Volkanovski Reflects on Victory Over Lopez

MMA

Alexander Volkanovski shared his thoughts on defeating Diego Lopez and regaining the UFC featherweight championship belt.

He stated, “It feels amazing to be back. The support I`ve received has been incredible. Throughout the week, and even before the fight, I promised my daughters I would bring the belt home. But now, I realize it`s about more than just the belt. My message is for everyone who doubted me. Despite two losses, two knockouts, being 35 years old, and a period of inactivity, I proved myself again. And I did it against Diego Lopez, who fought an excellent fight.”
