UFC Fight Night 207 tournament poster: Volkov vs. RozenstruikHeavyweights, having lost their last fights, started cautiously. Rozenstrike was the first to break: Big Boy went to the exchange, was rebuffed, and then he himself ran into Drago's blow. Only half of the first round had passed, and the Surinamese was already knocked down — Sasha went to finish off and referee Herb Dean stopped the fight at the moment when Jairzinho seemed to be getting to his feet. There can be no complaints about Drago: the Russians did their job 11 out of 10 and with the greatest probability would «throw» the shocked opponent even more. But the judge, whom the fighter again accuses of prematurely stopping, will definitely get it from the Western media. One way or another, Volkov closed the March defeat from Tom Aspinall. The Russian is back in the Candidates race in the heavyweight division. Which, given the boxing spree of champion Francis Ngannou and the possible debut of the great Jon Jones, is getting more and more exciting.
"As usual, I'm ready for new challenges. I can go to the duel in a short period of time. I know what's going on in the division, a lot of guys are going to fight in September. But I'm here — we'll wait & # 34;, — these are Sasha's first words after the 45th professional fight.
