In a current interview, Islam Makhachev slammed the UFC for ranking Jon Jones as the No.1 pound-for-pound fighter after his return triumph against Cyrill Gane at UFC 285. Makhachev, who beat Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 284, thinks Jones does not should have the leading area as he beat a non-champion. Makhachev likewise revealed his desire to be acknowledged as the very best fighter worldwide. Currently without a next challenger, he might deal with the winner of the upcoming UFC 291 light-weight fight in between Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje, depending upon the result of the UFC 289 fight in between Charles Oliveira and Beneil Dariush, according to Javier Mendez, Makhachev’s coach.
