Francis Ngannou provides huge update on his boxing future
Watch X Series live on DAZN on Aug 31
Francis Ngannou isn’t ready to walk away from boxing despite his next fight taking place inside the MMA cage.
The Frenchman will be back in a familiar environment on October 19 when he takes on Renan Ferreira in the PFL.
Last year, Ngannou almost caused one of the biggest shocks in boxing history when he dropped Tyson Fury before losing narrowly on points.
In his next bout, Ngannou was stopped in two rounds by Anthony Joshua, but he’s not ready to give up on boxing just yet.
"I never left MMA. Also, I haven't left boxing. I'm not returning to MMA, I never left MMA. That's the confusion,” said Ngannou when speaking to BBC Sport.
"The fact that those fights even happened, it was something exceptional. I had that dream for over 20 years, and I finally put it into fruition. That was dream chasing, a life-long dream I completed."
