Alexander Volkov delivered a base finish earlier tonight (Saturday, February 6, 2021) at UFC Vegas 18 live on ESPN + from UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada, when “Drago” ended the veteran des heavyweight Alistair Overeem via second round TKO (punch).
Overeem opened the first round as he has in most of his recent fights taking his time and sensing his opponent. Unfortunately, Volkov was a player from the start and started to put pressure on Overeem with combinations. Overeem’s face started to take blood as he struggled to earn “Draco” respect.
Volkov really started to open up in the second as he broke through Overeem’s defense with ease. Overeem tried to break into the Russian suitor but Volkov shook him and bloodied him with more punches. Moments later, Volkov landed a powerful left hook around Overeem’s guard which let the veteran down. Volkov went for some insurance shots but the referee had already intervened.
