Jake Paul has taken to social media to congratulate Francis Ngannou on joining him in signing with the PFL to make his return to the cage next year.
Paul and Ngannou will both be involved both behind the scenes and as fighters in the MMA promotion's move into pay-per-view after they have first completed their boxing endeavours this year. The YouTube star is due to face Nate Diaz this August before match-ups with either Tommy Fury or KSI ahead of his move to the cage.
Ngannou has yet to announce an opponent for his boxing debut or his return to MMA, but the promotion have guaranteed that they will pit him against "a major global MMA star". He is expected to box relatively soon, after being out of action for well over a year since his last UFC title defence.
