At UFC 267 , Alexander Volkov won again, which puts him in a bit of a unique position. A former Bellator champion and longtime UFC heavyweight contender, Volkov (34-9 MMA, 8-3 UFC) has beaten a who’s who of top divisional talent – but has also lost to multiple fighters above him in the UFC rankings, which puts him in a confusion spot. Following his unanimous decision win over Marcin Tybura on Saturday, Volkov opened up about his next fight, which will be delayed due to the recent birth of a son as well as the current state of the division. “Right now, I don’t have any names because how I told in the octagon, 11 days ago, my youngest son was born,” Volkov said at a post fight news conference (via MMA Fighting ). “Right now, I just want to take a little bit of rest to be with my family.
