Francis Ngannou Says MMA Feels Far More Natural to Him Than Boxing

Alexandr Ormanji April 27, 2026, 3:30 a.m.

“I’m definitely more comfortable in MMA than in boxing, which I’ve been doing for a while now. Boxing was a dream, but MMA is the place where I’m king.”

Ngannou left the UFC because the promotion would not allow him to pursue boxing matches at the same time. After his departure, he went on to fight twice in boxing, losing to Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury.
