SYDNEY – Alexander Volkanovski thinks an Islam Makhachev rematch would be perfect for UFC 300.
Featherweight champion Volkanovski (26-2 MMA, 13-1 UFC) has mapped out a two-fight plan, which starts with a title defense against unbeaten contender Ilia Topuria, followed by a rematch with lightweight champion Makhachev.
Makhachev (24-1 MMA, 13-1 UFC) defends his belt when he runs things back with Charles Oliveira in the UFC 294 main event on Oct. 21 in Abu Dhabi.
