Video: Should Francis Ngannou's MMA return fight be against Renan Ferreira?

According to the PFL, the Francis Ngannou sweepstakes has a winner: Renan Ferreira will fight the former UFC heavyweight champion upon his return to the cage.

It was announced before PFL vs. Bellator: Champions this past Saturday that the winner between Ferreira and Ryan Bader would face Ngannou, and Ferreira left no doubt after he knocked out Bader in 21 seconds.

But here’s where it gets tricky.

The PFL’s announcement did not include a date or even a timeline of when Ngannou will return to MMA. That’s because Ngannou has a March 8 boxing match against Anthony Joshua, and what happens there will go a long way toward determining Ngannou’s immediate future. Add in that Ngannou was cageside at the PFL vs. Bellator but did NOT walk into the cage to face off with Ferreira afterward, and it makes you wonder if anything is amiss.

So, are we in or out on Ngannou vs. Ferreira being the fight to make for his return? Our “Spinning Back Clique” of Danny Segura, Matthew Wells and Brian “Goze” Garcia answer that with host “Gorgeous” George Garcia.
