Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC Alexander Volkanovski made history at UFC 314 after winning a back-and-forth war against Diego Lopes to reclaim the featherweight title in the main event.
The victory crowns Volkanovski as champion again and he becomes the first fighter over 35 years old to hold a UFC title in any division from 155 pounds or below. While he had to battle through some adversity, Volkanovski largely put on a vintage performance to outwork and outstrike Lopes across all five rounds.
