UFC President White on Ngannou's Move to PFL: Francis didn't Want to Take a Chance Against Jones and I don't Blame Him

Read More

UFC president Dana White commented on former promotion heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou's move to the PFL.

You’re gonna pay a guy not to fight for a year, and it’s alrea꧅dy been like 18 months.

Francis wants to take zꦡero risks, doesn’t want to take any chances. He obviously didn’t want to take a chance against Jon Jones and after we saw what happened with Ciryl Gane. I don’t blame him. I think the outcome would have been exactly the same. I am sure most of you do and Francis does too.
