Lerone Murphy Shifts His Mindset After Missing Out on Title Shot Vs. Alexander Volkanovski

Despite Volkanovski agreeing to fight Murphy after his win over Pico at UFC 319, Diego Lopes received the UFC 325 title shot instead, even though he lost his previous fight (UFC 314). After getting snubbed, Murphy was frustrated at first, but he changed his tune, saying, “No complaints, just work.” He later added that he’ll use the setback as fuel: “I can let it hinder me.”
