Dana White, the president of the UFC, has shifted his perspective on the greatest MMA fighter of all time, now suggesting that Alex Pereira could surpass Jon Jones if he wins against Ciryl Gane at UFC Freedom 250 on June 14. White stated that if Pereira secures a victory, he would become a three-division champion, a feat no fighter has accomplished in UFC history, thus overtaking Jones' legacy. Jones, who previously held the light heavyweight and heavyweight titles, holds the record for the most wins in UFC title fights with 16. Pereira, however, has expressed that he is not focused on the GOAT status, indicating he has more to prove in his career. The fight is significant not only for Pereira's potential to make history but also for the opportunity to face heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall in a unification bout, as Aspinall is currently recovering from eye surgeries. This matchup positions Pereira as a major star in the UFC, and a win could solidify his place in the sport's history.
