Free agent Francis Ngannou offered a response to UFC president Dana White’s recent press conference comments addressing his exit from the promotion.
Ngannou, the now-former undiputed UFC heavyweight champion, could not come to an agreement with the promotion for a new contract, which resulted in his full release. The promotion announced the vacant title will be up for grabs at UFC 285 in March, where Jon Jones will take on former interim champ Ciryl Gane.
After the promotion’s first event of the year, White took questions from the media about Ngannou’s release, which were later met with heavy criticism. Now, Ngannou himself has offered his replies to White’s comments about why the negotiations fell apart.
