Why should I be upset? Everything has worked out very well for me, so I’m good.” As long as I don’t personally hurt you, I’m just doing what is good for me.

I’m obligated to do what is good for me, and I’m sorry if what is good for me is bad for somebody. We should be able to go without bad blood. I had a contract, I fulfilled the contract, we couldn’t agree on another one. “I think the person to answer that question best is Dana White,” Ngannou said when asked why the UFC is open to Diaz’s return. Why the two fighters have drawn such a different reaction from White, Ngannou doesn’t know. After successfully defending his heavyweight title against Gane at UFC 270, Ngannou fulfilled the fight obligations of his contract with the promotion and could not come to terms to re-sign, which led to a public falling out, with White saying that Ngannou will “never be in the UFC again.” That’s a major departure from the UFC’s split with superstar Nate Diaz last year, wherein Diaz similarly fought out his contract and exited the promotion for greener pastures, but has been welcomed back with open arms to other UFC events, with White even telling Diaz “This is always your f****** house.” Ngannou’s split from the UFC was contentious verging on acrimonious at times.

I don’t have a promoter anymore.’ I said this to him, ‘I don’t feel like I belong.’ ‘What do you mean? Have you ever wanted to come to an event and you don’t get tickets? Or have you ever wanted to go to the P.I. “I was like, ‘I feel like I’ve been in a promotion lately without a promoter. I think you have to change your team,’ or something. I’m in a fight in the promotion and I don’t know exactly how I got into a fight with the promotion.’ And he was like, ‘Yes, we want you here. I appreciate all the help, but at this point I feel like I don’t belong anymore. I went to him, we spoke, I said, ‘I appreciate everything that you’ve done for me. “Before my last fight, when I fought Ciryl Gane, I met with Dana in a restaurant. “I didn’t like the way that things played out,” Ngannou said Tuesday on The MMA Hour when asked if the door for a return was closed.
