Dana White\u2019s Jon Jones GOAT argument and Michael Jordan
\ncomparison in MMA history<\/h2>\n

White recently addressed the GOAT debate, upholding his earlier
\nstance. He once again called Jones the greatest in the sport\u2019s
\nhistory.<\/p>\n

\u201cMe and Jon have our… there\u2019s the business side and then there\u2019s
\nthe personal side,\u201d White said. \u201cBut even on the business side, I
\nalways respect Jon Jones. Jon Jones knows who he is and Jon Jones
\nknows what he does, and there\u2019s no delusion there. I\u2019ve said it and
\nI\u2019ll say it again: He\u2019s the greatest of all time.\u201d<\/p>\n

White acknowledged how Jones continued to win big despite issues
\noutside the Octagon frequently disrupting his career.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of these fights that he went out and won, he wasn\u2019t being
\nvery good to himself leading up to those fights,\u201d White added.<\/p>\n

He then likened Jones to NBA legend Michael Jordan, citing both
\nathletes’ ability to perform at the highest level despite personal
\nissues away from competition.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou hear these stories about Michael Jordan now,\u201d White said. \u201cThe
\nstuff that this guy was doing and then coming out and beating the
\nsh*t out of world-class guys who trained hard to try to beat
\nhim.\u201d<\/p>\n
