White stated during the event's post-fight press scrum, "He recently just beat the No. 1 heavyweight in the world. Hope you guys read that stat. You know what is f*cking great about technology?

Most of the media's objection to Jones' being ranked atop the pound-for-pound list boils down to his inactivity. As a result, Alex Pereira and Islam Makhachev have both been ranked ahead of the former light heavyweight champ.
A planned fight with Stipe Miocic last year was called off due to injury, and is expected to happen next month. As for Gane, it was the French star's second loss for the undisputed UFC heavyweight crown, after a previous loss to Francis Ngannou.
