Head of AMC Fight Nights Kamil Gadjiev believes that the Russian Alexandra Volkova there aren’t many chances of winning the UFC heavyweight belt.
On Saturday in Saudi Arabia, Volkov defeated his compatriot Sergei Pavlovich by unanimous decision in the UFC tournament. For him, this victory was the 38th of his career with 10 defeats. Prior to this fight, the 35-year-old fighter was ranked fifth in the UFC heavyweight rankings.
– If Volkov is now entitled to a rematch with Tom Aspinall (in March 2022, the Russian lost by strangulation in the first round – editor’s note), what are his chances?
– Nothing will change. Aspinall takes him down and finishes there. Aspinall is just a clumsy, tough fighter. His fight is on another level. I heard that Sanya received a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu. There is a certain respect here for his services in MMA. Well, Volkov is heavy, and there aren’t many of them. Well, we won’t make Sanya Volkov an outstanding wrestler, and we probably don’t need to.
— Do you see Volkov’s championship chances?
“I think Sanya Volkov is unlikely to become a champion, but he will remain at the top for many years, because the guy really develops in everything,” reports correspondent, reporting Gadzhiev’s words.
