The MMA scene is eagerly anticipating a potential matchup between Francis Ngannou and Jon Jones, now that both have expressed interest. Ngannou, a major star in the Professional Fighters League (PFL), currently does not plan to return to UFC according to his coach, Dewey Cooper. Cooper believes that any fight with Jones would need to be co-promoted with PFL, as they supported Ngannou during his split from UFC. The UFC's reluctance to embrace co-promotions complicates the prospects of this highly awaited fight, which many fans liken to the iconic Mayweather versus Pacquiao boxing match.
If Ngannou is to fight Jones, it would have to be a joint endeavor with multiple organizations.
He's not just gonna forget about that when the whole world said he screwed up and he blew it.
Francis Ngannou versus Jon Jones, that's the MMA fight that the world wants to see. That's the Mayweather versus Pacquiao fight that the world wants to see in mixed martial arts.
I don’t see any chance of Francis returning to the UFC.
