Alexander Volkanovski believes it would be perfectly fair for his rival Ilia Topuria to receive a crack at the UFC lightweight championship.
As we know, Ilia Topuria is set to make the move up to the lightweight division. It’s something that has been a long time coming, and after managing to conquer featherweight, he’s ready to try and do the same thing at 155 pounds.
The idea is that his next fight could actually be for the title against reigning champion Islam Makhachev. Of course, some people aren’t entirely convinced that this would be the best course of action, believing he’d have to earn it against a contender first.
