UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou insists he will not sign a new contract with the promotion unless Tyson Fury's fight is included.

Ngannou would like more freedom in his contract, and to be allowed to box with UFC approval.
After going under the knife last month for an ACL reconstruction, and an MCL repair, he is likely to miss the rest of the year.
After Fury's win against Dillian Whyte by knockout, Fury was invited to the Wembley Ring.
Fury asked his potential opponent about his manhood size and confirmed that he was going to battle Ngannou.

Ngannou reiterates his desire to share the ring with the Mancunian, despite not having been beaten.
During an interview with The MMA Hour, he stated that he would only sign a UFC contract on one condition.
"That is not an option. It must be part of any discussion.
"If I sign a contract that is basically the same as the one I signed, it's a disaster.

"After Tyson Fury, there are still many fights. There's Jon Jones and the Stipe [Miocic] Trilogy.
"I know there are big fights that I can do in UFC. I'd love for that to happen. We should all agree on a point.
"Yes, I can fight Tyson Fury on my own. But what next? I'd like to continue fighting. I'd like to see us reach an agreement."
