Miami – “Oldman Wulk” is still there.
Alexander Volcanovsky presented a vintage performance to re -claim the feederweight title with a unanimous decision against Diego Lopes on Saturday night at the UFC 314’s main event at the Casia Center. The judges contested 49-46, 49-46 and 48-47.
With the win, Volcanovsky became the first fighter over the age of 35, who won the World Title Fight in the class weighing less than 170 pounds. And he did this with a performance that indicated a return to the fighter, which dominated the 145 pound division from 2019 to 2023, and cement himself as the Hall of Family with three of the three wins on Max Holve. However, a pair of knockout losses to Islam Makhachu and Elias Topuria was questioned by people whether their best years are behind it.
Instead, 36 -year -old Volcanovsky proved that he still has a lot of power in the division, though he experienced his confidence when he had to pull herself from the canvas after late in the second round. Instead of folding, Volcanovsky stabilized himself and used a movement and a valid jaw to return a growing challenge in the loops.
“It’s good to come back,” said Volcanoski. “I promised my girls that I would return the belt to them, but then I was thinking that it didn’t matter to bring the belt back.
Trouble is a privilege. You hear people talking about it all the time. It’s really This moment is incredible. “
On Saturday night, the feeder was born on the title for Volcanovsky on the title when Topuria decided to be empty and lighter. Although a fighter out of Australia’s New South Wales had lost constant battles through a knockout, his body’s body gave him the title.
Standing in front of him was an emerging star in the loops, fighting a Brazilian Mexico, which began rapidly in 2023 after the start of his UFC in a brief notice against Mosar Evelov. 30, Lopeis, 30, was unbeaten on his next five battles to pushed himself into the title image as a favorite of fans.
But the experience will defeat young people that night. Volcanovsky implemented a spectacular game project behind the movement, droping himself out of a sharp jaw and ousting himself before leaving himself too open to the counter.
Volcanovsky won the opening strike against the loops, touching the left hand, which entered his opponent’s knees first and descending into his right hands.
Just as it appeared that in the second phase, the fight was turning away from the loops, so he put Wulkanovsky down in the right hand. But Volcanovsky returned to the horse, though he was cautious with the right hand of the loops, which proved to be a dangerous weapon.
Volcanovsky refused to put the jaw in the next 15 minutes and refused to put the loops under increasing pressure. The loop would occasionally be trapped in his exchange, but Volcanovski was wise on the project and pulled himself out of the fire before being burned. Volcanovsky suffered some damage as the loops were able to wear heavy maize, which includes an uphearted cut in Round 3, which opened the cut around the right eye of the Volcanoski.
But after counting many people, Volcanovsky fought the storm and fought brilliantly. They doubled the loops in 134-67, important strikes. Although he was only 1-For-11 in the tech down, these efforts prevented Loops from opening their crime.
In an increase in the fighting, Volcanovsky cited a new focus on claiming the title that he had once held for four years. The result of this dedication ends, and a new era begins with a feeder weight division in which it has a new blood, which includes the choice of Jane Silva, Evilov, Laron Murphy and the recently signed Aaron Pico.
For now, Volcanovsky can take the taste of his victory after silenced the nicers who thought that Father Time would be the last laugh.
“If you have difficulties, you return yourself, it will only make you stronger, even if it does not result.” “But many times, if you really chase it. Look what can happen. You can break the record. This is S S S S S S S Sayin-people are going to write books. This is a movie!”
