Francis Ngannou has taken a swipe at his former boss Dana White after leaving the UFC for PFL as he gears up for his return to fighting.
The heavyweight champion never lost his UFC title before deciding to quit the promotion, and has signed up with PFL for his next MMA fight, which is set for 2024. First, he will take on the boxing ring where there are offers for fights with champions such as Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua.
One of the key disputes between Ngannou and his former employers was his interest in boxing, with Fury making his intentions for a super-fight clear last summer. But that deal was never even entertained for the Cameroonian, while now White is openly considering allowing his current champion Jon Jones to face the Brit in a crossover bout.
