It's so strange how we can simply go back and look at articles from 2022 and see Francis, his team, the UFC, and everybody targeting the exact March 2023 card that Jon fought on.
Francis Ngannou coach wants Jon Jones fight in March 2023, top UFC exec on board with it
Francis Ngannou’s head coach, Erik Nicksick, reveals a top UFC executive is on board with "The Predator" making his return to action against Jon Jones in early 2023.www.mmamania.com
It's almost like that card was the plan all along and Jon got the deal he wanted but Francis didn't.
That's as clear as it gets. Francis had his chance when the fight was on the table and didn't take it. Can't blame Jon on this one.
