Renan Ferreira is set to score the biggest payday of his mixed martial arts career and he owes it all to Francis Ngannou.
After scoring a 21-second knockout against Bellator champion Ryan Bader in February, Ferreira earned the opportunity to be the former UFC heavyweight champion’s first opponent under the PFL banner. The two titans will square off on Saturday, October 19 when the PFL returns to pay-per-view for the first of its anticipated Super Fights series.
‘Problema’ is going into the fight with his sights set on shocking the world and spoiling Ngannou’s big debut.
