Ngannou on Jones fight: New UFC contract first

Current UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou spoke about his next fight. Earlier there was a rumor that on March 4 he will fight with  Jones John. However, the champion said it was too early to talk about it. First, he needs to sign a new contract with the promotion.

“The Jones fight is the plan. But when you make a plan, you have to go step by step. First, let's agree on a new contract. It's still under review. We're all working on it, but we're not done yet. I want to stay in the UFC. But I also want everything to be right ... ”, - said the fighter.

Ngannou also added that he wants to get the right conditions from the UFC.

Earlier it was reported that Ngannou wanted to fight according to the rules of boxing. Perhaps the new contract will include a clause that allows Francis to build a career in boxing.
