After departing the UFC, Francis Ngannou landed on his feet in a number of ways. First, he would sign with the PFL and be named minority equity owner and chairman of PFL Africa, and would also sign a deal to compete in his dream matchup against Tyson Fury . Getting his feet wet in the boxing ring has always been on the bucket list of “The Predator” and there aren’t many better people to prepare him than Mike Tyson himself. Having spent a considerable amount of time together, “The Baddest Man on the Planet” offered some huge praise for the former UFC heavyweight champion. When asked how special training with a powerhouse like Ngannou was, Mike Tyson claimed the titan could knock anybody out and stated that he was completely unlike anybody ever seen in boxing history.
