Renato Moicano believes Alexander Volkanovski deserves the next shot at UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway more than Frankie Edgar, but the top contender isn’t overly upset at the UFC’s booking of Holloway vs. Edgar.
“I think Max and Volkanovski makes more sense, because Volkanovski is coming off a big win,” Moicano told Bloody Elbow. “He beat Chad Mendes; Mendes was a great contender. And Jose Aldo is a legend. So for me, the fight to do is Max and Volkanovski.”
Holloway and Edgar are set to meet at UFC 240 on July 27 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
