“He’s Too Good Holy”- Alexander Volkanovski’s Dominant Win Against Yair Rodriguez at UFC 290 Has Fans in Awe of the UFC Champ

Alexander Volkanovski continues his resin atop the UFC featherweight division. ‘The Great’ Volkanovski TKO’d interim champion Yair Rodriguez in the third round in their co-main event fight at UFC 290. Many predicted Rodriguez to be Volkanovski’s toughest challenge to date. However, the man from Down Under once again proved why he was the champion.

Volkanovski was coming off his loss against lightweight champion Islam Makhachev in February. Despite a strong showing there, ‘Volk’ could not get the job done. Rodriguez had won the interim title that same night and set his sights on the title.

The UFC 290 main event was not a dull affair. ‘El Pantera’ put his dynamic striking on full display while the champion took a wrestling-heavy approach. Volkanovski scored three takedowns in the first round. He also dealt some serious damage through some vicious ground and pound.

Rodriguez also returned fire from the bottom, cutting Volkanovski with an elbow strike. But his best moments were on the feet where he even hurt the champion with a combo in the third. Volkanovski caught him later with a right hand and took down the stunned Rodriguez. He followed it up with ground and pound before the referee stepped in.

The UFC faithful quickly took to social media to heap praise on the featherweight champion.
