Welcome to F4WOnline.com's live coverage of UFC on ESPN+ 65: Volkov vs. Rozenstruik, emanating from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The UFC kicks off a busy month of June, and a busy summer overall with the first of at least twelve straight weekends of UFC action, back at the UFC Apex with a heavyweight main event featuring two veterans.
Seventh-ranked Alexander Volkov and eighth-ranked Jairzinho Rozenstruik both look to get back into the win column in the five-round main event. Volkov is making a quick return after suffering a first-round submission loss to Tom Aspinall in March, while Rozenstruik fights for the first time since September, when he suffered a decision loss to Curtis Blaydes at UFC 266.
In the co-main event, it's a pretty big featherweight bout as Dan Ige looks to rebound from a losing skid when he takes on the undefeated Movsar Evloev. Also on the main card is featherweight action between former TUF winner Michael Trizano and UFC newcomer Lucas Almeida, a light heavyweight bout pitting Alonzo Menifield against newcomer Askar Mozharov, and a strawweight rematch between Felice Herrig and Karolina Kowalkiewicz kicks off the main card.
Follow along with our live coverage of the event beginning at 1 p.m. Eastern time with preliminary action all the way through the main card.
