Movsar Evloev seems to be again passed on for the next featherweight title option from Dana White and the UFC.
When Alexander Volkanovski Diego Lopes beat UFC 314 in a vintage display to regain the title of 145 pounds, many were quickly on a man like his likely next opponent.
But despite the winning form of EVLOEV, calls from fans to give him a long -term shot, and Volkanovski's own preference of the opponent, the promotion probably seems to go on a different path.
The top candidate recently explained so much, with Evloev revealed that he has accepted another fight, of which bloody elbow sources say it will be a five-round co-main event against newcomer Aaron Pico on UFC Abu Dhabi on July 26.
It is safe to say that the Russian is frustrated and that he does not work out to let his employers know.

Movsar Evloev tells Dana White that he will not be 'refused' if he beats another competition
Confirmation that the undefeated Run of EVLOEV in the UFC is not rewarded has spoken of a broad controversial rematch between Volkanovski and Yair Rodriguez.
If that flourishes, the #4-ranking competitor is insisting that he will challenge the winner as soon as he adds a victory to his streak.
Evloev is stuck there, as he has shown by White strongly telling him that he will no longer be “refused”.
“I told the UFC that I will fight against everyone they want and inshaallah after I win, I can no longer be refused @danawhite,” he wrote on X.

Movsar Evloev is on the fourth longest winning series in the history of UFC Vederweight
It is largely unheard of hunters to gather the kind of record that Evloev has without competing for UFC Gold.
Since he came to the promotion in 2019 after a dominant title run under the M-1 Global Banner, the Russian striking profits of nine straight victories has achieved, making him the first to do this in the UFC.
Die Run includes victories over top candidates in Arnold Allen and Diego Lopes, as well as a former champion in Aljamain Sterling.
But getting bound for the fourth longest profit streak in the history of UFC Vederweight has not been enough for EVLOEV.

One column in particular on the EVLOEV record seems to have damaged its stock with the UFC Higher UPS.
The lack of an interruption of the winning run of the Russian is often pointed out on the obstacle on his journey to the title, and with that he could look to make an increased effort to complete things in the distance next time.
