Arum: “We should see Ngannou in a fight against a top heavyweight”

American promoter Bob Arum commented on the information that the former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou will take tenth place in the updated WBC heavyweight rankings.

“We need to see Ngannou against a heavyweight who is truly ready for him before we can understand how good he is. But I think that with this experience and preparation, Ngannou is simply great,” Arum said in an interview with KO Artist Sports.

Let us remember that at the end of October, Ngannou made his professional boxing debut, losing to WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury by split decision. During the fight, the Cameroonian managed to score a knockdown.
