Former UFC featherweight champ Alexander Volkanovski has had to learn how to enjoy the process as much as the result of a fight.

Chael Sonnen and Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone struggled to enjoy fighting in the cage, but also struggled to get himself to like any of it.

UFC veteran Alex Volkanovski is looking to reclaim the 145-pound featherweight title he lost to Ilia Topuria in 2024 .

The 36-year-old says he'd kept himself so busy as a champion that he never gave himself a chance to enjoy the fruits of his labor.

At age 36 , he says he feels like he knows what to make of this hectic life.
