Russian MMA analyst responded to Vlad Matveev's top 10 greatest UFC fighters list, expressing surprise that Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor were excluded. He argues that greatness should include not only titles and defenses but also a fighter's overall impact on the sport, including popularization, peak performance, fight dominance, commercial value, and records. Based on these expanded criteria, his personal top 10 includes Jon Jones at number one, GSP second, Khabib third, and McGregor fourth. He emphasizes that Khabib and McGregor vastly expanded MMA's global reach in the Arab world and worldwide respectively, inspiring countless followers to enter the sport.
