Alex Pereira could become the UFC pound-for-pound best fighter at UFC 313

But if the Brazilian wins at UFC 313, then Dana White believes it's possible he overtakes Makhachev in the pound-for-pound rankings.
"He’s one of the biggest stars in the sport right now, if not the biggest star in the sport," White said about Pereira on First Take. "What makes this weekend great is Ankalaev is a very serious threat to him.
"This is probably the toughest fight he’s ever had. His team always talks about his takedown defense and that the fans don’t really know how good it is. We’re going to find out how good it is this weekend.
"This is a tough fight for Alex. Alex comes out of this the way he’s come out of every other fight, he might be the pound-for-pound best fighter in the world."
