Laying claim to victories over former undisputed UFC featherweight champions, Jose Aldo, and Max Holloway, current division kingpin, Alexander Volkanovski admits he is still irked by the fact he missed out on a fight with the only other former division kingpin, Conor McGregor – describing a pair of him and the Dubliner as “pretty special”.
Volkanovski, the current featherweight champion under the banner of the UFC, is slated to return to the Octagon in July during International Fight atop a UFC 290 pay-per-view event – taking on interim gold holder, Yair Rodrîguez in the duo’s championship unification clash.
