  "account": "UFC 333 showcased Alexander Volkov's impressive career, despite not having claimed UFC gold after a decade in the promotion. The Russian heavyweight fought 20 times in the UFC and compiled a 15-5 record in title fights. Volkov's most controversial loss came against Ciryl Gane at UFC 310, which some believed he should have won. Former UFC champion Stipe Miocic recently praised Volkov's experience and toughness, stating that if given the chance to become champion, Volkov would \"get it done.\" Miocic highlighted Volkov's quickness and ability to compete with the best in the division at 38 years old. With a 7-1 record in his last eight fights, Volkov's recent wins have solidified his case for a heavyweight title shot. However, the UFC's next title challenger could be determined by the outcome of the Alex Pereira vs. Sergei Pavlovich fight at UFC 335.",
