Amid continued links to a return to action as soon as UFC 314, former champion, Alexander Volkanovski hopes news of his return to the Octagon is made available imminently — as the Australian targets a featherweight title rematch with former-foe, Ilia Topuria in April.
Volkanovski, the current number one ranked featherweight contender, is tasked with snapping a two-fight losing skid in his return to competition later this year, having remainded sidelined since UFC 297 back in February of last year.
On that occasion, New South Wales fan-favorite, Volkanovski would suffer his first defeat via stoppage at the featherweight limit, dropping his title to boot in his title clash with the unbeaten finishing ace, Topuria.
