UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev admitted that the title holder is of a lower category Alexander Volkanovski in February of this year gave him the hardest fight of his career.

Let us remind you that in a tense confrontation the Dagestani won by unanimous decision. Already this Saturday at the UFC 294 tournament in Abu Dhabi, UAE, the fighters will have a rematch.

“Volkanovski is the hardest fight of my life. Because this was the first time I fought five rounds. I threw hard. You have to ask Alex, what did he do to win?

Some people say the fight was close because my opponent took the last minute of the fight. Everyone who understands MMA agrees that I won by unanimous decision,” MMA Mania quotes Makhachev.
