“The hope, per PFL sources, is for Francis’ PFL debut to take place in 2024. Timing though depends on the March 8 AJ fight:”
“If he wins, they want it be backend of the year. If he loses, they want it to be late summer.”
“That said …”
“Ngannou not going in the cage afterwards seemed like small a red flag. ”
“I wonder if he was fully brought up to speed with Thursday’s announcement that the winner of the main would fight him beforehand.”
“I wonder. Maybe just a miscommunication.”
