@@MM33003only crook is Dana, Francis was making chump change during his fights. He lost to Stipe and had to go through five more fights to get to the title fight and all those 5, he had poor negotiation with Dana regarding pay. This was bound to happen, Dana would've had a great heavyweight division if he kept ngannou. Imagine ngannou Vs tom aspinall 🤣🤣🤣
Francis waited for Jones for years. Where was Jones when Francis was champ. Jones was not fighting Francis. As soon as Francis walked out the door. Jones came back. Dana calling you out your champ vs Francis. Talk the talk about Jones why not make it happen. Your the only guy that holding this fight back PFL wants to work with you on Jones fighting Francis. You scared your boy can't beat Francis. We want it every mma fan wants it. Even Rogan would love to see it. I can't see how both PFL and UFC can't make this super fight. Never gave us GSP vs Spider. When GSP wanted it. I am a big fan of Dana. Sometimes I like him to stop talking about how great his fighters are and just allow things to happen. Maybe Dana doesn't want another Ice Man lost to another promotion. He learned his lessen. UFC might not have all the best fighters.
You are destroying UFC. Dana! Your fighters will follow his lead. Dana is clearly bitter. Ngannou is building his legacy. His story hasn't come to an end. That's his destiny. You ve been defeated Dana. You are ridiculous. More talks more elevation of Ngannou.
The media always fishes these rants out of Dana. Otherwise he would never mention Francis, just leave it alone. Francis has nothing to do with the UFC anymore
Was it really because Francis told Dana to get the jet plane ready or something like that? Thats what i remember Dana getting butthurt over during the build up to the first Stipe fight
If you’re going to say someone is a bad person publicly you have to give some evidence. It’s illegal for a former employer to bad mouth you so congrats Dan, you are the proud father of a new lawsuit 🎉
Answer should have been... "Francis is no longer under contract with the UFC I have nothing to say about Francis" I understand the back and forth but Dana could've been wiser.
Francis was a refugee, he trained rent free in local gym/at first lived there, and also he learned alot or basic skills in combat sports there, from the owner/head coach. Even after signing contracts with UFC and making it to mainstream he didn’t pay his respects nor reimburse the kindness and generosity/charity that was given to him. I know he had an uneasy/tough life growing up, it doesnt excuse this type of behaviour. I do agree as a martial artist he is one of the best in his weight class/division, as a fighter he’s allowed to get the most competitive/lucrative pay nothing wrong with that as well. My issue is as a martial artist to be sensationalized as an icon he’s not even close, sure many other “greatests” of all time has made a lot of mistakes, but they admitted their failures and made reconciliation efforts to repair their past mistakes. He has done non of those things. To me thats pretty shitty. When you had nothing people let you live at their gym/boxing club, rent free, coach you, share with you their food from time to time. You owed them at minimum their rent and didnt pay them a penny even when you were making half a mil a year. Hows that for sincere gratitude?
I dont know, or care, if Francis was a bad guy. The UFC didn't want to work with him because he wasn't bringing in massive PPV sells and he was trying to talk about a part of the business he knows nothing about (contract negotiations). To me, it's fair to dislike Francis for that.
Francis isn't a bad guy but he was acting a bit douchey when he ignored Ciryl Gane and denied they trained together. Other than that he seems pretty chill
Francis is such a bad guy He went back to Africa to give back! He so bad the left the ufc because he was not paid right! He so bad no one I mean no one came out to expose him! For being such a bad person! Like come on Dana you just mad! He refused to take low pay 😂 But let’s wait for the story then Dana I wanna hear it
So Francis shouldn't be about the money? This is a JOB for these fighters. Being a champ provides you with leverage. Francis wanted more, the ufc said no so, he walked away and got opportunities elsewhere. Sounds like a good business man and one hell of a fighter.
