Derrick Lewis and Francis Ngannou are not currently booked to fight, but it seems clear that the UFC wants that bout to happen.

Lewis, who has taken verbal jabs at Ngannou in recent weeks, is coming off a third round, knockout win over Marcin Tybura last weekend. Ngannou, meanwhile, lost via decision to heavyweight champ Stipe Miocic at UFC 220 last month.

Recently the UFC’s social media team tweeted out the images and comments below.
