UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski once again spoke about a potential rematch with the current title holder in a division higher Islam Makhachev.

This time, the Australian expressed a desire to fight again with the Russian at the UFC 300 tournament, which will take place in the first quarter of next year.

“I think there is a lot of sense in a fight against Makhachev. Of course, it would be great, especially if my hand was raised at UFC 300, but we'll see what we can do. I think this is one of the biggest fights you can have. Many people want to see him again.

That fight was very, very competitive, and I guarantee you that next time I will prevail,” Volkanovski was quoted as saying by Middle Easy.
