LAS VEGAS – Undefeated featherweight contender Lerone Murphy will be keeping a close eye on what goes down between Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes in the UFC 314 main event.
Murphy (16-0-1 MMA, 8-0-1 UFC) placed his name closer to the division’s top by defeating Josh Emmett in the UFC on ESPN 65 main event at the UFC Apex. It was a solid unanimous decision win that he described as “masterful.” For Murphy, it’s all about getting closer to a title shot.
At UFC 314, the vacant title will be on the line when former champ Volkanovski (26-4 MMA, 13-3 UFC) takes on Lopes (26-6 MMA, 5-1 UFC) in the marquee bout. Murphy has an idea of what could go down at Kaseya Center in Miami.
