Before the walkout.
Volkov says he earned his first karate belt at nine. His UFC questionnaire lists an M-1 Global heavyweight championship and Bellator heavyweight tournament wins. This is a long career with more chapters than the latest contender conversation.
THE FIGHTING STYLEWhat we’d watch.
UFC-listed style: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
His listed height and reach make long-range exchanges a logical area to watch. The test is keeping those weapons useful when an opponent gets close.
Background follows the cited public biography. The style discussion is our interpretation, not a report from inside this camp.
