Former UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou explained why he decided not to renew his contract with the promotion.

“Under this contract, I would not be free. Was not independent. Wouldn't have rights. I don't want this. I know that I did everything right. Nothing to regret. If I were given that choice again, I would do the same. They didn't want anything to do with boxing... I just need respect, just more respect. This is very important…”, — said the fighter.

Recall that Jon Jones and Cyril Gan will compete for the vacant UFC heavyweight belt.
