No he wont, his biggest fight would be Fury. Hed receive 15-20% of the purse which is 5 mill at the least. After Fury knocks his block off hes headed to Bellator.

Hes been mismanaged, plain and simple

Really? Chisora, who has no PPV draw, made 4.5 mil lol. Whyte got 7.4. Wilder made 28. I would reckon it would be in the neighborhood of at least 10mil, that PPV would be dynamite. He’s made about 2.7 mil base salary in the UFC, made only 600,000k in his fight against Gane.

Even if Fury destroys him, he will most likely make more in that one fight than any contract the UFC has ever offered (McGreggor 5mil per). Doesn’t need to go to Bellator, he can just retire or fight every few years after the Fury paycheck

He's said they've tried to work on a deal with Francis for almost 2 years, but they couldn't make it work.

Says they offered Ngannou a deal which would have made him the highest paid HW in UFC history.

I Guess it was like 600k+600k then maybe it he last fight and defending his title fight for the 5 the time maybe it was 4 million dollars.

My point is , Francis had to fight a lot to earn the same Money as Conor.

Franny makes between 4-7 mill fighting Jones and has a better chance of winning. It would probably do big ppv numbers as well.

Frannys management are a pack of idiots
 
I think he's making a bad decision, I don't know if he's going to get that big money fight against Fury and I think he's going to embarrass himself if he does. That said, it's his career and I'm glad they're giving him that choice.

Said company would have been getting a considerable slice of the pie.

Not really worth it though.

With Conor it was the second biggest fight of all time over 4m PPV buys.

Francis might do a few 100k and will get starched early against Fury or Deontay if they were even interested which I'm not sure they are and I don't think anyone believes Francis has much of a chance.

honestly it probably will. Ufc can move on. What’s Francis gonna do now? Box. Ok but he’d get flatlined by most top guys. No other mma org is gonna pay him what ufc was

Francis can get sponsors.
 
Guy at the presser asked dana if francis wanting to box had anything to do with the release dana dodged the question and said nobody will get boxing in their contract.. never even said if that was a huge issue but im guessing big yes
 
I think Jones tries to clinch along the fence and work his clinch game and grappling from there. I anticipate Jones tried to grapple quickly and look for a submission, Grappling and submission defense would be Gane’s biggest weaknesses he could exploit imo.

Where it gets interesting is if Jones can’t control Gane and it turns into a striking contest.

What if Gane muscles Jones to the ground and controls him early in the fight?

yeah french immigrants from africa are basically the ruling class... -_-

I meant mayweather-mcgregor style

What? I was not talking about ruling class. I was just talking about the large group of "gypsies" and how that's the worst treated group in Europe. Talk about them, even on leftist websites like Reddit, and Euros will turn into Aldofies.
 
I’m so glad he’s gone. I’m not a ufc shill, I’m very critical of them especially with all this ESPN shit. Smell ya later.

Why would a company agree to let him go do a sport that directly competes with what he's doing, that will interfere with his ability to take fights and possibly lead to him getting injured? Moving on was the best thing for both parties in this situation. Say they let him box. He gets a taste of that money and he'd have never set foot in the octagon again

UFC is not about who is the best, but about who can make the most profit. Francis is the champ, but asked too much. So he is out and Gane (who lost to him) is in, because he doesn't ask for as much. UFC is who wins the title while being paid in the range the UFC is willing to pay.

Yes and I was understanding and ignoring your random gypsy thing because my original post was about a more universal type of inter-fighter contention that has been proven to sell ala Mayweather McGregor.
But nice to see you ranting about "leftist reddit" to confirm you're just not very bright and right wing lol.

Anyways.... back to the actual topic; it could be a sellable fight if both parties come to terms even if its almost assuredly an uglier version of Wilder-Fury.