It's crazy to hear Dana say that francis didn't want to fight jones. Francis went to a different sport to take on arguably one of the most dominant boxers in history and effectively won that match and knocked Fury on his ass. Ngganou isn't afraid of Jones in MMA or any other capacity. This is the same guy that says jones shoukd be P4P #1 when he's barely fought in the last 5 years
I love in the comments everyone assumes Francis is what he shows you. He’s a giant who talks real soft. The man could have been marketed better than any other fighter. Dana loves that shit so for Dana to give that up he must have a different experience then we do. Dana is t the first to say bad things about Francis. You guys forget about the coach that basically made Francis when he was a homeless immigrant. Ask that guy about Francis
Fernand Lopez is a well known asshole himself. Of course he's gonna trash Francis too after he walked away. Look at Ciryl Gane. Failed at getting the undisputed title twice because he just has zero improvement under Lopez. Francis peeped this after the first Stipe fight and walked away. He became the undisputed world champion afterwards. People like you need to do some serious introspection. You can't tell me someone who glazes Jon Jones on a daily basis is a good judge of character lmao. Ask Erick Nicksick, Doowey Cooper, Israel Adesanya, Kamaru Usman about the real Francis
It’s less I think Francis is this saint. More like Dana a money grubbing scumbag. Even if you believe his words man even contradicts himself. “He took contract to give him more money” few sentences later “He would of made more money he just scared”
He’s a bad guy? Why? Because he knew his worth as a boxer and a fighter and you didn’t? Be humble and accept he made the right choice and he was bad for business demonstrating his true worth without you.
He was already the biggest star in UFC and Jones was hiding. Francis left with nothing much to do at UFC. He beat all the best HWs except Aspinall by 2yrs back.
As Africans, we’ve endured life the hard way. You can’t manipulate, intimidate, or dominate someone who has spent their entire life honing survival skills just to secure a meal while constantly facing violence from a young age. In a continent where human rights often feel nonexistent, this hardship has shaped some of us into individuals who are stronger and virtually invincible.

@@billj4525 francis is almost 40 years old but still went to boxing and dropped the undefeated wbc champion at the time, with many pro boxers saying he won on points. This is a huge win.
Francis is 100x the man Jon Jones is, and 1000x the man Dana White is
Eric Nicksick thinks Francis is a good guy. I'll take his word on it
Stop asking Dana questions about Francis. He’s never fighting in the UFC. He’s 38 years old and is on contract with the PFL. Let it go.
So just admit he ducked Jon Jones. No shame in that but admit it
@@DylanDockerbut he waited for Jon jones for 2-3 years
@@E.M.jansnow no he didn't
Let it go??? He is an undefeated UFC heavyweight champion and made more money than anybody on UFC roster bar connor, even him had to get rich by mayweather
@@DylanDockerJon “Coke Pill Popping Steroid taking wife beating crashing into a pregnant lady and running away, hooker beating, USADA ducking, eye poking cheating ahh” Jones took 3 years to “bulk” to heavyweight and finally came back when Francis left and got given the easiest match up in Cyril “Bon-Fraude” Gane.
bro his son just died. have so sympathy please
After leaving UFC, it was Francis who started the beef
Doesn’t change the fact that Francis is a crook.
@@MM33003only crook is Dana, Francis was making chump change during his fights. He lost to Stipe and had to go through five more fights to get to the title fight and all those 5, he had poor negotiation with Dana regarding pay. This was bound to happen, Dana would've had a great heavyweight division if he kept ngannou. Imagine ngannou Vs tom aspinall 🤣🤣🤣
@@MM33003a crook?
Wrap it up bro it's been long enough
This is coming from a guy who hits his wife.
And cheats on her
Self-defense! She hits him first!
Self defense… that woman ain’t not a saint
@@Gerry363c “ain’t not” 😂
@@Tac0maAr0ma message has reached you. Mission accomplished
Francis waited for Jones for years. Where was Jones when Francis was champ. Jones was not fighting Francis. As soon as Francis walked out the door. Jones came back. Dana calling you out your champ vs Francis. Talk the talk about Jones why not make it happen. Your the only guy that holding this fight back PFL wants to work with you on Jones fighting Francis. You scared your boy can't beat Francis. We want it every mma fan wants it. Even Rogan would love to see it. I can't see how both PFL and UFC can't make this super fight. Never gave us GSP vs Spider. When GSP wanted it. I am a big fan of Dana. Sometimes I like him to stop talking about how great his fighters are and just allow things to happen. Maybe Dana doesn't want another Ice Man lost to another promotion. He learned his lessen. UFC might not have all the best fighters.
You are destroying UFC. Dana! Your fighters will follow his lead. Dana is clearly bitter. Ngannou is building his legacy. His story hasn't come to an end. That's his destiny. You ve been defeated Dana. You are ridiculous. More talks more elevation of Ngannou.
Francis is a bad guy. Why can't he be like the P4P nicest guy Jon Jones?
Lost respect for dana
I'm sure he's gonna have couple sleepless nights cause of this horrfic information.
Took you this long?
