Former UFC light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans opined that Francis Ngannou in 2024 will be able to win at least one of the titles in professional boxing.

Last October, the Cameroonian made his debut in the big ring, losing by split decision to the holder of the WBC heavyweight belt Tyson Fury. On March 8, the former UFC heavyweight champion will hold another high-profile fight - he will face off against Anthony Joshua.

“This is a great matchup. Ngannou will fight Anthony Joshua. I think he'll win. I made a prediction at the end of 2023 and said: “I think Francis Ngannou will become the heavyweight boxing champion in 2024,” the American said in an interview with Give Me Sport.
