Makhachev explains why Volkanovski can't be considered the greatest fighter
The Aussie is now at the top of the overall promotion rankings.
In Perth, Australia, there was a big press conference dedicated to the UFC 284 tournament on February 11.
The main character at the event was, of course, the participants in the most important fight, Islam Makhachev and Alex Volkanovski.
At one point the Russian was reminded that his opponent was leading the world's strongest fighters rating.
At the same time, Islam was asked whether Volkanovski could be considered the strongest fighter of all time in case of his success in the upcoming fight.
That's impossible. We're fighting at my weight. It's not his weight, so he can't beat me. I'll beat him," replied the Russian athlete.
