    White claimed the contract offered would have made Ngannou the “highest-paid heavyweight” in the history of UFC.
    But the two parties have failed to strike a deal after long-running talks, leaving Ngannou as a free agent and the heavyweight belt has been vacated.
    A crossover to boxing had been teased earlier last year when Ngannou appeared in the ring following Fury’s WBC title win over Dillian Whyte.
    Ngannou responded to a Fury social media callout last year: “I’m coming for all the smoke 💨💨💨. 2023.”

    And now that Ngannou is a free agent, he can take on Fury “for all the smoke”.
    Team-mate Strickland is sad to see Ngannou leave the UFC, but says the heavyweight should enjoy “go f*** yourself money” by fighting Fury.
    Strickland told reporters following his win over Nassourdine Imavov at UFC Fight Night 217 on Saturday: “I think it’s a damn shame to see Francis go.
    “He’s iconic in the UFC. He’s probably one of the greatest heavyweights we’ve ever had.

    “It sucks he parted ways, but I hope that him and Tyson Fury fight for a lot of f*cking money. That’s a fight we deserve.
    “Again, it sucks he left. I’d love to see him fight in the UFC.
    “If the ‘Gypsy King’ sacks up and takes that fight against Francis, I mean, that’s ‘go f*ck yourself’ money.
    “That’s ‘I can go pee in a golden toilet seat. I can do whatever the f*** I want.’
    “It sucks he leaves, but if he can get that big money with Tyson, hat’s off to you Francis. Enjoy your ‘go f*** yourself money.’” More

    The fight was then waved off 42 seconds into the seventh round.
    The ringside doctor deemed Vianello unable to continue, giving American boxer Rice the win via TKO.
    It was the first time he had lost in 12 bouts, with 10 wins and a draw to his name prior to Saturday’s clash in New York.

    Joe Fournier
    Fournier, 39, is a millionaire nightclub tycoon-turned unbeaten 9-0 boxer who has tirelessly called out KSI, 29.
