Quick read
Alexander Volkov cemented his position as the number-one heavyweight contender at UFC 321, but a series of circumstances has pushed a title shot further away. Tom Aspinall's timeline, Pereira's move to heavyweight, and the emergence of contenders such as Jailton Almeida and Sergei Pavlovich have all complicated the picture. With Aspinall likely not returning until late in the year, Volkov's title opportunity looks unlikely before spring at the earliest.
