🚨 Francis Ngannou eyes up fight with former heavyweight champion

Posted by

Francis Ngannou fights Anthony Joshua in March but is still interested in a fight with Deontay Wilder.

Ngannou makes his second boxing appearance when he faces the Brit, having only made his professional debut last October against Tyson Fury.

The 37-year-old has made the transition to boxing from MMA in style so far and has not ruled out a clash with the hard-hitting Deontay Wilder.

Wilder himself was due to fight Joshua but his recent shock defeat to Joseph Parker has scuppered those plans for now at least.

Speaking to Sky Sports Ngannou made his boxing goals clear.

He said: “I’m here for the boxing career and there I have a lot of challenges, a lot of names. For example, the top three guys that I’ve always had are Fury, Joshua and Wilder.”

“Wilder better get it together because I’m not done, I want that name on my record.”
