Alexander Volkov vs Aspinall/Blaydes 2
Whoever loses this fight next month should rematch Volkov early next year, volkov gets a title shot if he wins pic.twitter.com/YrAAmlxSNN

Alexander Volkov vs Ciryl Gane
It’s already happened, but what else makes sense? I don’t think you give Volkov a title shot after that, especially not against Aspinall. One more high level win and he earns it. pic.twitter.com/aaVZu7oXIH
