Francis Ngannou has suggested a fight with Deontay Wilder is more likely than a clash with Anthony Joshua.
The Cameroon star reigned as UFC heavyweight champion before electing to part ways with the promotion earlier this year after failing to agree a new contract. Ngannou has made it clear he now wants to compete in the boxing ring, and this could include against WBC champion Tyson Fury who he has publicly agreed to fight on multiple occasions.
However in recent weeks, Ngannou has been in talks over a number of other lucrative options including a two-fight deal with American heavyweight Wilder. Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn has also revealed he held talks with the former UFC star over a potential switch to the squared circle, with a number of different outings clearly on the table.
