Dana White, the head of UFC, shared his opinion on the greatest boxers of all time, highlighting a quartet that he believes deserves attention.
“I assess the situation from a different perspective, taking into account the business aspect as well. My favorite is Muhammad Ali, although opinions may vary. In second place is Sugar Ray Robinson, third is Floyd Mayweather, and rounding out the list is Mike Tyson,” White stated on The Rushmore Podcast.
Don't forget that White also heads the promotional company Zuffa Boxing.
Moreover, he is actively preparing for the upcoming tournament, which will take place at the White House on June 14.
In this context, White did not rule out the possibility of Conor McGregor, the former champion in two weight classes, participating in this event.
However, he clarified that the fight between McGregor and American Michael Chandler is not scheduled for the tournament at the White House.
“The McGregor vs. Chandler fight is not part of our plans for this UFC tournament at the White House. However, Conor is definitely being considered for participation in this event. We have a good relationship, and we communicate often,” White added at the press conference.
