UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski spoke about the fight with the challenger Ilia Topuria, which will take place on February 17 at the UFC 298 tournament in Anaheim.

“He’s a great competitor. There is a lot of hype around this guy, he is powerful and does not know the bitterness of defeat. I still think this is the perfect fight for me. A lot of people say that my opponent is dangerous, and that’s true,” said the Australian MMA Junkie.

Let us remind you that the upcoming fight will be Volkanovski’s first after a knockout defeat from lightweight division champion Islam Makhachev. The meeting took place at UFC 294 last October.
