in MMA, the best don't fight the best. the best get strong armed into shitty contract situations, put on the shelf, and treated like they never wanted any part of it. who gives a fuck if frances didn't fight tear my chee chee off jon jones? i don't care anymore. your time is so damn short in this "sport" that if you don't make your money, secure your future, you are absolutely doomed in the real world. the best don't get to fight the best. and that is the fault of one man. Randy Couture, Fedor Emelianenko, and now Francis Ngannou joins the ranks of fighters who were robbed of the most important match ups of our time. And look what happened? Absolutely not a damn thing. Just myself and a few others bitching, complaining, reminding. Francis doesn't fight Jon Jones. So what. Jon Jones is going to fight Stipe and retire anyways. It would have proved/solved not a damn thing as Francis would have most likely viciously, brutally KO'd Jon Jones. haha. THe best don't get to fight the best, and Francis has secured his future and some. THat is more important IMO. It's a shame, but one that is on Dana White. Just as before. As it is now.
