Francis Ngannou and Dana White are still taking shots at each other after the former’s move to PFL. Some people have backed the UFC president, while some people have extended their support to the former heavyweight champion. Now ‘The Predator’ has another supporter in Tom Aspinall, who recently shared his opinion about his new PFL deal.
Dana White recently revealed that he didn’t see any reason for the rival promotion to splash so much cash on Francis Ngannou. Considering he hasn’t fought for a long time, the 53-year-old claimed that his contract made no sense as a promoter. Meanwhile, Tom Aspinall appeared in an interview and appeared to have been happy for the French-Cameroonian fighter.
