Promoter Frank Warren is actively exploring collaboration opportunities with former UFC champion Francis Ngannou. Following Ngannou’s impressive performance against Tyson Fury in Saudi Arabia, the idea of working with Ngannou has gained momentum.

Frank Warren has now expressed his keen interest in establishing a partnership with Ngannou. In an interview with Boxing News, Frank Warren stated: 

He has come out of this a huge star, a hero…I will have a meeting with him and his people about working together…I will offer him a top-level fight…I would give him a shot against anyone in the top 10 and I think he’d beat at least five of them right now..

Francis Ngannou walked into the boxing match as the clear underdog. However, the much-anticipated 10-round “crossover” bout took an unexpected turn, with Ngannou even delivering a surprising knockdown of Fury during the third round. Despite the initial odds, Tyson Fury narrowly clinched the victory via points. Warren has suggested one of his top clients, Joe Joyce, as a potential opponent for Ngannou.

He said Francis Ngannou would easily outmatch Manuel Charr, and a showdown with Joe Joyce would be an intriguing prospect. Joyce recently faced two consecutive losses to China’s Zhilei Zhang, also under Warren’s promotion.

Amidst all this, Tyson Fury is gearing up for a highly-anticipated battle against Oleksandr Usyk in pursuit of the undisputed heavyweight title. However, the fight’s scheduled date remains a topic of debate. While there were rumors of a date in December, Warren dismissed this, citing Fury’s need for a well-deserved break. At the same time, Usyk has continued to emphasize that the fight must happen this year.
