"Makhachev is one of the greatest fighters in the history of MMA in his weight class. But while there is Jon Jones, who hasn't lost a fight, there is only one best in P4P. Jones has beaten everyone in the higher weight classes.
If you lock two people in a room, who comes out of there alive? John, of course. Moreover, he had a 3 year hiatus, but he came back to win again. He is absolutely the best MMA fighter in history," White said at the press conference after the UFC 302 tournament.
Recall that today Makhachev held the third defense of the title, "choked" in the fifth round of Dustin Puryear.
