Movsar Evloev Says Yair Rodriguez, Jean Silva Have To Beat Him to Fight for Title

Movsar Evloev isn’t letting anyone jump the featherweight title queue ahead of him.

Evloev is riding a nine-fight winning streak in the UFC with wins over the likes of Dan Ige, Arnold Allen, Diego Lopes and Aljamain Sterling. However, Evloev is still not the most obvious contender at 145 pounds, which he thinks is due to lack of finishes on his resume.

Meanwhile, the featherweight title picture changed drastically at UFC 314 last weekend when Alexander Volkanovski won the vacant title against Diego Lopes in the main event.
