While Movsar
\nEvloev<\/a> is grateful to be taking on a legend in his maiden title
\nbout in the
\nUltimate Fighting Championship<\/a>, the Russian foresees one-way
\ntraffic.<\/p>\n

Evloev (20-0) is set to challenge Volkanovski (28-4) for the UFC
\nfeatherweight championship in the
\nUFC 333<\/a> main event on Oct. 24 in Abu Dhabi. The matchup has
\nbeen brewing for quite some time now and Evloev claims his skills
\nhave improved, predicting he\u2019ll have his way against the two-time
\nAussie champ.<\/p>\n

Movsar Evloev questions Alexander Volkanovski\u2019s strategy ahead
\nof their UFC 333 title fight<\/h2>\n

Evloev opened up about his upcoming fight with Volkanovski in an
\ninterview with MMA Junkie, in which he outlined his improvements in
\nthe striking department.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo become a champion while beating a legend, that’s the dream of
\nfighters,\u201d Evloev said. \u201cMy skills are getting better. My striking,
\neveryone noticed, is a little bit better than I do before. We’re
\nconfident to fight with a guy like Alex. We respect him. We’ll
\nrespect him even after we beat him. Nothing but respect, but this
\nis my time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Volkanovski has previously expressed confidence in his ability to
\ndeal with Evloev’s wrestling pressure and force the fight into a
\nstriking battle. The latter questions the champ\u2019s approach.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s been a little illogical,\u201d Evloev added. \u201cI will do anything I
\nwant. Whenever I decide to take him down, I will take him down\u2026 I’m
\nnot scared of his striking skills, too. He’s great. But like I
\nsaid, my time is coming. Oct. 24, everybody will see. I’m going to
\nwin.\u201d<\/p>\n
