Francis Ngannou and Renan Ferreira came face-to-face after the conference before the PFL gala in Riyadh. It was a very intense face-off.
A special conference call was held today to announce the PFL: Battle of the Giants. The event will take place on October 19 in Riyadh, and Francis Ngannou and Renan Ferreira will face each other in the PFL cage. At stake in this duel will be the PFL Super belt.
Francis Ngannou and Renan Ferreira came face to face. Both fighters had a lot to say, and at one point the former UFC heavyweight champion put his hand on his rival’s shoulder and biceps. Ngannou apparently wanted to see if the Brazilian was taking care of his physical form.
Disposing of great physical conditions, Ferreira decided to retaliate by clenching his fists and hitting Ngannou twice in the chest with them. Although earlier it might have seemed that the fighters were ready to jump at each other’s throats, both kept their nerves in check.
FIRST FACE OFF IS IN THE BOOKS!
