Francis Ngannou appeared to awkwardly flirt with a journalist after his open training in Saudi Arabia ahead of his heavyweight showdown with Anthony Joshua on Friday night.

Fans got the chance to see Ngannou put himself to the test on Tuesday night as he demonstrated his striking power just three days before facing Joshua.

After finishing his training, the former UFC champion went to speak to the media and seemed to especially appreciate a female journalist.

When asked if he planned to stay to watch Joshua train, Ngannou replied: “I have something else to do, and it’s you!”

The reporter, Olivia Buzaglo, laughed at Ngannou’s advances and then took to X to give her reaction to the incident, posting: ‘Ahahahahaha ffs’ along with some smiley face emojis.

Some fans have suggested that Ngannou may have been referring to the need to talk to more media when he said “you,” but their apparent flirtatious chat came just hours after he also appeared to try his luck with Kim Kardashian.

Kardashian, 43, posted a photo of herself pouting in the back seat of a car on Tuesday with the caption, “I miss you.”

Ngannou responded to the post on Wednesday with a meme of a man pointing at himself with raised eyebrows as if to check if Kardashian was talking to him.

It didn’t take fans long to notice Ngannou’s behavior when they reacted online.

“First, Kim K, now a DAZN reporter… Ngannou today in hell time,” wrote one X user.

Others have also expressed concern that he has lost focus on the task at hand this week and believe it could hurt his chances of beating Joshua.

‘First Kim K and now this? AJ in 6 rounds,” added a follower.

“Between this and tweeting Kim K, I’m afraid Himgannou is no longer locked up. Joshua by KO,” another agreed.

Ngannou was also ruled out ahead of his boxing debut against Tyson Fury in October, but he knocked down the Gypsy King before losing a close decision.

Whether he is distracted this time is a matter of debate, and he won’t have Mike Tyson in his corner to guide him through the fight, but Ngannou is adamant that he will shock the world again by stopping Joshua in Riyadh.
