Francis Ngannou has continued to take aim at Dana White.
For months, Ngannou and White haven’t seen eye-to-eye as the former UFC heavyweight champion fought out his contract against Ciryl Gane in January 2022. He then was in contract negotiations but he and the UFC did not see eye-to-eye and eventually, the UFC decided to let Ngannou go to free agency where he signed with PFL.
Ever since he signed with PFL, both Ngannou and White have taken shots at one another as Ngannou tried to fact-check White after he claimed Ngannou was scared to fight.
“1. I completed my contract, was a free agent, and chose to walk away. you didn’t release me. 2. I hate taking risks? that’s why I defended my title to fulfill my contract with no acl or mcl? 3. The reason I fought three times in three years is because you wanted to control my deal and signs a new one. And freeze me out. “I owe these guys three fights a year.” Isn’t that what you say? What happened? I always asked for & never said no to any fight in the 3 years I’m finally getting paid and respected, and have a deal that’s fair and equal for all parties. Why are you so against me being free and happy?,” Ngannou wrote on Twitter.
What is your problem with me?
1. I completed my contract, was a free agent, and chose to walk away. you didn’t release me
2. I hate taking risks? that’s why I defended my title to fulfill my contract with no acl or mcl?

Ngannou teaches class at Harvard Business School
Now, after Francis Ngannou and Dana White have taken aim at one another, the former heavyweight champ took to trolling even more. Ngannou was at Harvard Business School when he posted photos of him teaching a class on how to get out of a contract.
Immediately, many fans laughed at Francis Ngannou’s class and thought it was a good joke. As of right now, Dana White has to respond to that post, and whether or not he will is uncertain.
As for Ngannou’s fighting career, he is expected to make his PFL debut in 2024 but is looking to make his boxing debut this year.