Dana has proved to be a 🤡. Every time he talks about Francis he shows what a hater he really is.
Whos defended Francis ngannou more than me -Dana
This the same guy who said “if I’m Jon jones watching this fight I’ll be moving to 85”
Hypocrisy in it's pure
“Stipe beat the shit out of him” ahahhaha in reality stipe sat on him. Then In the rematch, stipe got sent into the shadow realm 😂
The media always fishes these rants out of Dana. Otherwise he would never mention Francis, just leave it alone. Francis has nothing to do with the UFC anymore
Exactly
Then just say he's not a current fighter in the ufc anymore and no comment.
Be a man hold him accountable
Hahahaha you've got to be kidding with this comment.
THATS your critique of the mma media?
Mr. White, I highly recommend you stop bad mouthing Francis. It makes you look very bad.
Dana really hates Francis 😅
Dana really hates not being able to enslave a fighter. 👁️
Was it really because Francis told Dana to get the jet plane ready or something like that? Thats what i remember Dana getting butthurt over during the build up to the first Stipe fight
Still salty af lol
If you’re going to say someone is a bad person publicly you have to give some evidence. It’s illegal for a former employer to bad mouth you so congrats Dan, you are the proud father of a new lawsuit 🎉
😂😂😂😂
Dana we don't believe you.
Stipe beat the shit out of him, the first fight and then uh...um...😂😂😂😂
Francia whooped the devil outta him.
Folded him like a pretzel
Dana White's head be like: "Ngannou Ngannou Ngannou Ngannou Ngannou...😤😤🤯"
He got asked the question?
Funny if you translate it
It's clear dana white always regret to lost Francis, that why he like to comment about him.
translation Francis won't let me use him
Dana crybaby
- Doesn't pay Francis his worth
- Gets mad when Francis demands it
- Throws cheap shots cuz he can't handle the loss
Dana White everybody
"He is not nice" translation : "he doesn't submit to my rules like the other fighters"
Answer should have been... "Francis is no longer under contract with the UFC I have nothing to say about Francis" I understand the back and forth but Dana could've been wiser.
Uneducated man with a lot of money.
Dana is low quality. He'll never understand being classy.
Francis was a refugee, he trained rent free in local gym/at first lived there, and also he learned alot or basic skills in combat sports there, from the owner/head coach. Even after signing contracts with UFC and making it to mainstream he didn’t pay his respects nor reimburse the kindness and generosity/charity that was given to him. I know he had an uneasy/tough life growing up, it doesnt excuse this type of behaviour. I do agree as a martial artist he is one of the best in his weight class/division, as a fighter he’s allowed to get the most competitive/lucrative pay nothing wrong with that as well. My issue is as a martial artist to be sensationalized as an icon he’s not even close, sure many other “greatests” of all time has made a lot of mistakes, but they admitted their failures and made reconciliation efforts to repair their past mistakes. He has done non of those things. To me thats pretty shitty. When you had nothing people let you live at their gym/boxing club, rent free, coach you, share with you their food from time to time. You owed them at minimum their rent and didnt pay them a penny even when you were making half a mil a year. Hows that for sincere gratitude?
“Francis was a rat because DANA WHITE said he was a rat” Dana going Donnie Brasco style.
I dont know, or care, if Francis was a bad guy. The UFC didn't want to work with him because he wasn't bringing in massive PPV sells and he was trying to talk about a part of the business he knows nothing about (contract negotiations). To me, it's fair to dislike Francis for that.
Said the same thing about Randy Cotoure
Francis isn't a bad guy but he was acting a bit douchey when he ignored Ciryl Gane and denied they trained together. Other than that he seems pretty chill
$1 per ppv and 500k base is what most Champs get. Good on Fracis for making millions in Boxing.
Francis is such a bad guy
He went back to Africa to give back! He so bad the left the ufc because he was not paid right!
He so bad no one I mean no one came out to expose him! For being such a bad person!
Like come on Dana you just mad! He refused to take low pay 😂
But let’s wait for the story then Dana I wanna hear it
Defamation of character
100% he should sue
Not one time has Dana even mentioned Francis losing his kid. Takes two seconds to say sorry for your loss.
Absolutely rent free in Dana's head
The UFC was never about money. The culture changed when mcgregor came in was all about money & everybody became all about the money
🤣🤣🤣 never has projection been defined more beautifully
How you gunna cut it when Dana finally says Tom aspinall deserves the fight
I bet dana is such a nice guy. The way he talks about francis just says good guy to me
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dana White is never wrong, crazy how that works
This shit is even funnier than jon jones saying colby Covington is a bad person.
