How is it honorable to vacate the belt and run from your opponents who deserve an opportunity to beat you?

Francis and honor hell no. He's greedy and selfish.

Greedy: He turned down a 3 fight deal for 24 million. He would have been the highest paid heavyweight ever.
Selfish: He vacated the belt to pursue his own interest in boxing.

Honor would be fighting Jon Jones, Stipe Miocic, and Sergey Spivak. Then going to boxing. BTW he could have fought all 3 in 18 months and made 24 million.


Jon Jones is coming to town....OOHHH shit let me complain and vacate this belt. that's not honor dude.

I use to think this rhetoric was just BS, but I’ve seen the numbers projected for a Fury/Ngannou fight. Bigger than May/Mac, he’s gotta try and secure that bag. Never have to fight again.

He could make 20m even against a top 5-8 marketed well

It’s easier to paint the narrative that Francis ran away.
But it’s clear Jones used his star power cause he was scared of the power.
Similar to how Connor is ducking Gaethje and chose Chandler.
