Francis Ngannou has backed Jake Paul's campaign to increase UFC fighter pay and provide long-term health care to those on the roster.
Paul challenged UFC boss Dana White to increase fighters' base salary to a minimum of $50,000 a fight, allow them to receive 50 per cent of the promotion's revenue and be issued with long-term healthcare.
Currently, UFC fighters are paid a minimum of $12,000 a fight, earn an estimated 16 to 19 per cent of the promotion's annual revenue and don't have guaranteed healthcare once they retire from fighting.
