MMA fighter Alexander Shlemenko, in a conversation with SE, reacted to the absence of former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov in the top three greatest fighters in the history of the league, according to the head of the absolute fighting championship, Dana White.
Why didn’t Khabib make the list? It is difficult to answer, because the organization itself has the right to decide who to include and who not. You need to look at the criteria by which the choice of these fighters was made. If you look, the fighters who made it to the list had more fights. For example, Jon Jones was the youngest champion. Each of them has some peculiarity. I don’t think Khabib will be particularly upset that he was not included in the list, ”Shlemenko told SE.
Khabib Nurmagomedov started competing in the UFC in 2012. The Russian fighter ended his sports career after defeating the American Dustin Gaethje in the UFC 254 tournament. At that time, Nurmagomedov’s performance statistics were 29-0.
