His victims, of course, happened to be of the highest caliber, namely - Curtis Blaydes, Cain Velasquez, and Junior Dos Santos. It’s clear that he’s deserving of a title shot but given the Stipe Miocic-Daniel Cormier situation, the Cameroonian has been itching to get back in the Octagon.
Despite not having to do so, he called out Alexander Volkov for a fight and in an interview with MMA Junkie, expressed his frustrations over UFC treating him like a gatekeeper:
He revealed that Alexander Volkov denied a fight against him not once, but twice - the first time in July 2017 and the second in August 2018.
We’re yet to see whether Volkov accepts Ngannou’s challenge, but The Predator won’t want to wait too long to get back in the Octagon, especially given that he’s taken minimal damage over the last year.
If the Cormier fight doesn’t work out, then a Miocic rematch will be in the books for Ngannou.
