UFC Featherweight Champion Mentor Alexandra Volkanovski Joe Lopez shared his expectations from the upcoming fight of his ward against the owner of the temporary belt Yair Rodriguez. The meeting of these fighters will headline the UFC 290 tournament, which will be held on the night of July 9 in Las Vegas.
“I don't think Yair dated someone as strong as Alex. It always surprises people. If Alex reaches it, he will tear it apart. And it will happen because Rodriguez will most likely throw elbows and knees.
We did a lot of work on the clinch to avoid any possible damage, ”The AllStar quotes Lopez.
