It appears unlikely that Francis Ngannou's next fight would be for the PFL, which Donn Davis supports.
PFL founder Donn Davis revealed that Ngannou, who’s currently signed with the PFL but has yet to debut, won’t be fighting MMA for his next fight. This comes on the heels of Ngannou’s shocking and impressive showing against WBC champion Tyson Fury, whom Ngannou lost to by“The MMA Hour”
Davis assured that Ngannou will fight MMA in 2024 but that will likely be towards the end of the year. His next fight will not be under MMA rules because there’s simply no compelling options for him at the moment. “Everybody says, ‘What about Stipe?’ Maybe. I give him half a point. There’s 1.5 guys who are compelling. I don’t want to say who can put on a good fight for him. There’s three or four other guys who can put on a competitive fight for Francis. I’m not talking about a competitive fight. I’m saying compelling, 1.5 guys in the world, and one’s hurt for the next nine months and the other is under contract. We’re realists.
“We always said that that’s his business,” Davis said. “Our expertise is MMA; our global vision is MMA. Anything he needs from us, we’ll be there, but that’s his business.”
