UFC Fight Night 99 results: Alexander Volkov splits Timothy Johnson in Octagon debut

Heavyweights Timothy Johnson and former Bellator MMA champion Alexander Volkov -- who was making his Octagon debut -- fought in the second bout on UFC Fight Night 99’s main card on Fight Pass this afternoon (Sat., Nov. 19, 2016) from inside The SSE Arena in Belfast, northern Ireland.

The mustachioed Johnson opened up by circling the cage. He landed a short cross in an exchange. Volkov hit a nice knee. Volkov backed him up with a nice stepping flurry, then drove an underhook and looked for a single in the clinch. He got Johnson to turtle and opened up.
