Russian MMA fighter Volkov said that troubled times have come in the UFC heavyweight division
Russian mixed martial artist (MMA) Alexander Volkov at a press conference before the UFC Fight Night 204 tournament spoke about performances in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).
The athlete said that it would be logical for the UFC leadership to organize a fight for a temporary belt in the heavyweight division. “But it is not yet clear who will fight for him. Troubled times have come. But the more interesting, the more challenges there will be, the more new names will appear, ”the Russian considered.
Volkov arrived in London on March 13 for a duel with Briton Tom Aspinall. The UFC expressed concern that the fight of the Russian in the UK could fail for political reasons. The head of the organization, Dana White, allowed Volkov’s fight to be postponed to another date.
The last time Volkov entered the octagon was in October 2021. Then he defeated Marcin Tybura. In total, the athlete has 34 wins with nine defeats.
