"That man Ferreira is dead" - Fans react after spotting Francis Ngannou's new arm tattoo in memory of his late son Kobe

Fans recently reacted after spotting Francis Ngannou's new arm tattoo in memory of his late son Kobe ahead of his MMA return on Saturday night at PFL: Battle of the Giants. They noted that it could be a bad sign for his opponent Renan Ferreira as they clash to determine the PFL heavyweight Super Fights champion.

'The Predator' and the Brazilian faced off for the final time during the ceremonial weigh-ins on Friday and the next time they'll cross paths will be in the cage. It's a highly anticipated bout and will see Ngannou compete for the first time since the tragic passing of his son Kobe.

Home of Fight posted a photo of the former UFC heavyweight champion's bicep which showed the new tattoo of his son's name and a dove:

Fans took to the comment section and weighed in by saying the 2023 PFL heavyweight champion should be worried. They mentioned that Ngannou is on a mission and will be making a statement with an emphatic knockout win against Ferreira in honor of his son Kobe. Meanwhile, others noted that his first tattoo is a special one with meaning:

"That man Ferreira is dead he just doesn't know yet [laughing emoji]"

"Francis by KO for his son tomorrow"

"Bro first ever tattoo is a special one. People just get tattoos cause they want to..."
