UFC bantamweight number one Sean O’Malley believes Alexander Volkanovski could be one of the biggest challenges of his professional career for Islam Makhachev.
“This dude will be hard to beat,” the American said in an interview with Helen Yeh. “I have a strange premonition that Alexander Volkanovski will be a much more serious test for Islam Makhachev than everyone thinks. Will he be able to cope with Islam? If Alex can’t, then I don’t know who can.”
Recall that the title superfight between Islam Makhachev and Alexander Volkanovski, in which the Russian will defend the UFC lightweight championship belt, will head the UFC 284 tournament in Perth, Australia, on February 11. At the same time, the Australian, who owns the UFC featherweight title, will put the title of the organization’s best fighter, regardless of weight, on the line.
