“Arjan’s manager was not the most … how can I be very polite about this … I would say that the manager was combative and arrogant,” - Chatri Sityodtong (ONE Championship CEO)

Francis Ngannou & Arjan Bhullar have the same manager. Maybe Dana was right and Frank should hire someone other than a reality television "star" as a manager.

 

[Pechan]

If Francis win and his manager lets him get stripped of his title then he is indeed a moron.

 

[DaRivv20]

How rude if Chatri to say such things.

 

[koquerelle]

But I was told only Dana did this type of things.

 

[JustOnce]

Damn, Bhullar is a prelim level fighter, crazy they are doing this.

 

[Matthew Fedler]

If Francis win and his manager lets him get stripped of his title then he is indeed a moron.

If Francis wins this weekend and somehow gets out of his UFC contract then his manager would be a miracle worker, actually. He could retire off a loss to Tyson Fury in boxing.

 

[greenhawk]

Props to the manager. Not allowing his clients to get fleeced by these mega promotions.

 

[Hellowhosthat]

Big Frank and Arjan to start their own promotion, looking forward to itn

Fury v Ngannou will never happen. Francis and his manager are foolish to think so regardless of being signed anywhere.

Wrong Fury wants it

Wrong Fury wants it

Fury also wants Joshua. That fight is proving to be impossible to make and they're both in the same sport.

Will never happen.

Ever watch Entourage? The manager was based on Ari from WME. That's how managers are in other industries. That's how it is with other major industries. It's just like lawyers, they are aggressive.

Yeah, a guy with no boxing experience losing to the best heavyweight boxer in the world would totally ruin his name

It can and will happen. You must not be keeping up, Top Rank and Fury are all interested in it. If you think Ngannou won't be able to sign to a major boxing promotion if he becomes a free agent, then you don't understand the fight game much.

Josh does not want to face fury without his belt back. Said it on some interview just google it.

Not if it's to go to boxing. Only if MMA was his only option then yes it would be a dumb move. But that's not the case and the whole contract situation is partly because of Ngannou not being allowed to box. Plus the pay issues. So it's just Ngannou's manager fighting for better pay and boxing fights in his contract. Something he's supposed to be doing as a manager. His client's needs are the priority.
