When fans debate about LeBron James and Michael Jordan, the talk is usually limited to their basketball abilities.

But the occasional hypothetical comparison between the two legends related to a different sport never goes out of style. UFC president Dana White recently picked Jordan over James if there was ever a slap fight between them. No, we are not kidding.

“Michael Jordan [would win],” White said in an interview with Robbie Fox of Barstool Sports. “Listen, I respect LeBron and what he has done and who he is as an athlete. Never in trouble. Always there for the games. Makes a big difference when he’s on a team. You feel the difference when he’s on a team. But Jordan is my all-time. And I’m a Celtics guy, but Jordan is a f*****g killer. Jordan is a killer.”

White believes Michael Jordan’s killer mentality gives him an advantage over LeBron James. After all, if we compare the sheer physical abilities, James should win the slap flight competition over MJ.

James stands at 6’9″ and weighs 250 pounds. On the other hand, MJ is 6’6″ and weighs 198 pounds. Despite the obvious difference in their physicalities, White thinks Jordan would defeat LeBron.


Where Will LeBron James Play This Summer?

LeBron James’ future in the NBA has been the primary point of discussion for the media and fans since the Los Angeles Lakers were swept in the Western Conference Finals.

Initially, it was believed that James would hang up his sneakers. But recent rumors suggest that the King may return to play next season, albeit for a different franchise. Previously, the Golden State Warriors were expected to land James in the summer.

However, the Dallas Mavericks have now overtaken them as the most likely destination for the 38-year-old if he demands a trade. So much so that, James has reportedly told Kyrie Irving that he’ll think about joining the Mavs in the offseason.

Will LeBron James really change teams? Or is it just a ruse to put pressure on the Lakers to bolster the roster? We will find out in a couple of months.
