Former Bellator champion, Russian fighter Andrei Koreshkov says what the Russian should do Islam Makhachev beat the American Jon Jones in the UFC ranking regardless of the weight categories (P4P).
On Saturday, October 21, Makhachev knocked out Australian Alexander Volkanovski in the first round at UFC 294 in Abu Dhabi and defended the UFC lightweight championship belt.
— This time, I should already surpass (Volkanovski in the ranking). But this is a question that concerns rating compilers. Will this victory of Islam be considered a victory in its own right? Everyone knows that Volkanovski left at short notice. I did what I could.
Jon Jones has actually only lost one fight – to Matt Hamill, and that was by disqualification after illegal elbows. He hasn’t lost to anyone in the cage. He was the dominant light heavyweight champion for a long time. He has 11 successful title defenses. Most of his fights were championship fights. To get around him, Makhachev needs to make the same number of defenses at lightweight and also take the welterweight belt, Metaratings.ru quotes Koreshkov.
Makhachev, 31, won the 25th victory of his career with just one defeat.
