FRANCIS NGANNOU<\/span> has revealed his stance on potentially appealing his narrow defeat to Tyson Fury<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The former UFC heavyweight champion shocked the world last weekend by going the distance with the undefeated Fury in his professional boxing debut.<\/p>\n


\n
\n<\/p>\n

Ngannou, 37, suffered a narrow split decision defeat to the WBC king, who he DROPPED<\/strong> in the third round of the Riyadh Rumble.<\/p>\n

The Predator believes he deserved to have his hand raised, although he won't bother appealing the hotly-debated result of the Riyadh Rumble.<\/p>\n

He told TMZ: "Who am I gonna appeal to? [The British Boxing Commission]?<\/p>\n

"I have no chance. I think that's just another way of humiliation."<\/p>\n

And a second showdown with The Gypsy King is top of the Professional Fighters League pounder's wishlist.<\/p>\n

"But I want to choose wisely, and I would go for the rematch first."<\/p>\n

Fury has the small matter of a historic undisputed heavyweight title fight with former pound-for-pound king Oleksandr Usyk before he can think about putting a definitive ending on his story with Ngannou.<\/p>\n

And Ngannou is seemingly content to sit on the sidelines and wait for the February unification fight to play out before deciding his next<\/span> move.<\/p>\n

The pride<\/span> of Cameroon<\/span> said: "My best scenario in boxing is to wait for Fury.<\/p>\n

"If Usyk can step out and let me fight Fury, I'll fight Fury, then I'll let them do whatever they do.<\/p>\n

"I'll go back, maybe do some MMA fight and come back with some people in boxing.<\/p>\n

"I'm planning to fight potentially twice next<\/span> year, [starting] maybe February or March."<\/p>\n
