Alexander Volkanovski Suggests Jack Della Maddalena to Avoid Grappling With Makhachev

Volkanovski advised Maddalena to avoid going to the ground in his first title defense against the Dagestani wrestler this weekend. “Jack’s great on the ground, but that’s Islam’s world,” Volkanovski said. Maddalena has previously said he plans to keep the fight standing, while Makhachev has also declared he's not afraid to strike with the welterweight champion if wrestling doesn't work.
