Francis Ngannou has officially parted ways with the UFC and vacated the belt. Jon Jones and Ciryl Gane has been announced as the heavyweight vacant title fight for UFC 285 but there's something amiss... what happened to Francis Ngannou?

The UFC is not above corporate astroturfing either, so many paid trolls bashing Francis and defending the UFC without responding to anyone who counters them. These same trolls were absent when Francis beat Ciryl, and only came back after Francis left the UFC.

The president of the ufc hit his wife. Still has a job, no charges. Does a man who would strike any woman, let alone his wife, bashing someone for not letting him get his way surprise you?

The business doesn’t belong to the fighters. It belongs to the promotion. Fighters are paid by the numbers that they bring in. Why do you think mcgregor made so much in the ufc. He generated money. Ngannou is not a huge star in mma. He doesn’t bring in as many eyes as someone like mcgregor.

[@hendrixbase8748]

@@xhrys4444 you use McGregor as an example, yet Forget that McGregor's legacy is forgotten in a heart beat because of how much he clowned himself in the UFC. He sold fights by being a talkative and insulting person, burning bridges with fighters here and there. Again, all of this hasn't explained why there isn't as little as a fighter advocate. Or health insurance. Anyways, the Ufc's time is coming up soon. Everybody is beginning to realize there's more to everything than UFC. It may take 10 or 15 years but the monopoly the UFC has on the fight business will weaken. You UFC fans want to see wars and see fighters bleed and break their body to please y'all, but don't want the UFC to give fighters even as little as health insurance.

Dana came up with an excuse not to be in the cage when Ngannou beat Cyril in order to put the belt around him. Didn’t show up at the presser either. Avoided Francis. Francis reached out to Dana regarding negotiations, and Dana didn’t respond. Dana doesn’t like Francis because Dana can’t bully and intimidate Francis, like he does with other fighters.

This whole negotiation thing is really confusing to me, I don't totally get what Francis want from the UFC and what he expects to get outside it. As the biggest fight promotion company, leaving the UFC will be a net loss for him and what he wishes to accomplish. UFC deals are shit and especially for new fighters, but to hell with that man we live in a savage world, he really should have gotten as much money and exposure before leaving and then it would be much easier for him to box for even go to other promotion with good money already made and established title defenses.

Thanks!

[@Xxdandanger199xX]

Damn, this comment section is a neurons cemetery. Ngannou is about to realize that he made a huge mistake. He has no plan, no team and no manager. Can't wait till he negotiates with someone like Eddie Hearn 😂

[@UK-nf3ui]

They have no idea lol it's amazing, I love/hate the timeline we living in

[@Captainfricaqexksks]

I agree

[@tyrone2937]

Yeah he did fk up

[@bundubashing2591]

Why are you excited to see another man’s downfall?

[@tyrone2937]

@@bundubashing2591 OP was just stating the obvious here. Clearly you have no idea about what's happening

[@jeffmendoza6556]

Francis and GSP - true men with strong values! 🙏🏽💪🏿

[@RyderGroveSt]

Thank you for this video. So sick of hearing nerds call this man “greedy” and “scared” not knowing the full story.

[@silverslider562]

Navigating his exit with no manager was a bonehead move.

[@mooseymoose]

Fighter’s Union now!

[@anasshahid224]

Thank you Francis for standing up for the roster, trying to get health insurance, greater fighter representation, you’re a real one, willing to get cut but not compromising on your beliefs champ 👏👏👏👏

[@ansys5701]

Awesome work

[@MuhWasFalsePrpht]

the fact people think he’s making a example or can change things wont happen. Hes not a draw, doesn’t promote himself. he asked for things he just cannot obtain. UFC will not miss him at all. love francis but thats the reality!

[@safwankhan4434]

Both Francis Ngannou and Nate Diaz are showing if you’ve made enough of a name, you can stand on your own

[@scottdelbrah3002]

Francis Walking away from all that money despite his extremely tough childhood speaks volumes

[@theblackpuma9]

Well done, great video with context.

[@TheFightingBusiness]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Deens8496]

Excellent reporting sir!

[@nonamegrey1331]

Francis will be missed

[@yuy389]

not really

[@Frkc956]

Khabib also stood tall again the UFC by retiring at time and refusing any offers to bring him back. Congrats to Francis

[@1MarioRock]

Respect for the big fella! Not everything is about money its better to be respected.

[@m3ta7ron21]

Great work

[@rodneybillingsley219]

Thank you, this video explains everything perfectly and completely shuts down the narrative that Francis is scared to fight higher competition

[@Moses_CP]

I'm so happy for Francis, he didn't let the UFC do him from behind with no vaseline 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[@birdbangbobaruni]

Great topic thanks there shud be other leagues not just UFC

[@JeffBourke]

2:28 the look of surprise on his face hahaha that's amazing.

Sad to see one of my favorite fighters pushed out by the president of the company
