Alexander Volkanovski Biography
The Great

Featherweight is a storied division with a handful of fighters who could be considered “the best ever.” Volkanovski ranks right at the top of that list. The Aussie has twice held the UFC featherweight championship, with several successful title defenses, and has wins over fellow all-time greats such as Max Holloway and Jose Aldo. The oldest fighter to win, and defend, the featherweight title, Volkanovski is plugging along at the top of the game far longer than his contemporaries.

"Adversity is a privilege."
Alexander "The Great" Volkanovski
