The Boss, you were happy to make Francis Ngannou vs Anatoly happen. I beat the guy, so let’s make the biggest fight in African history: Ngannou vs Reug Rueg / PFL vs ONE. Everyone has told me I can’t beat who’s in front of me every fight, so let’s test it against the greatest African MMA star in history. Let’s show the world what we can do!!!