Yes Francis is playing 4D chess with all of us. He even fakes English not being his second language. I feel like a fool.
This coming from a guy who had fall outs with other UFC champions
So Francis shouldn't be about the money? This is a JOB for these fighters. Being a champ provides you with leverage. Francis wanted more, the ufc said no so, he walked away and got opportunities elsewhere. Sounds like a good business man and one hell of a fighter.
Dana salty AF lol.
Dana - "PFL signed a shtty contract with Francis"..... So Dana is admitting that Francis is getting paid insane money outside the UFC 🤣
I have NO IDEA if Dana is lying his ass off but it sure is entertaining when he beefs with his competitors 😂😂😂
"When Francis Ngannou hits you, its the equivalent of a Ford escort hitting you as fast as it can" lol
and Jon Jones is a GREAT guy right?
Kinda ironic
Dana has never said that at all
That deep breathing nervous response says everything.
Francis left a few gyms, that speaks volumes
So did Khamzat, your logic is 💩
Lmao you’re a goofy 🤣🤣
Dana White is in the comments 😂
@@Insain55 Francis was kicked out 🤔
What 🤣🤣
It's crazy to hear Dana say that francis didn't want to fight jones. Francis went to a different sport to take on arguably one of the most dominant boxers in history and effectively won that match and knocked Fury on his ass. Ngganou isn't afraid of Jones in MMA or any other capacity. This is the same guy that says jones shoukd be P4P #1 when he's barely fought in the last 5 years
Dana salty hahahaha
I love in the comments everyone assumes Francis is what he shows you. He’s a giant who talks real soft. The man could have been marketed better than any other fighter. Dana loves that shit so for Dana to give that up he must have a different experience then we do. Dana is t the first to say bad things about Francis. You guys forget about the coach that basically made Francis when he was a homeless immigrant. Ask that guy about Francis
Fernand Lopez is a well known asshole himself. Of course he's gonna trash Francis too after he walked away. Look at Ciryl Gane. Failed at getting the undisputed title twice because he just has zero improvement under Lopez. Francis peeped this after the first Stipe fight and walked away. He became the undisputed world champion afterwards.
People like you need to do some serious introspection. You can't tell me someone who glazes Jon Jones on a daily basis is a good judge of character lmao. Ask Erick Nicksick, Doowey Cooper, Israel Adesanya, Kamaru Usman about the real Francis
It’s less I think Francis is this saint. More like Dana a money grubbing scumbag. Even if you believe his words man even contradicts himself. “He took contract to give him more money” few sentences later “He would of made more money he just scared”
Ok mr boxercise
Hi. I’m Francis Ngannou. I live rent free in Dana’s head.
Ngannou should take the high road and stop answering questions about Dana White. We know Dana is as petty as they come. In the end, Ngannou won
He’s a bad guy? Why? Because he knew his worth as a boxer and a fighter and you didn’t? Be humble and accept he made the right choice and he was bad for business demonstrating his true worth without you.
*Salty* 🧂 😅
A dude who hits his wife calling somebody else a bad dude is wild. Jon jones don’t get this energy from Dana and jones is my favorite fighter
But you are Dana, right????
Have a look in the mirror, Dana.
The amount of words Dana will have to eat when espn says to him make Francis vs Jones.
Francis screwed up big time he would have been a way bigger star in the ufc
He is no longer in the ufc but is still talking about him 😂
Way more people know who he is after fighting Tyson Fury
@@dws0828 More people have heard his name after that fight, but I still think he would have been a bigger star in the UFC almost definitely.
Francis made more in 1 boxing match than his entire UFC career.
He was already the biggest star in UFC and Jones was hiding. Francis left with nothing much to do at UFC. He beat all the best HWs except Aspinall by 2yrs back.
As Africans, we’ve endured life the hard way. You can’t manipulate, intimidate, or dominate someone who has spent their entire life honing survival skills just to secure a meal while constantly facing violence from a young age. In a continent where human rights often feel nonexistent, this hardship has shaped some of us into individuals who are stronger and virtually invincible.
1:02 Dana is hilarious 😂
Jon jones the woman beater is a god and Francis is bad, got it.
Dana drops more money on a hand of cards, than a fighter's entire salary.
Francis pointing his finger at Dana; he owes his old gym in France money 🤦♂️
