Jairzinho Rozenstruik makes a bold prediction for his fight against Francis Ngannou at UFC 249

Jairzinho Rozenstruik had no fear calling out Francis Ngannou, and he’s carrying that same swagger into their highly anticipated fight coming at UFC 249.

The confidence brimming from the 32-year-old heavyweight contender hailing from Suriname is actually nothing new.

Ever since he first arrived in the UFC, Rozenstruik has delivered on every promise he’s made with four straight knockouts including his recent fifth-round comeback to flatten Alistair Overeem this past December. Afterwards, he immediately turned his attention to Ngannou, who is widely considered one of the most feared heavyweights on the entire UFC roster.
