Volkov criticizes heavyweight division for relying on single power punches

Alexander Volkov criticized many heavyweight fighters for their one-dimensional fighting style, comparing them to video game tanks with a single powerful strike. He specifically called out Sergei Pavlovich, Derrick Lewis, Jailton Almeida, and Marcos Rogerio de Lima for having just one good punch and nothing more. Volkov expressed frustration with fighting such opponents and stated he prefers to focus on improving his overall mixed martial arts skills rather than pursuing a title. He emphasized that he trains to become better as a fighter because he genuinely loves the sport and enjoys learning new techniques, not just to win championships.
