Responsible for AMC Fight Nights Kamil Hajiyev in an interview with , he expressed his opinion on the list of the five best fighters in the history of the UFC, compiled by the president of the organization Dana White .
White’s roster includes Jon Jones (26-1), Ronda Rousey (12-2), Conor McGregor (22-6), Georges St-Pierre (26-2) and Anderson Silva (34-11). Khabib Nurmagomedov did not enter the top 5. The Russian fighter is the only UFC champion who has not suffered any losses in his career.
– White made an important reservation that many people could be included in this note. I think Khabib could compete with Jon Jones on this list. But it’s likely that Dana supports Jon Jones’ decision to continue and doesn’t support Khabib’s decision to end.
Why is Jones losing? Because of failed doping tests?
“I think there are several factors. Even if we are not talking about Khabib. There are a lot of negative actions: taken with cocaine, drunk driving – you have to perceive the person as a complex And he didn’t set the best example. Also, at the time, it was clear that Jon Jones didn’t have the best level of opposition. The fights with Cormier are cool, but there were fights. where it was 100% obvious that he would win. And he’s still an active fighter, he can still lose. And again, if he does well at heavyweight, they can still change,” Gadzhiev said. at MatchTV.
Nurmagomedov announced his retirement from the sport in the fall of 2020.
Of these five fighters, Conor McGregor and Georges St-Pierre became champions in two weight classes.
