Alexander Volkanovski Rejects ‘Retirement Fight’ Talk Ahead of UFC 325 vs. Lopes

“If I were to get beaten up, would I come back to fight? No,” the 37-year-old featherweight champion said, despite retirement chatter from peers, “but that’s not my plan.” He expects to continue unless things go “horrendously wrong.” Volkanovski (27-4) added he’s motivated by fresh tests, calling “taking on an undefeated fighter in the UFC” appealing after this bout.
