Netflix Adds Former UFC Heavyweight Champion to Ronda Rousey-Gina Carano Card

Netflix has added a notable fight to the upcoming Ronda Rousey-Gina Carano card. It was announced on Monday that former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou will fight Philipe Lins for Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions.

Ngannou, who will turn 40 in September, is 18-3 in his career with 13 wins by knockout. As a UFC fighter, he became famous enough to appear in Jackass Forever and, like Carano and Rousey before him, he was in a Fast and Furious movie. He has also previously appeared on Netflix, making a cameo in Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon: Part One.
