Volkanovski was cheered on by fans as he danced to ‘baddest of them all’ but he soon ran out of moves and just started shadowboxing instead. The 34-year-old ended his moment in the spotlight by waving to his adoring fans who were obviously proud of his performance as an underdog 10lbs above his usual weight class.It was expected that he will return to the 145lb division to face Yair Rodriguez, who won the interim featherweight title at UFC 284, in a unification fight.
However, Makhachev’s next opponent is unclear as there’s no obvious number-one contender at lightweight right now and fans are clamoring for him to rematch Volkanovski. So, the Aussie fighter could decide to stay in his new weight class and go again with Makhachev rather than drop back down to solidify his featherweight reign.
