Former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou published a post on social media accusing the promotion's management of lying.
On August 13, the fight between Cameroonian Tafon Nchukwi and American AJ Dobson took place at UFC on ESPN 51. During Nchukwi's introduction into the octagon, he was called "the only Cameroonian fighter in UFC history."

Thierry Sokoudjou was the first Cameroonian in the UFC. I was second. Don't let them lie and erase history.
Recall, on October 29 in Riyadh (Saudi Arabia) Francis Ngannou will fight Tyson Fury.
Ngannou, 36, defeated Ciryl Gane by unanimous decision at UFC 270 in January 2022. He has 17 wins and three losses under his belt in mixed martial arts.
Fury, 34, won by technical knockout in the tenth round over compatriot Derek Chisora in December 2022 . He has 33 wins (24 by knockout), one draw and no defeats.
