Ngannou is anticipated to carry on competing in MMA despite changing codes for this performance. He inked a significant contract with PFL earlier this year, agreeing to participate for that organization while also testing the waters in independent boxing competitions.

Francis Ngannou warned that Stipe Miocic, a man he fought twice, is not getting the respect he deserves when questioned about UFC 295: Jon Jones vs. Miocic.
Ngannou said, “I would pick Stipe, Stylistically, Stipe. I fought Stipe twice. Stipe doesn’t get the credit he deserves. Obviously, I won the second time but I know that I could have even lost that time. I know how good of a fighter he is. He fought [Daniel Cormier] three times and you can see how he fought.”
Francis Ngannou defeated Stipe Miocic by knockout in March 2021 to capture the UFC heavyweight championship. The victory served as payback for Ngannou’s 2018 setback to Miocic by unanimous decision, which temporarily put an end to his ascent through the UFC rankings.
After getting the gold, Ngannou used his improved negotiating position. He tried to get a stronger deal that would allow him to compete in boxing contests outside of the UFC by using his status as the promotion’s brand champion.
