Former interim UFC featherweight champion Yair Rodriguez explained why he lost early to the former holder of the full title Alexandru Volkanovski in July last year.

“I need to listen to my corner more. I didn't listen to him. Before the fight, I did everything. In the battle, I made adjustments and gradually gained momentum. I think I was doing well until I missed a big shot.

I think he hit me in the head in the third round, and I didn’t take a break. My corner told me to take a break, but I didn’t listen. I immediately returned to the fight, after which I missed a right hand and almost passed out,” Rodriguez said on The MMA Hour.
