“I am no longer interested in organizing this fight. I tried to triple it for two years, but Ngannou didn't want to fight. He left the promotion without even having a contract with another organization. This is crazy, but Francis did not want to participate in this fight, ”White quotes MMA Mania.
Recall that Ngannou refused a new contract and left the UFC in January. On March 5 at UFC 285, Jones defeated Gan via first-round submission to win the vacant heavyweight title.
