A former UFC heavyweight has speculated whether Francis Ngannou could make a serious comeback to go head-to-head with the Jon Jones vs Tom Aspinall winner.
The thought of ‘The Predator’ fighting either of those two superstars is sufficient to leave fans positively salivating.
Brendan Schaub would love to observe Francis Ngannou fight Jon Jones or Tom Aspinall
On Saturday night, on the UFC Tampa post-fight press conference, Dana White teased that he had a large announcement coming that will drive the media ‘crazy’.
Consequently, the MMA community went into meltdown, attempting to work out what the mystery match-up could possibly be.
Brendan Schaub is especially intrigued to seek out out who the UFC President is talking about, with the content creator naming the one fight he’d like to see greater than another.
The thought of Francis Ngannou returning to the promotion to go toe-to-toe with the Jon Jones vs Tom Aspinall winner can be his dream collision.

In a video uploaded to his YouTube channel, the ex-sportsman, said: “Dana said ‘I actually have another news’. He goes, ‘It’s going to blow your guys’ minds, you’re going to be running around like chickens with their heads cut off’.
“Here’s the issue with that, because he did this at UFC 300. Remember, he was like, ‘You all are going to get blown away’. I wasn’t blown.
“Once I heard that, I used to be like, ‘What could or not it’s’? The one thing that will blow me is that if it’s Francis. Francis goes to fight the winner of Jon Jones vs Tom Aspinall. That will blow me.”

While the return of Ngannou to the UFC can be improbable for fans, it appears White is perhaps moving into one other direction.
Conor McGregor recently claimed on social media that he was in negotiations for an exhibition bout with Logan Paul, with Bloody Elbow sources confirming that ‘The Maverick’ has been offered the fight.
MMA Mania later revealed UFC executives were approached in regards to the match-up last Friday. They added that that is indeed the clash White was talking about.
