This is a f🅠ascinating match up between two fighters who so far in their respective careers have been domina🔜nt in their divisions.
Volkanovski will of course have to bulk up a lot to make the𒁃 big size difference count as little aꦅs possible, however, with home support from the crowd he will have in Perth, this could spur on Volkanovski and really help him on fight night.
How do you think this fight will go?
Will Makhachev get another dominant win on his record or will❀ Volkanovski become a two weight world champion?
