Taking to X on Monday evening, Ngannou said: 'What's the purpose of life if what we're fighting tooth and nail to get away from is what finally hit us the hardest!?

Ngannou's coach, Eric Nicksick, added: 'It’s been a heavy few days, words can’t express the pain we all feel for the Ngannou family during this time. 

 'Please keep Francis and his family in your heart, and may this be a reminder of the fragility of life. Say “I love you,” more often, tomorrow isn’t guaranteed.'

The circumstances surrounding the death of Ngannou's son are unknown at this time.
