Hours before the UFC 324 event, two-time champion Alexander Volkanovski offered his analysis and prediction on the main showdown between Justin Gaethje and Paddy Pimblett. Volkanovski valued the qualities of both fighters — Gaethje's aggressiveness and damage against Pimblett's reach and versatility — and despite the favoritism of some analysts, he believes a technical strategy could define the interim champion. His comments provide perspective from an accomplished champion who knows the demands of fighting in high-profile events.
