Francis Ngannou Declares Jon Jones Fight Would Be Historic

UPDATE: Francis Ngannou has boldly declared that a fight between him and Jon Jones would be the “biggest fight of all time.” Speaking with TMZ Sports, the former UFC heavyweight champion emphasized the significance of this potential matchup amid his ongoing online feud with Jake Paul.

In an exclusive interview, Ngannou stated, “You know the answer. You don’t need me for that,” when asked whether a bout with Jones or one against Alex Pereira would hold more weight. With a confident smile, he added, “The biggest fight of all time can only happen with Jon Jones and Francis Ngannou. That’s all that I can say about that.”

This statement comes as the UFC gears up for a highly anticipated event at the White House, with fans buzzing about the possibility of such a monumental showdown. However, it remains a long shot, given the strained relationship between Ngannou and UFC president Dana White since Ngannou’s departure from the promotion in January 2023.

Despite the challenges, White has vowed to create the “greatest fight card ever assembled,” raising hopes for a potential Ngannou vs. Jones encounter. The MMA community is abuzz, debating the implications of this dream fight.

Ngannou’s comments also touched on the recent controversial fight between Tom Aspinall and Ciryl Gane at UFC 321, which ended due to an eye poke. Fans are now questioning if a rematch is on the horizon, with Ngannou’s thoughts on the matter still under wraps.

As the situation develops, fans and MMA enthusiasts are left wondering: could this dream matchup become a reality? Stay tuned for updates on this exciting possibility and the latest news from the UFC.
