Alexander Volkanovski believes Aljamain Sterling deserves title shot over Brazilian knockout artist — ‘In a great position’

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Featherweight king Alexander Volkanovski has one eye on a retirement fight against Justin Gaethje and the other on the next wave of Featherweight contenders. “The Great” successfully defended his 145-pound title at UFC 333 last weekend, handing the previously undefeated Movsar Evloev his first professional loss with a technical knockout in the second round ( watch highlights ). Afterward, Volkanovski expressed interest in moving back to Lightweight for one final fight against Gaethje . The 38-year-old said he would retire regardless of the result, allowing both divisions to move forward without being held up.
