UFC President Dana White, in an interview with the Hot Boxin' YouTube channel, listed the most outstanding fighters in the history of the promotion. Curiously, the former champion of the lightweight division Khabib Nurmagomedov there was no place in this list.
“It’s very difficult to do this because in the 23 years that I spent in the UFC, there were a lot of great fighters. But you need to start with Jon Jones. The list should include Ronda Rousey, Amanda Nunes, the greatest female fighter in history.
There must be Kamaru Usman, Chuck Liddell, Royce Gracie. If you look at different generations, you will see that they took the sport to a new level. Matt Hughes should be on the list. There are so many people it's hard to choose," White said.
