Pavlovic: "I promise to come back stronger and wiser."

Former UFC interim heavyweight belt challenger Sergey Pavlovic issued a statement following his loss to Alexander Volkov.

"It wasn't my day, things didn't go according to plan. I was ready for everything, but I was aiming too hard for the knockout and missed a lot of unnecessary punches. The result was a defeat on points. It was very emotional and hard for me, especially knowing that I did not meet your expectations," - wrote Pavlovic in Instagram.

Recall, Pavlovic lost to Volkov by unanimous decision of judges in the framework of the tournament UFC on ABC 6. The show took place on June 22 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
