Francis Ngannou has provided a brilliant response to Tyson Fury’s fight against Oleksandr Usyk being postponed.
The heavyweight unification bout between Fury and Usyk had been set to take place on February 17.
However, the fight has now been delayed after Fury suffered a severe cut while sparring.
Ngannou was quick to react to the news and posted a meme of himself mocked up as actor Kevin James. He then suggested that his fight against Anthony Joshua on March 8 should be for the undisputed title.
The caption read: ‘So me and Joshua for the undisputed title March 8?’.

Recently, Ngannou claimed that Joshua doesn’t ‘have the strength’ to beat him.
Speaking on the High Performance podcast, Ngannou said: ‘Never say never. Nothing is impossible. We don’t know the strength of Anthony Joshua.
‘Even though I don’t believe he has that strength, we’re going to find out. In two months, we’re going to find out. I’m going to be the one taking his soul’.
