UFC 220: Volkan Oezdemir training Jiu-Jitsu with Mario Sperry

Volkan Oezdemir Training Jiu-Jitsu with Mario Sperry

Only days from the biggest fight of his life. Light heavyweight contender Volkan Oezdemir has been putting in Overtime for his bout against Daniel Cormier. Which will take place on January 20th, 2018 in Boston for UFC 220 for the 205lb Championship of the world.

Oezdemir is a fighter not many saw coming. Discounted by some on his way to challenging for the belt. IN the short space of six months. He racked up three wins inside the UFC octagon against Ovince St Preux, Misha Chirkunov. And at the time many people’s number one contender Jimi Manuwa. Who he made short work of with a stoppage inside the first minute of the first round.

Now Volkan finds himself on the cusp of the biggest fight of his career. Against one of the p4p greatest fighters in the sport. Who, it should be added, went to social media to ask fans who they believed should be next in line.

Oezdemir will be just one year and two weeks in the UFC when he takes on Cormier for the much-coveted title. Formerly heal by another one of the sports greats in Jon Jones. Can the Swiss Turk do what so many others, apart from Jones, have failed to do?

It’s a huge test and one we will be watching come January 20th, 2018, live from the TD Garden in Boston at UFC 220.

Stay tuned for more of this training camp as I release more content.
