FRANCIS NGANNOU makes his highly anticipated return to the MMA cage TONIGHT.
The former UFC heavyweight champion takes on Renan Ferreira in a tough comeback fight.
Ngannou has had two years away from MMA, testing himself in boxing against some of the sports‘ best.
The Cameroonian powerhouse first controversially lost to the then-undefeated Tyson Fury on his debut.
Ngannou knocked down the Gyspy King with a left hook in the third round, but the judges scored the bout in Fury’s favour after 10 rounds.
In March, the former UFC star took to the boxing ring once again against Anthony Joshua.
Ngannou didn’t have as much joy against AJ and was knocked out by the Watford-born fighter.
Now, after a two-year hiatus from MMA, Ngannou fights for the PFL heavyweight championship title on his debut in the competition.
