match against someone like Wilder, Chisora, Whyte, Miller etc then just retiring. As far as MMA goes theres virtually nothing there for him outside of the UFC.

Ngannou invested in, our owns PFL's Africa division so he has in interest in the continent

He already helps out his hometown in Cameroon

On this instance, PFL/Bellator seems to have been doing OK. It looks like the fault is really on her team, they knew the weight cut would be especially hard and still went for it. She is apparently getting better, fortunately.


"Davis (the manager) also revealed to MMAjunkie.com that Bellator/PFL paid the entirety of Silva’s fight purse and flew a family member from Brazil to be by the fighter’s side."

"Myself, her team, her doctor, the hospital doctors and Bellator have been working closely together in support with whatever is needed to help her recovery. "

The Jon fight is the biggest fight in MMA right now. It would be massive.
