    According to WBC president Sulaiman they are going to rank Ngannou in the top #10. So opportunities should come his way.

    Would like to see Wilder-Ngannou.

    He is absolutely going to box again because the money is going to be too good compared to what he can make in the MMA arena.

    Ideally it'd be Wilder and AJ next year, Fury rematch 2025. Lifetime securing generational wealth and then the potential to return to MMA with perhaps still a bit left in the tank. Either that or a two fight deal with Wilder - one boxing match, one MMA fight, or mixed rules of some kind like 3 rounds boxing, then a final round which is MMA. Say what you will about Wilder but he is much more likely to go for that than any of the other big name boxers are.

    Wilder, please.

    Someone gets KOed in that. Wilder could clean Ngannou's clock cause Francis stands straight up with no head movement. If he doesn't though, Ngannou will out muscle him and beat him down.

    Joshua or Wilder (probably not Wilder as he won't fight anyone with a pulse) need to just fight Ngannou and bomb him out in 3 rounds. That way we can shut all this bullocks up about Ngannou who's a stiff who fought a Fury who didnt give a damn

    Lol, to start with, fury acting like a clown and while showing that he has no ****ing clue about how to use the southpaw stance.

    ANY decent HW beats him. ANY of them. I told you, you will not see gannou again in the ring. And I hope I'm wrong.

    why would he not want another money grab?

    I don’t know if he wins or loses his next fight. I said this before the fight, Francis is just another hw on the roster.

    All the hw in this generation of hw boxers are weak. I don’t get any sense of mismatches by any of the upcoming hw.

    Tell me a hw boxer and I’ll tell you everything wrong with them and what advantages Francis has on them.

    Because he won't want to look like an idiot drooling on the canvas KO'd by a boxer way worse than fury.

    But, hey, if I'm wrong, even better. I'm looking forward to it.

    Ngannou lost the fight officially, but I think he definitely won the title of baddest.

    The fact that the result was even in question, is an instant win for Ngannou, although it's really sad that there's not an obvious "baddest man" in heavyweight boxing... Fury? Lol. Usyk? A master, maybe the best, but not the "baddest". Can't be Wilder, nor AJ..

    Who? Is the era just so poor that there's not one definitive baddest man anymore?

    Hrgovic is in a bad position, Joshua probably wants a fight with Ngannou, if we consider that Usyk vs. Fury could fight in February next year, Hrgovic will almost certainly fight Wallin, Wilder also wants to fight Ngannou.

    Everybody will want a fight with Ngannou because he is totally beatable for big bucks

    It will all depend on the next match, likely be AJ, if AJ starches him without worries nothing changes. If he beats AJ then it opens the division up and we may actually see some matchups.

    Main thing it changes is nobody will ever see this HW era being anything other than a joke when looking back on it.
