"I'm like this guy got this, this guy got that and this is why. The conversation's over, and I'm starting to leave, and he grabs me by my shirt and pushes me back in my office and I said 'dude, get your f*cking hands off me.' I could see in this guy's face and in his eyes and the way he's acting who this guy really f*cking is."
"And when Hunter started to walk away, Francis grabbed him by the f*cking back of his collar and f*cking pulled him back and said 'we're not done talking yet.' This guy's not a good f*cking guy. He's a bad guy."
Francis Ngannou allegedly engaged in physical confrontations with UFC executives during disputes over a denied $50,000 post-fight bonus. The incidents reportedly took place at the UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas, with Ngannou grabbing Dana White by the shirt and pulling Hunter Campbell back by his collar while demanding answers. Ngannou left the UFC in 2023 after failing to reach a new contract and later signed with the PFL, where he has fought once. He also pursued high-profile boxing matches against Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua after the split. The allegations revive scrutiny over fighter compensation, contract negotiations, and conduct within major MMA promotions.
