Off the back of his close, unanimous decision victory over undisputed featherweight champion, Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 284 earlier this month, lightweight kingpin, Islam Makhachev has sights on a move to another division – eyeing a second title victory under the banner of the organization.
Makhachev, the current undisputed lightweight champion, headlined UFC 284 earlier this month in Perth, Australia against featherweight titleholder, Volkanovski, landing a competitive unanimous decision win.
The victory came as Makhachev’s twelfth consecutively at the lightweight limit since a KO loss to Adriano Martins, having previously clinched the vacant lightweight crown with an October submission win over Charles Oliveira at UFC 280.
Weighing up a potential immediate title rematch against New South Wales technician, Volkanovski off the back of his judging win ‘Down Under’, Islam Makhachev also discussed potentially making a division leap in pursuit of a second UFC championship belt.
“I want to test myself at another weight class, because becoming a double champion will go down in history,” Islam Makhachev told Match TV during a recent interview. “I am 100% down for it.”
If Makhachev plots a welterweight division move in pursuit of a second Octagon crown, the American Kickboxing Academy staple would be tasked with toppling either current undisputed titleholder, Leon Edwards, or former champion, Kamaru Usman – whom he is a stablemate with under the Dominance MMA banner, with the pair slated to headline UFC 286 next month.
Earlier this week, Makhachev also took to his official social media in a bid to weigh up his next Octagon walk – with the aforenoted featherweight kingpin, Volkanovski urging him to sign up for an immediate rematch in order to provide fans and spectators another spectacle.
In the immediate aftermath of UFC 284 at the RAC Arena, Volkanovski and Makhachev both appeared to welcome the opportunity to share the Octagon with each other again – with the former offering to travel to Abu Dhabi, UAE this time around in pursuit of gold.
Undisputed UFC featherweight champion, Alexander Volkanovski has called for an immediate title re-run with lightweight division pacesetter, Islam Makhachev – having previously dropped a close, unanimous decision loss to the Russian earlier this month at UFC 284.

Undisputed UFC featherweight champion, Alexander Volkanovski has called for an immediate title re-run with lightweight division pacesetter, Islam Makhachev – having previously dropped a close, unanimous decision loss to the Russian earlier this month at UFC 284.
Volkanovski, the current undisputed featherweight champion, headlined UFC 284 earlier this month in Perth, Australia – taking on Dagestan native, Makhachev for the latter’s undisputed lightweight crown.
Suffering a close, unanimous decision loss – which also came as the New South Wales native’s first under the banner of the UFC, Volkanovski immediately called for a title re-run with Makhachev in the aftermath of the Australia event.
And in the weeks removed from the matchup, Alexander Volkanovski has called for Makhachev to present fans a rematch.
“Let’s run it back and give the people what they want! @MAKHACHEVMMA (Islam Makhachev),” Alexander Volkanovski tweeted.
Enjoying a promotional-perfect run at the featherweight limit prior to his judging loss against Makhachev, Volkanovski most recently defeated former champion, Max Holloway in a unanimous decision win of his own at UFC 276 back in July of last year in the pair’s trilogy title fight.
Expected to return to the featherweight limit ahead of his championship outing against Makhchev earlier this month ‘Down Under’ – Volkanovski made the walk following an interim title fight between Yair Rodriguez and Josh Emmett, with the Mexican striker landing the interim crown with a second round triangle submission stoppage.
As for Makhachev, the American Kickboxing Academy staple managed to land his first successful lightweight title defense with his judging win over Volkanovski – having captured the vacant title in October of last year with a second round arm-triangle submission win over former champion, Charles Oliveira.
In the time since his win at UFC 284, Makhachev has also welcomed a move to the welterweight limit in pursuit of a second Octagon crown.
