Francis Ngannou has openly vented his frustration with the stalling of the UFC’s heavyweight title picture. UFC heavyweight champ Stipe Miocic lost his title to Daniel Cormier in July 2018, and it took over a year to run things back. Cormier opted to have his first title defense against Derrick Lewis, then took his rematch with Miocic. After Miocic regained his title in August by taking Cormier out at UFC 241, it seemed a trilogy was imminent, but it’s yet to be booked. Miocic has been sidelined with an eye injury, and while Cormier mentioned that the fight will likely take place in June, the UFC is hasn’t made an announcement just yet.
