Francis Ngannou had to be convinced to believe that a boxing match between Jake Paul and this former champion could actually happen.
Paul is looking forward to his next outing in the ring after he moved to 12-1 as a professional last June.
After Paul's controversial Mike Tyson fight on Netflix last year, 'The Problem Child' returned to a young person but still beyond his Prime veteran of the sport in Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
The former WBC champion was surpassed in the Honda Center of Anaheim, while Paul Chavez JR dominated to add him to a list of boxing victims that also contain MMA veterans such as Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz and Tyron Woodley.
The last result did little to destroy Paul to face an active boxer near his age and weight. His rumors next fight, however, maybe …
Francis Ngannou shocked by talking about Jake Paul Boxing Anthony Joshua
Paul called Anthony Joshua after his victory earlier this summer. The ambitious plan was rejected by many as non -seriously, but the ball has since continued to roll.
And the most recent update suggested that the fight is good and really on the table, with Eddie Hearn Paul even calling the “leader” for the next Joshua game.
That has come a shock for the last man 'AJ' in the ring. Joshua spread Francis Ngannou before he ran the same fate himself against Daniel Dubois previous time -out.
When asked about the possible fight during an appearance on the Ariel Helwani show, 'The Predator' was then told in disbelief that 'serious conversations' are indeed underway.

'I have seen that, I am not even sure if they are serious. They are? No, come on. You don't believe that, do you?
“Bro, I think it's crazy,” Ngannou added as he shook his head.
“I mean, what exactly is the weight of Jake Paul? First of all it is, even if we don't reach the level of experience, the weight difference and everything is difficult.”
Francis Ngannou focuses on another heavyweight Ko artist
While Paul keeps his attention on the former opponent of Ngannou, 'The Predator' looks up an ex-heavyweight King himself.
With a lack of opponents that means an MMA referee, it is unlikely for Ngannou in 2025, the Camerooner wants his way back to the Ring jobs for his third boxing match.
The brutal knockoutist knows who he wants now, and it is the man who has long aimed Ngannou – Deontay Wilder.
“We have not been busy personally, but it will be fast,” Ngannou told Helwani about planned negotiations with 'The Bronze Bomber'.
“We have been set up a number of things.”
