We are very interested in signing Francis Ngannou and would very much like to have him compete in the BKFC heavyweight division. We will send him an offer and hopefully fans will see him in the BKFC cage in 2023.
Earlier, it was reported that Ngannou decided not to continue his partnership with the UFC and left it.
Ngannou's last fight in the UFC was in January 2022 as part of the promotion's 270th tournament. That night Francis defeated Ciryl Gane by unanimous decision. In March, 2021, at UFC 260, Francis knocked out Stipe Miocic in the second round. Ngannou, 36, has 17 wins and three losses under his belt.
