The former UFC heavyweight champion and PFL fighter Francis Ngannou will fight former two-time heavyweight boxing champion Anthony Joshua in a high-profile boxing bout on March 8.

In connection to a press conference to promote his upcoming fight, “The Predator” ensured that he still will return to MMA.

However, if he could choose between a superfight with UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones or facing Tyson Fury in a boxing rematch, he would go for boxing.

“Rematch against Fury, because I have a taste of unfinished business,” Ngannou told DAZN. “I wasn’t mad after the decision, but I still have this feeling of injustice. When you feel something wasn’t right, wasn’t just, I still have that feeling. I won the fight. I believe that I won the fight. That doesn’t matter at this point, but still I have that feeling and I really think I can do better.”

Ngannou has not competed in MMA since defending his UFC heavyweight title against Ciryl Gane in January 2022.
