Brazilian veteran of mixed martial arts, former UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum is ready to “welcome” another ex-owner of the title of the largest promotion to the PFL Francis Ngannou.

According to rumors, the Cameroonian puncher will sign a contract with the PFL in the near future.

"Hey Francis! I shocked the world when I beat Fedor Emelianenko and Cain Velasquez. And then I became the undisputed UFC heavyweight champion of the world. You have many flaws, let's fight under the PFL banner. This is the only way to find out which of us is stronger,” Werdum, 45, wrote on social media.
