LAS VEGAS – Francis Ngannou has no issue seeing the UFC heavyweight title he never lost up for grabs when Jon Jones makes his heavyweight debut, but is curious about which version of the former light heavyweight king will show up. Although Ngannou is no longer in the UFC after failed negotiations with the promotion, he still has a high interest in who will claim the vacant heavyweight title in the main event of UFC 285 when Jones (26-1 MMA, 20-1 UFC) takes on former interim champion Ciryl Gane . When Ngannou stood up for what he wanted in a new contract, Jones initially supported the former champion for standing up for sticking to his guns as he walked away from the promotion while never losing the title in the octagon. However, Jones switched up his tone recently by stating, “Francis didn’t believe in himself.” Despite the change from Jones, Ngannou doesn’t want to be a part of any potential drama, and would rather the two remain on good terms considering they could still have a massive showdown in the future. “Personally, I don’t have any problem with Jon Jones,” Ngannou told MMA Junkie . “I think we all know that Jon Jones has multiple personalities, and sometimes it’s even hard for him to figure out who he really is – and I don’t have nothing to do with that.
