Dana White’s Refusal to Have Conor McGregor’s $100M Like Success for Francis Ngannou and Jon Jones Meets With Jake Paul’s Snarky Response

Jake Paul is most notably known for his boxing victory over UFC fighter, Nate Diaz. He’s also known as one of the very first few YouTubers who decided to make a name fighting. Recently, Dana White’s words at a press conference offended Paul.

White was asked about a potential fight between Ngannou and Jones. Now since Ngannou works for PFL and Jones is a UFC fighter, the event would have to be a cross-promotional one. This did not sit right with Dana White who shunned the reporter away. And Paul just wasn’t having it.

“It’s a shame. Jones vs Ngannou is way bigger now than it was while Francis fought for UFC. Both fighters would make $20M+. If you one can co-promote with Showtime to put on MayMac why not with PFL, where we share the same media partner?”

The fighter said this from his X handle. Of course,

Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather was a massive fight. More importantly, it was wholeheartedly promoted by White. However, Ngannou only has unflattering words and a cold empty Octagon. Here’s what he said at the conference.

Dana White doesn’t care about Ngannou

White and Ngannou have had their differences over the years. The first time Ngannou lost to Stipe Miocic, White would go on to call it an “ego” problem on Ngannou’s part. The two have never really quite gotten along. Now, White has no interest in the fighter taking on ‘Bones’.
