Alexandr Ormanji Oct. 20, 2023, 4:30 a.m.

Alex Volkanovski, UFC featherweight champion, spoke about his meeting with Islam Makhachev on the eve of their rematch.

“Yes, everything is fine, I saw him and Islam didn’t look too happy. Perhaps he was trying to intimidate me. I don’t know what he was trying to do, but I’m not easily intimidated. Especially when the last thing I remember is me looking down on him and beating him up on the ground. That's all I remember."

Let us remind you that the second fight between Volkanovski and Makhachev will take place on October 21 in Abu Dhabi.
