Francis Ngannou’s next MMA opponent is going to be a 6ft 8in Renan Ferreira according to a recent development.

Ferreira who many believe will not be intimidated by Ngannou’s size and power beat his last opponent in as short as 21 seconds from the beginning of their bout not long ago.

Following the purchase of Bellator by the PFL, the new owners have decided to set up matches between PFL and Bellator fighters, so Ferreira had to fight Bellator heavyweight champion Ryan Bader.

Among those present to see the match was Ngannou who left after watching Bellator’s Bader get stopped. But not before the new champion called out to Ngannou.

‘Francis, where you at? I’m waiting for you, let’s do this. I’m the champion out here!’ the Brazilian said using an interpreter.

Mike Tyson who is helping Ngannou in his preparation to face former lineal heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua in the ring was the one who put the belt on Ferreira’s waist.

It is a known thing that only by losing to Joshua could Ngannou face Ferreira soon.

This is because the undisputed world heavyweight title will be on the horizon for the former UFC heavyweight champion if he beat Joshua.
