The moment was bittersweet for Ngannou, who was coming off back-to-back losses in the boxing ring and recovering from the death of his 15-month-old son, Kobe. The moment was fit for a highlight reel and now, days after returning home from Saudi Arabia, he's taken to social media to celebrate. 

Ngannou shared a highlight reel compilation of some of the biggest moments of his career including his win over Stipe Miocic, his knockdown of Tyson Fury, and his 20-second fight with Jairzinho Rozenstruik. 

"THEY MUST HAVE FORGOT," he captioned the video. 

The video, though clearly aimed at his doubters, could also have been a reminder to himself. After the fight Ngannou spoke about his mindset going into his PFL debut.

"It wasn't about doubts, more so about me questioning myself," Ngannou said on The Ariel Helwani Show. "At the end of the day, the fight is a fight, and it can always go either way. I know I was prepared enough in case I have the opportunity. But again, you don't, you never know what truly will happen in the fight. So it wasn't like doubt, but I was about to really discover how I can feel there in that cage, stepping the foot inside, knowing that it's no longer the same. I'm no longer the same person anymore."
