White goes after Ngannou

“I lost? I didn’t lose anything. I was done with Francis after the – actually, he owes me money because we had to watch that fight with him and The Black Beast [Derrick Lewis]. He should actually pay me back for that fight. Trust me, I don’t think about Francis that much. You guys asked me the question about PFL and I responded.

“The only ones who are probably praying for his demise are the PFL, because they signed a s****y contract with a guy that doesn’t deliver any numbers in ticket sales or pay-per-views. They gotta keep paying this guy for however long, and good for him. Not good for them.”

“He can play those games all he wants, he would’ve made more money here. Some day I’ll tell you the story – I was all about Francis in the beginning, and then I found out who Francis was. I told the two guys who asked me not to cut Francis, when someone shows you who they are, believe them. Believe me, I have no sleepless nights over Francis leaving.”
