But Ngannou’s manager has revealed his ideal two-fight plan for heavyweight boxing’s newest contender.

Marquel Martin, was asked what’s next for his fighter when speaking to the MMA Hour he said:

“It’s up to him. He’s in a position now that can do what he wants, when he wants, however he wants to do it.”

He was then asked what his plan would be should the decision be his and replied:

“Francis and I go back and forth all the time. But me, knowing that Tyson is there, I would love to see Deontay Wilder come into MMA, mixed rules, and that would set up the narrative so the world can see the difference between the two (sports). MMA fighters don’t get enough credit for what they do.”

It seems Wilder has been training MMA for a while and his team are apparently open to the idea.

Martin then eyed up a huge rematch with Fury:

“Knowing Tyson has his fight with Usyk, afterward there is the chance for the rematch, so that would be my take on it. I have too much respect for Tyson as a fighter to think he wouldn’t want that rematch.”
