UFC President Dana White told how things are going with the new contract of the organization's heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou.
“I think Francis and I are moving in the right direction. Look, there's no doubt in anyone's mind that Francis should be in the UFC and finish his legacy in the UFC. And we are close to making a deal. This is my philosophy - we do everything in our power to keep the one we need. But the reality is that if you don't want to be here, we don't need it either, and I'm not saying this in a negative way. If we're not in the same boat, it doesn't work. We are either together or we are not.”
We will remind, earlier there were rumors that Ngannou will hold his next fight on March 4.
