"It's not that I don't like the idea. This guy competed at middleweight and then moved up to welterweight. He had a couple fights there and defended his title, but that doesn't mean this guy was in the division for two years and cleaned everybody out there. When you see me standing in the middle of these guys, you see these guys are just freaking monsters. They're big guys. Imagine if they were both competing at middleweight. That's crazy. But they look good at welterweight. But moving up to heavyweight is a whole other level. As big as Jon Jones is, as good as he is, you know, when Jon Jones was moving up to heavyweight, we thought, 'This is going to be interesting.' But it wasn't," MMA Junkie quoted White as saying.
