Alexander Volkanovski burst into the song when he spotted Diego Lopes for their featherweight title fight next month.
The legendary former featherweight champion Volkanovski wants to make another point to the belt after losing his title to Ilia Topuria in a brutal way last year. The defeat came after he had not failed in two attempts in lightweight gold against the record -breaking Islam Makhachev.
And his run back to the gold starts at UFC 314 when he stands opposite Lopes in Miami for the title that Topuria has left for the pursuit of lightweight glory. The couple came against the head in Las Vegas for the first time tonight and it became interesting on the microphone.
Alexander Volkanovski sings Secodhand Serenade at UFC 314 press conference
Although Alexander Volkanovski is not necessarily known for his trash, he is always able to process the chatter on pre-combat conferences. Tonight in Las Vegas was no different when he went to the microphone to fight his rival Diego Lopes for their fight.
He noted that Lopes's hairstyle made him look like the singer from an emo band from the mid -2000s. But perhaps the most shameful moment came when he burst 'Fall for you' in second -hand Serenade's renowned meme.
The couple seemed to laugh at the idea, while the crowd of Las Vegas and other hunters seemed to enjoy the performance on stage. It is still to be seen whether his singing is just as good as his once legendary fighting.
Fans impressed by the singing voice of Alexander Volkanovski
Volkanovski's vocal effort was quickly cut and shared on social media, with many fans who notice that he was not exactly out of the key. Barrestool Sports 'Spinnin' Backfist Podcast shared the clip with a caption with the text: “The Man Can Sing!”

It seemed that many viewers agreed with the idea, with comments that were generally impressed by his performance. “People could have a second career,” wrote one, while the other added that the UFC legend “can sing, cook and fight.”
A number of viewers on the official tweet of the UFC were also full of praise, writing “people singing good digow” and “why was that actually good hollow up.” Not everyone was so enthusiastic, but it was generally a positive response.
