UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski is willing to move up to welterweight to face Conor McGregor.
Volkanovski, 33, recently became the UFC's pound-for-pound No.1 fighter following Kamaru Usman's welterweight title loss to Leon Edwards last month. The featherweight champion has cleared out most of the top contenders and former champions in his division other than McGregor, who won the 145lb title by knocking out Jose Aldo in just 13-seconds seven years ago.
McGregor become a two-weight champion by moving up to lightweight after his record-breaking win over Aldo and has never never fought at featherweight since. Volkanovski, who started his MMA career as a middleweight, is open to moving up two weight classes to welcome McGregor's return to the octagon.
