Twitter reacts to Alexander Volkanovski’s destructive title defense vs. Yair Rodriguez at UFC 290

Alexander Volkanovski showed he’s still top of the heap in the featherweight division on Saturday when he defended the strap against Yair Rodriguez in the UFC 290 headliner.

After suffering his first octagon loss to Islam Makhachev in a lightweight title bout in February, Volkanovski (26-2 MMA, 13-1 UFC) returned to his proper weight and turned back interim titleholder Rodriguez (15-4 MMA, 10-3 UFC) by fourth-round TKO in the International Fight Week main event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Check below for the top Twitter reactions to Volkanovski’s title defense against Rodriguez at UFC 290.
