Werdum vs Volkov in a heavyweight main event battle.

On Saturday, March 17, UFC will return to London with a showcase of a who’s who of UK based talent. No.3 ranked Fabricio Werdum takes on No.7 ranked Alexander Volkov in a heavyweight main event battle.

Standing in his way however, is Russia’s Alexander Volkov (29-6; fighting out of Moscow, Russia) who is undefeated in his last five MMA bouts and has taken the UFC by storm since making his debut in 2016. Most recently, Volkov knocked out Stefan Struve in his home country of the Netherlands in September last year cementing his status as one of the divisions most exciting prospects.

With both athletes looking to prove their position for title contention, everything will be to play for as they step into the Octagon® on March 17.
