Alexander Volkanovski immediately accepts Movsar Evloev callout after UFC London

The next
UFC featherweight title fight has seemingly been
decided. 

Movsar
Evloev (20-0) and Lerone
Murphy (17-1) put their undefeated records on the line in a
featherweight title eliminator in the main event at
UFC London on Saturday. Evloev displayed his superiority on the
ground while also holding his own in the striking against the
Englishman. Despite a point deduction due to a low blow in the
fourth round, Evloev earned a majority decision victory. 

Evloev lost no time in calling for the next title shot against
Alexander
Volkanovski, who was listening to the Russian live. Evloev
preferably wants to make a quick turnaround to challenge
Volkanovski in May.

“He’s waiting for me for a really long time,” Evloev said on the
UFC London post-fight show. “And before he gets too old let’s make
it happen… May, I’m ready. And if Alex is ready, let’s
dance.” 

A Few Tricks Up His Sleeve

Volkanovski has been acknowledging Evloev as a deserving contender
for a while now. However, Murphy had entered the fray with a
highlight-reel knockout win over Aaron Pico
last year. With Evloev’s victory over Murphy, Volkanovski didn’t
hesitate to accept the Russian’s callout.

  “Old man Volk. This old man still has some tricks left,”
Volkanovski said. “Bring it on. He’s right, I have been calling him
out because I believe he has been deserving for quite some time.
And I love that he said May. That means he’s ready to turn it
around pretty quick.”
