Islam Makhachev’s reign of terror in the lightweight division continued at UFC 294 when he delivered a statement title defense over fellow champion Alexander Volkanvoski.
Makhachev (25-1 MMA, 14-1 UFC) extended his winning streak to 13 consecutive fights with a first-round head kick knockout of Volkanovski (26-3 MMA, 13-2 UFC) at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, and despite only having three championship bouts in the division, he’s looking rather untouchable.
