Overview
- On Flagrant, White said Ngannou grabbed his shirt and pushed him back into his office during a dispute over a $50,000 post-fight bonus.
- White added that Ngannou later seized UFC chief business officer Hunter Campbell by the collar when Campbell tried to walk away.
- In the interview, White labeled Ngannou “a bad guy” and rejected the notion of any language barrier in their dealings.
- Former UFC PR lead Ant Evans posted that he believes White’s account and described Ngannou as intimidating staff during past visits.
- Ngannou has not publicly responded to the claims; he left the UFC in 2023, signed with PFL, and pursued marquee boxing bouts as media now cast a UFC return as unlikely.
