Alexander Volkanovski previews title fight vs Movsar Evloev: “This will be my best performance yet"

Champ, I appreciate your time. You're a busy guy, you're a world champion, you're a husband, a father, and now a movie star. Before we even talk about the title defense, I need to know about the filming of Street Fighter, what that was like for you, and and what you're anticipating of this movie coming out.

Can't wait. >> Were you more nervous for that, for like learning lines and making sure you got stuff right, than you were for a fight? Or how did those nerves kind of equate?

remembering exact lines. I'm terrible with that, you know, probably comes with the sport. Um but it's but when you when you get to be yourself and act and all that stuff, see you know, I really enjoy it. I I like I I don't mind being in front of the camera. And yeah, I'm quite comfortable up
