The day Dana White didn't show up to Francis Ngannou's last UFC fight to give him his belt in his win against Ciryl Gane.
Money was the main issue and in the build-up to the Cameroonian's return to mixed martial arts, against Renan Ferreira in the Professional Fighters League - his first, than if he was to leave and box - where he went on to earn a $30million payday fighting Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua .“Nobody mentioned the terms of the contract, the freedom that I had to do what I want which was never an option," said the former heavyweight champ.
Ngannou entered the UFC in 2015 and made instant waves, going on a six fight win streak that spanned across two years. “I thought he was going to be the next guy. I think his ego ran away with him big-time. I can tell you that his ego absolutely did run away with him. And the minute that happens to you in the fight game, you see what happens. You start to fall apart.
