Dana White thinks Alex Pereira “might be the pound-for-pound best fighter in the world” with the right type of win over Magomed Ankalaev.

Alex Pereira barely moves, for nearly a minute, his sparring partner draped across both legs in a controlling position. Pereira locks around the guy's arms and just stays there, to the point that his stillness becomes worrisome.

Dana White says if Alex Pereira does to Magomed Ankalaev what he’s done to almost every single opponent he’s faced since moving to light heavyweight, there’s a good argument he should be considered the best pound-for-pound fighter in the sport.
