Francis Ngannou, Tyson Fury, & Jon Jones – These three names have been entangled in rumors to fight one another for a long time now. Last year, Ngannou and Fury teased fans with a boxing bout between them, which has not been finalized yet. On the other hand, things between Tyson Fury and UFC champion Jon Jones got heated as well.

During one of his popular podcasts, Joe Rogan voiced his opinion, suggesting that Jon Jones would defeat Tyson Fury in an unregulated fight. Soon, Fury took offense to this comment and promptly called out both Rogan and Jones. The tension between Fury and Jones added fuel to the already intense rivalry brewing in the heavyweight division. But now, it seems like Fury might be snubbing Jones and going back to Ngannou!
