UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones said that he wanted to fight PFL star Ngannou, while adding that he would beat him. He was present at the PFL Champions v ersu s Bellator Champions pay-per-view.
During the interview, he said, “I feel like there’s a lot of fights the world wants right now. There’s the Tom Aspinall fight that’s really massive. Francis Ngannou and I would be really massive. And Stipe, to the hardcore fans, is still a respectable opponent.” He added, “I don’t know how the cards are going to fall. My prediction is that I will beat Stipe Miocic. My prediction is I will beat Tom Aspinall and Francis Ngannou. The way that it unfolds is really not my business. My job is to do what I’ve always done, since day one.”
