Alexander Volkanovski won the UFC featherweight title by defeating Diego Lopes at UFC 314. His performance was a mix of resilience and reflection, as he acknowledges missed opportunities during the fight. Following his victory, Volkanovski pointed out the presence of contenders like Movsar Evloev and Yair Rodriguez in the division. With Evloev boasting an impressive 19-0 record and Rodriguez also vying for a rematch, Volkanovski remains open to the possibilities ahead while emphasizing his eagerness to regain his dominance in the featherweight category.
I feel like he was there to be hit. I feel like I could've done a lot more. I just didn't pull the trigger as much as I'd like - even though there were shots, I just stick out the jab, and it was right there. I could've done a lot more, but I'm my hardest critic.
I'll watch it back, and then we'll see, but obviously everyone kind of counting me out, 'Oh, is he done?' Obviously I took some shots and I didn't go lights out. That's good.
