The anticipation is building as you prepare for the highly awaited clash between Francis Ngannou and Renan Ferreira at the PFL Battle of the Giants. This monumental event takes place on Saturday, October 19, in the vibrant city of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and it promises to be a night full of thrilling action and explosive encounters.
Ngannou’s return to the MMA scene is nothing short of spectacular, marking his first appearance in the Professional Fighters League (PFL) after transitioning to boxing for two years, during which he faced the likes of Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua. As the former UFC heavyweight champion, he is set to challenge Ferreira for the coveted PFL heavyweight championship title.
