Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Heavyweight bruisers Timothy Johnson and Alexander Volkov dueled last night (Nov. 19, 2016) at UFC Fight Night 99 inside The SSE Arena in Belfast, northern Island.
Johnson has proven himself a quality fighter, but this was a new challenge. After a facing a wave of burly grapplers, the wrestler found himself inside the cage with a lanky kickboxer. Volkov showed his potential years ago by snatching up the Bellator Heavyweight crown, but he fell on some hard times and was released. Since then, the 28-year-old picked up a couple wins and finally made the walk into the Octagon for the first time last night.
