Dana White on Jon Jones- Francis Ngannou

Reporter asked Dana White about the decision of Francis Ngannou to not accept a fight against Jon Jones. Dana White said that Ngannou felt he was in a position where he could fight lesser competition for more money and didn’t want to take the risk of fighting Jon Jones, who is considered the best of all time. He added that there’s nothing wrong with that, but that’s not what they do at the UFC. The UFC is built on the best fighting the best, and that’s the culture they want to maintain.

He said, “That’s just not what we do here. It’s not what we do here the best fight the best here you know.”

Dana White said he offered Ngannou more than any other fighter would, however it seemed that Ngannou had other priorities.

And it’s clear that Dana White wants to maintain that standard.
