Francis Ngannou reveals he is still interested in Jon Jones superfight

PFL heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou has confirmed that he’s still interested in a superfight against Jon Jones.

Last weekend, Francis Ngannou finally made his long-awaited return to mixed martial arts. He did so by taking on and defeating Renan Ferreira, knocking his foe out with some utterly violent ground and pound. He became the new heavyweight champion in PFL in what proved to be a really emotional moment for the former UFC king.

After his win over Ferreira, Francis received some kind words from Jones regarding his performance. When asked about it all during his post-fight media obligations, he had the following to say.
