Anthony ‘Rumble’ Johnson interested in mega-fight with Francis Ngannou

As two of the heaviest punchers in the UFC, who wouldn’t want to see a heavyweight slugfest between Francis Ngannou and Anthony Johnson?

Speaking at a recent media scrum (h/t MMA Fighting’s Damon Martin), ‘Rumble’ hailed Ngannou the ‘scariest’ fighter in the heavyweight division and went on to state that he would be willing to fight ‘The Predator’ under the right circumstances.

“I think the scariest guy in the division for them is Francis [Ngannou]. The scariest, not the best but the scariest,” Johnson told reporters on Tuesday.

“I think him and I will meet eventually but most people just want the fight,” he continued.
