Nothing so fragile on earth as a "UFC title shot" - Volkov Edition

The only thing the UFC hates more than someone consistently winning decisions is actually saying and sticking to someone getting a title shot. Number 2 and 3 fight in a division? Does the winner face the champ? Depends. My favorite is when a guy is on a win streak and he’s facing a guy with a loss and White has literally said if coming off a loss and winning on fight doesn’t lead to a title shot but for a guy to beat a guy coming off a loss he could still then earn a title shot. Or that Brock Lesnar is fighting for a title which just invalidates any claims as to efforts to keep the belt and getting a crack at is as some sensical, orderly, legitimate process.
