Ngannou addressed Jones after his conflict with the UFC

Alexandr Ormanji March 11, 2026, 8:26 a.m.

Former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou commented on the information that Jon Jones asked to be released from the UFC after he was refused thirty million dollars for a fight with Alex Pereira at the White House.

“Watching how this story developed was very interesting. I have something to say, but for now I'll limit myself to this: Johnny, if you manage to gain freedom, let me know. You deserve thirty million and even more after everything you've done for this sport, and they should roll out the red carpet for you.”
