The other day in the network there was information that the next opponent of UFC heavyweight Alexander Volkov will be Brazilian heavyweight Jailton Almeida. However, today the general director of the promotion Dana White denied this information. The functionary officially announced the fight between Volkov and Sergey Pavlovich. This confrontation will take place on June 22 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, as part of the co-main event at UFC On ABC 6. It should be noted that this tournament will be headed by the fight of the former champion of the promotion in the middleweight Robert Whittaker with the prospect of this division Hamzat Chimaev.
Recall that in his last fight Pavlovic lost by knockout to Tom Aspinall. At stake in that fight was the UFC interim heavyweight title.
