Former UFC fighter Junior dos Santos has called for an opportunity to take on some of heavyweight boxing’s finest.
Last night, Francis Ngannou went head to head with Anthony Joshua in a blockbuster showdown. In the end, Joshua secured a massive knockout win in the second round. It left many wondering whether or not MMA fighters should continue to crossover into professional boxing.
One man who has toyed with the idea of boxing is Junior dos Santos. Right now, the former UFC heavyweight champion holds the gold in Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA after knocking out Alan Belcher last weekend.

In a recent tweet, dos Santos has made it clear that he wants a chance to do something special.
Of course not
Tell those boxing guys to stop avoiding to talk about my name and denying fighting me.
I am the boxing in the MMA world that can beat those boxing guys, whoever follows the sport knows that.
Also I’ve been saying this for a long time.
It’s time to make it happen… https://t.co/HklvEARfYy— Junior Dos Santos (@junior_cigano) March 9, 2024
