Yeah, Dana acted like he owned Francis..., the relationship of the UFC with their fighters is disturbing. Francis said that he had let go of a Crypto deal that would have netted him over million dollars, but the UFC wouldn't let him promote that so he lost out on it: UFC has to control everything.I'm Happy for Ngannou. Spitting in Dana's face with this success. His first PFL fight gonna get huge ratings.
BTW.... Francis just set up a few other MMA fighters that want to crossover.
If MMA fighters show real skill against boxing pros, it starts to legitimize these crossover matches.
I know Sean O'Malley wants to box. We will see...
I agree that Dana handled that poorly after he couldn't sign Francis.I'm Happy for Ngannou. Spitting in Dana's face with this success. His first PFL fight gonna get huge ratings.
His next boxing match is going to get good ratings also. He’s actually the “A side” of any negotiations with HW boxers ranked 5-10.I'm Happy for Ngannou. Spitting in Dana's face with this success. His first PFL fight gonna get huge ratings.
Looking back, that may have been a good thing.Francis said that he had let go of a Crypto deal that would have netted him over million dollars, but the UFC wouldn't let him promote that so he lost out on it: UFC has to control everything.
