World heavyweight icon (up to 120,2kg), Junior Cigano used his experience to analyze the fight between Renan Problema and Francis Ngannou , scheduled for October 19th at the PFL. Despite highlighting the great strength shown by the Franco-Cameroonian, the Brazilian also praised his compatriot and revealed that he will help him in his preparation for the inaugural title fight.
“Both of them, despite having quite a difference in their fighting style, are very dangerous. Francis Ngannou , obviously, because of his power and strength. Knockout power, those incredibly heavy hands, knockout punches. On the other side, we have Renan Problema , who is a very skilled guy, and I think the moment now belongs to Renan. Renan is even my training partner; I'll be helping him prepare for Francis Ngannou ,” said Cigano on his YouTube channel.

In Cigano's view, the fight will define who really is the toughest fighter on the planet.
“This fight will define who will be the toughest guy on the planet. I agree with you also thinking of Jon Jones as the toughest, but Jon Jones has one fight at heavyweight, I think Renan and Ngannou's history is much greater in that category. That's why I consider this fight to be to define the toughest guy on the planet,” he concluded.
