Deontay Wilder Drops Huge Hints About Epic Clash with Francis Ngannou

Deontay Wilder still has his sights set on a scrap with former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou.

Ngannou’s foray into the world of professional boxing has had its ups and downs. After delivering a stellar performance against former WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, ‘The Predator’ suffered a brutal second-round knockout loss against Anthony Joshua.

Since then, Ngannou has climbed back into the win column with a dominant showing against Renan Ferreira in his long-awaited PFL debut in October.
