Former UFC heavyweight title contender Francis Ngannou decided to take an interesting shot at former UFC Heavyweight Champion and current WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar after his latest fight.
The fighter scored a KO win over former champion Cain Velasquez in the headliner of UFC on ESPN 1 in just 26 seconds. It was a wild fight, to say the least.
After the fight, while speaking with the media, Francis decided to talk about why he thinks he should get a shot at the UFC heavyweight title currently held by Daniel Cormier. He also brought up the state of the heavyweight division and took a shot at Lesnar.
“For Brock Lesnar, he’s just walking around talking (expletive), but he never shows up for a fight,” he told MMAJunkie. “So let’s see.”
Lesnar was last seen in action inside of a WWE ring when he successfully retained the title against Finn Balor at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view event in Phoenix, Arizona.
He’s now slated to make his next title defense against Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 35 in April.
