UFC CEO Dana White took a slightly different approach when revealing his UFC Mount Rushmore.
Ahead of Saturday’s UFC 306 (pay-per-view, ESPNews, ESPN+) at Sphere in Las Vegas, White was asked to list his MMA Mount Rushmore. There were some obvious choices, but White put emphasis on impact in his list.
“You’ve got to go with Jon Jones. You have to go with Ronda Rousey – women would not be fighting if it wasn’t for her,” White told ESPN’s “First Take” (h/t Championship Rounds). “You would have to put GSP (Georges St-Pierre) in there and absolutely, positively Conor McGregor. He elevated and changed the game globally.”
