Alexander Volkanovski has had over a year to reflect on his loss to Ilia Topuria, finally breaking his silence about what he would have done differently.

In the co-main event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, flyweight champion Alexandre Pantoja (30-5 MMA, 14-3 UFC) took his time and took apart challenger Kai Kara-France (25-12 MMA, 8-5 UFC) for a third-round submission and his fourth title defense.

There are only two fighters who have survived against Topuria in MMA. Josh Emmett, who was praised for his toughness across five rounds, and another featherweight, who could go all the way to the title. Youssef Zalal is the first and only fighter to reach a three-round decision with Topuria.
