Francis Ngannou has finally found a deal with an MMA fight structure. After leaving the UFC in January, the Cameroonian just joined the PFL. And currently he is on a media tour to explain his choice. He was thus asked about the big regret of his career so far.
"I will always regret not fighting Jon Jones. Being in this position, what you want to do is test yourself against someone like Jon Jones, who presents himself as a GOAT of the sport," Francis Ngannou said. However, he gives a solution for this fight to take place, even if the two fighters are no longer in the same organization.
"If there is ever an opportunity to fight Jon Jones, we will do it. But I don't know how. Maybe a cross-promotion? If you're looking to leave a legacy in this sport, you want to fight Jon Jones," the 36-year-old fighter said.
Jon Jones reclaimed the UFC heavyweight title vacated by Francis Ngannou. The American dominated Cyril Gane the last opponent beaten by Ngannou.
