    Francis Ngannou

    It's a boxing related topic now as he has just said his plan is to have his first pro boxing fight and by July

    Looks like this might be why he didn't sign a new ufc contract as that wouldn't have allowed him to box. So he's probably betting on getting a payday eventually potentially against Fury.

    Who do you think he might fight this year.

      I don't want to see another UFC star getting beat up in boxing ring.

        He should have stayed in the cage. He’s obviously just looking to get paid.

        He probably couldn’t beat Dave Allen in a boxing ring. These MMA guys can’t box for sh**.

          He'll fight someone like Chisora and probably KO him and do the same again a few months later to build some momentum

          Then we'll probably see a freak exhibition against Fury or Joshua.

          It's a money grab - and rightfully so.

            Even Chisora the jouneyman would KO Ngannou in a boxing ring

              Chisora would beat Ngannou easily in a boxing ring.

                Boxing doesn't need another Wilder.

                  Before the Fury fight I would have agreed but after seeing how BEYOND shot to **** he is, I don't know. He can't even move his head off-line anymore. He's a sitting duck.

                  Look, Francis is no brilliant striker but he has insane power and Chisora could get flattened by him judging by his last performance.

                    Ngannou gasses out so quick man and he’d have no inside game, even this washed version of Chisora would just get inside and maul him.

                    I don’t want to see Francis in a boxing ring, I genuinely don’t think he’d beat Dave Allen or Kash Ali, I think it’s been proven over the years that MMA skills aren’t really transferrable when it comes to boxing. Woodley had a big right hand and he got knocked out by YouTuber. I wish these guys would just stay in MMA but I do understand they simply just want to get paid properly.
