Alexander Volkanovski Shuts Down Retirement Rumors

Alexander Volkanovski doesn’t have any retirement plans yet.

Volkanovski is scheduled to defend his featherweight title in a rematch against Diego Lopes at UFC 325 on Jan. 31 in front of a home crowd at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, Australia. Volkanovski recently shut down all talks of this being his last outing. “The Great” plans to defend his title against contenders like Leron Murphy or Movsar Evloev if he beats Lopes. However, Volkanovski plans to put on a showing against Lopes that will make Murphy or Evloev think twice before fighting him.
