Francis Ngannou’s rep claims UFC star Jon Jones was ‘Nervous’ during recent staredown at PFL event

Francis Ngannou’s manager still hopeful of a future clash with reigning UFC heavyweight champion, Jon Jones.

While Ngannou has certainly moved on to greener pastures, it is undoubtedly a disappointment to MMA fans that Ngannou Vs. Jones was not made. It was a fight that had been built up for years, but with ‘The Predator’ contractual disputes with the UFC, and Jones’ prolonged move up to heavyweight, it was never meant to be.

Both men now have big fights booked, Ngannou will be taking on Tyson Fury later on this year, and Jones will face Stipe Miocic in the main event of UFC 295.
