Francis Ngannou is one of the top heavyweight fighters in the MMA community. He departed from the UFC as the reigning heavyweight champion in 2022 after his win against Ciryl Gane and went on to become the inaugural PFL Super Fight Heavyweight champion.

Stay tuned for what’s coming out of the ground”

While the post left fans wondering about the details of the initiative, the fighter came up with another post that showcased images of the fighter supervising the project. The post was captioned as, “Taking care of business”
