Ngannou vs.Verhoeven? PFL Champ Eyes GLORY Kickboxing Icon

Francis Ngannou is ready to add a GLORY kickboxing champion to his 2025 hit list.

ā€œThe Predatorā€ has previously crossed paths with the 35 year-old power puncher and wants to establish himself as the premiere heavyweight fighter in all of combat sports

ā€œI have trained with him,ā€ Ngannou told Ariel Helwani. ā€œWeā€™re not friends. I mean, we met once at the gym. Yeah weā€™re friends, but not to the extent that we cannot fight each other. Weā€™re gym friends. Send me a deal.ā€

Ngannou, 38, returned to the win column by destroying Renan Ferreira atop the PFL: ā€œBattle of the Giantsā€œ pay-per-view (PPV) card last weekend in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Perhaps the only way to make it a fair fight is to stage the contest under boxing rules, since Ngannou is not a kickboxer and ā€œThe King of Kickboxingā€ has just one fight in MMA.

Seriously impressed by the ambition of Ngannou to face the best guys under their rule set. The word courageous is not sufficient to describe it.

I dont think its a very good matchup for ngannou

Not evenly remotely interested in watching them box. Make it kickboxing rules or Iā€™m outā€¦ tired of these circus boxing matches. Hardly is it ever competitive and fun to watch.
