Volkanovski named the favorite for the Topuria vs. Holloway fight

Dmitriy Kel Sept. 2, 2024, 5 a.m.

Former UFC featherweight champion Aleksander Volkanovski spoke out about the fight between current titleholder Elijah Topuria and Max Holloway, which takes place on October 26 at UFC 308 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

"Who would I rather fight? Obviously Elijah, because he beat me. I want to get even with him, but ultimately the main thing is to get the belt back.

Who's gonna win? Probably Max. But again, it's going to be a tough fight. Elijah is good on his hands, he's not easily shaken, he'll keep coming forward and looking for the finish, but I think Max will be an impenetrable opponent for him. But if Elijah gets past him, he'll prove he's a champion for a reason, although I'll take the belt from him either way," MMA Fighting quotes Volkanovski as saying.
