Francis
Ngannou recently returned to Cameroon for the first time since
winning the UFC heavyweight championship, and he was greeted with a
hero’s welcome.
“The Predator” arrived in his home country to a rowdy reception as
he put the belt on his mother and then drove through the streets of
Douala for a championship parade as thousands celebrated his
victory.
Ngannou claimed heavyweight gold with a second-round knockout of
Stipe
Miocic at UFC 260 on March 27. The 34-year-old was in talks to
face former 205-pound king Jon Jones for
his first title defense, but those negotiations have stalled. Now,
a rematch with Derrick
Lewis appears to have been targeted for a future event.
