Alexander Volkanovski doubts Movsar Evloev can outgrapple him
\nfor 25 minutes at UFC 333<\/h2>\n

Evloev has won all 10 of his UFC bouts by decision, but Volkanovski
\ndoubts the challenger can outgrapple him for five rounds. \u201cThe
\nGreat\u201d believes Evloev would need to catch him with a decisive
\nstrike to win.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrying to outgrapple me for 25 minutes, I can\u2019t see it,\u201d
\nVolkanovski told MMA Junkie. \u201cI believe that the only chance that
\nany of these guys have is for them to catch me\u2026 If he thinks he can
\nbeat me by decision or he thinks he can outgrapple me, I\u2019m sure
\nhe\u2019s gonna try, we\u2019ll see. I\u2019m just very confident in my skills and
\nthe fighter I still am\u2026 I think I can do it in pretty wild fashion.
\nI believe I can get a finish. I believe I can do it inside five\u2026 A
\nlot of people are going to go say after this fight, \u2018Is that the
\nbest Volk we’ve ever seen?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Volkanovski first won the title against Max
\nHolloway<\/a> in 2019 and defended it five times before losing to
\nIlia
\nTopuria<\/a> in 2024. He reclaimed the vacant championship against
\nDiego
\nLopes<\/a> last year after Topuria moved up to lightweight, then
\ndefended it in their rematch in January.<\/p>\n

\nVolkanovski<\/a> forecasts a spectacular finish of Movsar
\nEvloev<\/a> at #UFC333. “I think I can do it in pretty wild fashion.
\n… A lot of people are going to go say after this fight, ‘Is that
\nthe best Volk we’ve ever seen?'” (via @Farah_Hannoun)
