Five.

I've got nothing for but respect for Cejudo in the cage. The guy is incredibly talented. He's a warrior. He's a very diverse and mentally tough person who is continually improving.

That said, Volkanovski might be one of the most determined and mentally strong fighters I've ever seen. He willed himself through two locked in submissions against Ortega. He's calculated. Intelligent. He has a team that can help him put together an amazing game plan that he can apply and then switch up mid-fight if it isn't going right (see Max/Volk II rounds 3-5 for proof).

Volk is undoubtedly stronger. He's a better striker. He won't gas. He has a hell of a chin. He can war (miss me with the boring hate and look at the Mendes and Ortega fights) or play tactics with the best of them.

In my eyes, he would put it on Henry like Moraes did early - albeit differently - and he won't gas, fade or wilt mentally and get bullied or shut down.

Henry in my eyes lost to DJ in that second fight. He was being beat down soundly by Moraes before that incredible comeback. He beat an emaciated and borderline sick and delusional TJ.

He would hurt Henry.

That isn't a knock on Henry. That's a testament to Alexander. He truly is great. It's an apt moniker.

Volk has very little to gain from fighting a flyweight/Bantam weight that has been retired for the past two years.

Cejudos last win was dominic cruz. He doesn't deserve to step up to FW and fight volk, and as a fan of volk, I think beating just about any ranked FW would build his legacy more than beating a retired flyweight.
