It’s been a few days since the featherweight title fight between Alexander Volkanovksi and Max Holloway at UFC 251 and the 145-pound division is still in the limelight.

There are two reasons: first, because everyone wants to know who Volkanovski’s next challenger will be; and second is that Wednesday’s Fight Island main event features two surging contenders that someday hope to get a shot at the belt.
