Francis Ngannou is unsure of getting the title fight next. During the UFC 249 virtual media day, heavyweight contender – Francis Ngannou gave his opinion on a potential title fight. Ngannou, who has made quick work of his last 3 opponents, has been in the title contention for quite a while.

He has fought for the championship before, the ‘Predator’ took on Stipe Miocic for the undisputed heavyweight title in January 2018. However, due to overconfidence and lack of preparedness, Miocic schooled Ngannou. His next fight wasn’t any better.

Nevertheless, Ngannou made a successful turnaround and racked up victories after his fight against Derrick Lewis. He defeated Curtis Blaydes, Cain Velasquez, and Junior dos Santos.

Following his win over Santos, Ngannou was left without an opponent. Unsatisfied with inactivity, Nagnnou decided to step back inside the cage against another knockout artist in Jairzinho Rozenstruik.

Francis Ngannou does not care about a title shot

With Dana White wanting to book a trilogy match between Stipe and Daniel Cormier, the heavyweight division is hung at the moment. Although the President said that Ngannou vs Rozenstruik is a title eliminator bout, Ngannou is having none of it.

“Honestly, I don’t know. I thought my last fight was for the title shot. I thought this fight would be for the title fight but it didn’t happen. So I don’t know,” Ngannou said during UFC 249 Virtual Media Day.

The 33-year-old is frustrated and does not care who he will fight next. As of now, he is just focused on fighting Rozenstruik.

“Our division has been frustrating and held up for very long time,” Ngannou said. “The division is kind of a weird a little bit. It’s almost gonna be 1 year since they fought for the title. When is the next time when there’s a fight for a title in the heavyweight division? No one knows. I mean when is that fight against Stipe and DC?”

“I don’t worry about it anymore. My only concern is the fight on Saturday. What is next? I don’t know. And to be honest, I don’t really care about what would it be.” Ngannou added
