Dana White has insisted he did not snub Francis Ngannou and there was no personal agenda at UFC 270.
The UFC president was mysteriously absent when the time came to wrap the belt around the champion's waist after he beat Ciryl Gane and was also a no-show for the post-fight press conference.
Ngannou feels disrespected by the UFC and the very public contract row was a central narrative for Saturday's fight.
Dana White was not on hand to strap the UFC belt around Francis Ngannou's waist
His deal has automatically extended to the end of 2022 due to the fact that he won the fight but he may not compete until 2023 anyway after choosing to undergo surgery on a torn MCL in his knee.
