The Natural Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 July's IFW UFC PPV: Jones vs. Miocic. Grasso vs. Shevchenko II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 The way UFC treated Francis Ngannou was abhorrent and promotional malpractice. Jones vs. Ngannou should've happened years ago, but it didn't because Dana White is a stubborn idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waffle Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Shev is gonna be regretting that spin kick for awhile. Jones looked great at HW. He's gonna be a force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the Stipe fight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, what happens after that is up in the air. I dunno how hellbent Ngannou is about exploring actual free agency. Doesn't seem like Bellator has any interest because he could come with a pretty steep price tag. Plus, their contracts are eerily similiar to the UFC's. His only options at the moment are PFL or glorified exhibitions with Deontay Wilder or Tyson Fury. The latter always comes off as a fantasy to me.

Or Dana White can stop being a sandbagging schmuck and pay Ngannou what he's earned and deserves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you believe Francis though, it's not about the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UFC has outgrown Dana White and he hurts them far more than helps them at this point. Let Dana White do his power slap garbage on Friendster.

I would have rather seen Jon continue to hold out or to fight out his contract and the Jones/Ngannou fight happen as its own entity without being under the umbrella of an organization or league.
