UFC record breaker has one career loss and Dana White wanted to remove it from his CV.
Dana White is losing faith in his ongoing attempts to remove the lone defeat from the record of UFC 's heavyweight champion, who defended the title at UFC 309. The knockout win in the main event at Madison Square Garden broke the record for the most successful title defences of any UFC fighter but a disqualification in Las Vegas in 2009 takes the shine off an otherwise perfect record in the octagon.
Dana White is often outspoken about his admiration for Jon Jones, labelling him as the greatest of all time and number one current pound for pound fighter. The fighter, who was reportedly contemplating retirement before stopping Miocic and looking towards a future fight either on Earth or on Mars,"Today, seeing how far I’ve gone undefeated I do know that it would have helped me market myself for my after-MMA life,” he said before his title defence in New York City.
His defeat of Miocic was the twelfth successful title defence of his career, a UFC record, and was the 28th win of his controversial but now legendary career.
