Ngannou (15-3 MMA, 10-2 UFC) needed to remind everyone of how much unmatched power he presently possess and with a vicious Knockout win over Rozenstruik (10-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC), his message was no doubt sent. The fight was aired live on Pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN/ESPN+, following early Prelims on UFC Fight Pass/ESPN+.
Ngannou was very vocal about his frustrations with the Heavyweight title situation after going 4-0, with all coming via first round stoppage. He has kept his unbeaten record since 2018, when he lost to Derrick Lewis.
The UFC heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic is presently on the sidelines and awaits a trilogy rematch with former champion Daniel Cormier. This leaves Ngannou with no hopes of a title fight in the nearest future.
Jairzinho Rozenstruik on the other hand, saw his four fight unbeaten run in the UFC end with the loss after impressively accumulating the record within a year pf joining the Promotion.
