no, I would rather see Frank go crawl up Oprah Winfrey's ass and fight for air.you wouldn't be excited for Aspinall vs Ngannou?
or Jones vs Ngannou?
or Pereira vs Nganou?

Ares Macdonald, Corey Anderson, Ryan Bader, Phil Davis all left in their primes with prominent standings in the rankings. These were not middle of the pack journeyman or old stars.UFC fighters cannot get into free agency in their prime.
Ngannou did it by sacrificing millions in purses for 3 or 4 years, and by going against UFC's pressure. And the UFC has since changed the sunset clause that allowed him to walk away free.
This was s a one off, the only UFC fighters who can reach free agency are middle of the pack journeymen on a losing streak or old stars with overpaying contracts (like JDS, Overeem).
Sure but old stuff, and Corey was notoriously unpopular.Ares Macdonald, Corey Anderson, Ryan Bader, Phil Davis all left in their primes with prominent standings in the rankings. These were not middle of the pack journeyman or old stars.
The issue with PFL is not the money, it's the lack of fight offer. They have no one outside Nemkov who does not look particularly eager to fight Ngannou.I think Ngannou likes money and it motivates him the most. PFL probably isn't offering him much. Also after 0-2 in boxing, probably can't get that Wilder fight. UFC is only place for big fights for him now with Tom and Jones.
It's all up to what his PFL contract says. UFC would sign him for a worse offer than last time and lock him down for good. Still would feed UFC roster and bring the "lineal" title back.
You’re a cheeky bozo. Your average casual fan can only name a single fighter from PFL but you blame the only popular name for destroying a company with not a shred of evidence to back and literally use your booty pinch ideology as why you don’t want to see him in the UFC. Sounding doofy and shitWhy? It’s not like fans care about Ngannou, he basically killed the PFL lol. No one really cares if he comes back.
I mean you are right, but it's also hand in hand. They know what battle of the giants did PPV wise, paid Renan 2M lol and Ngannou more. Maybe they do have deep pockets of investors, but they can't offer Ngannou 3x a year without blowing themselves up financially. Maybe you're right if they had Jones and Tom as free agents to use.The issue with PFL is not the money, it's the lack of fight offer.

It does go hand in hand. And they have investors with unlimited money but paying close to 10M in purses is a thing, doing it to make Ngannou against a Tim Johsnon or Oleg Popov...no one in their right mind would do that.I mean you are right, but it's also hand in hand.
