In August 2023, Alexander Volkov choked out Tai Tuivasa with a rare Ezekiel hold and went on a three-fight win streak. "Drago" was eager to return to the cage before the end of the year, but the promotion couldn't organize the fight for the Russian quickly. Only on March 26, 2024 it became known that Volkov would hold the next fight with the dangerous Brazilian Jailton Almeida. More details of the fight are in the Telecomasia.net article.
