It took a little over two minutes for Russian Alexander Volkov to deal with Moldavian Alexander Romanov at UFC Fight Night 221 in Las Vegas and retain his place in the top ten UFC heavyweights.
Not without the help of grabbing the net, having defended himself from the opponent’s first and last attempt to carry out a takedown, “Drago” went on the attack and delivered several blows to “King Kong”, who first tried to throw himself at his feet, and then, under a hail of finishing blows, went into a deaf defense, forcing Referee Mark Smith stopped the fight at 2:16 of the first round.
In an interview after the fight, Alexander Volkov, who occupies the eighth line in the top ten of the division, said that he would like to meet an opponent ahead of him in the ranking in the next fight.
