What happens when a world heavyweight MMA champion takes on a world-class goalkeeper in a fight? It’s a matter that doesn’t actually need a solution, and by chance, Francis Ngannou was just play fighting with Manchester United’s André Onana.
Ngannou linked up with fellow Cameroonian Onana at Old Trafford in Manchester, England, and the 2 squared up on the pitch with big smiles on their faces. Then Ngannou gave Onana a taste of what it could be like if Ngannou got a hold of him, and “The Predator” took down Onana with a visit and mounted him.
Onana, 28, stands 6-foot-3 and will not be a small man. Nonetheless, considering Ngannou just did an analogous thing to a 6-foot-8 Renan Ferreira in his PFL debut, it’s definitely no surprise the heavyweight Superfights champion toyed with the Premier League keeper.
“I demand a rematch in an actual ring! 🥊 Let’s settle this once and for all! @francisngannou,” Onana wrote in a caption on the video posted to Instagram.
