Francis Ngannou has insisted that he only meets Deontay Wilder in the boxing ring despite his rival's interest in an MMA bout.
Ngannou recently left the UFC and vacated his heavyweight title after failing to agree a deal with the promotion and its president Dana White. The Cameroon star had been regularly hinting during his contract dispute at a potential career in the boxing ring and has regularly been embroiled in conversations over a potential fight with Tyson Fury.
This week a new potential opponent has emerged in the shape of power-punching Wilder who has made a return to the heavyweight division despite question marks over his future. The 'Bronze Bomber' proposed that the pair meet as part of a two-fight plan which included a debut for the American in MMA.
