Eric Nicksick, the coach of UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou, has given a hint as to the date of his ward's return. The Cameroonian may fight at UFC 285, to be held the night of March 4-5 in Las Vegas.
"Everybody busy on March 4?" - Nicksick wrote on his social media.
Ngannou last fought against Frenchman Ciryl Gane in January of this year at UFC 270. Francis won that fight by unanimous decision.
Ngannou made his UFC debut against Brazilian Luiz Henrique in December 2015. That fight ended in Francis' favor by knockout in the second round. He has 17 wins and three losses under his belt.
