Russian heavyweight Alexander Volkov will win a duel with Frenchman Cyril Gan, and only then will he win the UFC heavyweight championship belt, AMC Fight Nights belt holder Dmitry Bikrev told .
Volkov will have a rematch with Gan at UFC 308 in Abu Dhabi on October 26. The heavyweights had their first fight in June 2021; the Frenchman won by unanimous decision.
— I feel very good about a rematch with Gan. I think Sanya has every chance of winning. It is clear from him that he has grown, changed and is developing mentally. I am sure that Volkov will also be charged and motivated against Gan. It will be a completely different fight. I am convinced that Sasha will win. We are looking forward to this fight. And after this meeting, all that remains is to fight for the title. There are no other options, ”Bikrev told .
