UFC CEO, Dana White has once more shut down the idea of a potential future fight between heavyweight champion, Jon Jones, and former divisional gold holder, Francis Ngannou – especially in any potential crossover bout with another promotion.
White, the long-time head-honcho of the UFC, spoke with media assembled following UFC 295 last night in Madison Square Garden, where he was approached about a potential crossover fight in the future between Ngannou, and Jones, with fans and pundits alike still clamouring for a future pairing of the heavyweight phenoms.

However, despite Ngannou’s success en route to an eventual controversial split decision loss to WBC heavyweight champion, Tyson Fury last month in a professional boxing debut, which White heralded – the UFC leader insists he would have no interest cross-promoting to book a fight between the Cameroonian and Jones.
