Alistair Overeem’s final run at UFC heavyweight gold will see him having to get past Alexander Volkov next.
As per UFC president Dana White (via ESPN), the pair of heavyweights are set to headline the promotion’s upcoming February 6 event.
An official announcement of the fight should be made soon, though there is no location for the fight as of yet.
Overeem, 40, is coming off a TKO win over Augusto Sakai in September which put him on a two-fight winning streak. He has also won four of his last five outings as he has repeatedly spoken of having one final run in mixed martial arts to win the one title that has eluded him — the UFC heavyweight strap.
The Dutchman would fail in his only attempt when he was knocked out by current champion Stipe Miocic in their UFC 203 headliner back in September 2016. A win against Volkov, however, could see him move next in line after Francis Ngannou.
Volkov, meanwhile, is coming off a second-round TKO win over Walt Harris last month. Overall, the Russian is 6-2 in the UFC and will be hoping a win over Overeem puts him right back into title contention after previously enjoying a 4-0 start with the promotion.
The duo were originally set to collide in April last year in the main event of UFC Saint Petersburg. However, Volkov had to pull out with Overeem going on to TKO Aleksei Oleinik who stepped in as a replacement.

A match up between two ranked heavyweights will take place at UFC 254 this October when Alexander Volkov faces off against Walt Harris.
First reported to Russian news outlet Sports.ru before later being confirmed by sources to ESPN that the bout would be joining the line-up at UFC 254 to be headlined by Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Justin Gaethje.
Coming off the main event loss to Curtis Blaydes, Volkov now looks to re-enter the win column. Upon his entry into the UFC Volkov looked to be on a fast track to the title defeating five opponents in a row including former Heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum.
This win streak ended when he came up against Derek Lewis who found the knockout blow ten seconds before the end of the fight that looked to have been in favor of Volkov. After taking some time off Volkov returned to face UFC newcomer Greg Hardy. In this bout, he dominated hardy winning a decision.
Harris is also coming off a loss, this came in the main event bout against Alistair Overeem. After facing some tragic times in his personal life, Harris was looking to enter back into the octagon and continue on the winning streak that had seen him enter the top ten rankings. Unfortunately, this is not what happened instead, Harris’s losing streak was over after being TKO’d by Overeem in the second round.
The card is to be headlined with a title unification bout between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Justin Gaethje. Returning after the tragic passing of his father, Khabib is looking to keep his undefeated record while closing what seems to be the second to last fight of his career. Gaethje, after defeating Tony Ferguson to become the interim champion at UFC 249 is looking to gain his first unified title in the UFC by taking out the undefeated Russian.
