Alexander Volkov Explains Why He Deserves Next Heavyweight Title Shot After UFC 321 Win

Volkov defended his split decision win over #5-ranked Jailton Almeida on the main card of UFC 321, insisting the fight’s lack of action wasn’t his fault. “I know it wasn’t a great performance, but not because of me,” he said.
