Promoter Kalle Sauerland said he is negotiating a fight between former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou and Derek Chisora, which can take place as part of Misfits Boxing night.
We are already in negotiations. I would like to sign Ngannou; I think he would fit perfectly in our crossover with Misfits. We can build Francis' career here, bring Chisora, have a big fight.
