‘Make a Statement’: Alexander Volkanovski Says Diego Lopes Rematch Is Proof Fight

The featherweight champion framed his Lopes rematch as a legacy test, not routine business. “I really want to make a statement,” he said. “This isn’t just another title fight… I have something to prove… that I’m still that dominant champ they remember.” Volk defeated Lopes in their first meeting last year. Now they will headline UFC 325 on 30 January.
