Alexander Volkov pobedio Waldo Cortes-Acosta Odluka (jednoglasna) · R3 5:00

Alexander Volkov defeated Waldo Cortes-Acosta by unanimous decision in the heavyweight bout at UFC 328 on May 9, 2026, going the full three rounds. Volkov dictated range with leg kicks and his jab throughout, with all three judges — Jay Pettry, Tristen Critchfield, and Tyler Treese — scoring the opening round 10-9 in his favor. Cortes-Acosta drew blood and landed some thudding low kicks but could not establish a consistent path inside against Volkov’s counter-punching approach; both men picked up the pace in the third round, though not enough to shift the scorecards. The crowd booed heavily following the decision announcement, and Volkov could barely be heard over the arena noise during his post-fight interview. He called out Alex Pereira afterward.

Pregled borbe

A de facto heavyweight title eliminator, with both men ranked inside the top four and the winner primed for a championship opportunity. Volkov (39-11) brings elite counter-striking and an 80-inch reach; Cortes-Acosta (17-2) arrives on a three-fight finishing streak capped by a first-round KO of Derrick Lewis, trading technical precision against relentless Dominican forward pressure in a fight that could end quickly in either direction.

Ključevi pobede

Alexander Volkov

  1. Control range with the jab and footwork, maintaining the distance where his 80-inch reach and counter accuracy are most effective.
  2. Use body kicks and high kicks to slow Cortes-Acosta's forward momentum before exchanges escalate to close range.
  3. If pressured against the cage, drag the fight to the clinch to neutralize power striking and reset the distance.

Waldo Cortes-Acosta

  1. Cut off the cage with lateral movement to collapse the range where Volkov's reach advantage disappears and exchanges favor him.
  2. Throw higher volume early and force Volkov into reactive mode rather than allowing him to dictate pace and distance.
  3. Avoid single-shot exchanges and work head-body combinations — Volkov's chin is durable at range but vulnerable to sustained inside combinations.
