Volkanovski replaced Brazilian Charles Oliveira during the tournament. He received a cut on his eyebrow, which is why he will not be able to enter the octagon.
Kamaru Usman spoke for the first time about the upcoming fight with Chimaev
“I will accept the fight that the UFC offers me. I never choose my opponents. But, of course, I would like to have the same chance. I would like to have the chance to become champion in two weight classes.
This is a chance to make history. There are many champions, but few title holders in two weight classes. I want to make history and win a second belt. I gave Volkanovski a chance to do it twice. And now I should also have a chance, ”Makhachev said on the TSN YouTube channel.
