Francis Ngannou has made contact with Tyson Fury's advisors over a potential fight in June or July.
The Cameroon star has been heavily linked with a showdown in the boxing ring against WBC champion Fury after the pair agreed to a fight last year on social media. Ngannou was previously unable to entertain any official negotiations regarding a clash, as he was tied down to a contract with the UFC where he reigned as heavyweight champion.
News broke this month that Ngannou had elected to move on from the UFC after failing to agree a new deal, which now leaves him open to offers as a free agent. And 'The Predator' has revealed that he intends to pursue an agreement prior to Fury's potential undisputed clash with Oleksandr Usyk for a fight afterwards.
