Francis Ngannou will face Alistair Overeem in the heavyweight category at UFC 218. So far, he has only suffered one defeat and is undefeated (5 consecutive wins) in the UFC.

'Dinho' traveled to Russia this week to be part of the draw for the 2018 World Cup. There, he shared moments with other retired players such as Clarence Seedorf, Lothar Matthaus, Nwankwo Kanu, and the Brazilian Ronaldo.
