Ngannou has spoken out about returning to MMA

Francis Ngannou, former UFC heavyweight champion and current PFL fighter, has spoken out about his future in mixed martial arts.

"Right now, I don't know what to answer that question for you. I have a great desire to do boxing. I have to make a name for myself in this sport. I believe this sport owes me a debt. My last fight in boxing didn't go the way I wanted it to. So I want to come back and rehabilitate myself. I have to get my respect back. And in MMA, I have all that. That's why I don't know what to tell you. Maybe I will fight in MMA before returning to the ring," Ngannou stated.

We will remind, in his last fight Ngannou lost by knockout to Anthony Joshua.
