As he put it on <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/alex-volkanovski\/bjpenn-com-radio-ep-71-alexander-volkanovski-stevie-ray-david-teymur-james-vick\/\">a recent episode of BJ Penn Radio<\/a>, he&#8217;s yet to lose a round in the Octagon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI haven\u2019t lost a round in the UFC,\u201d he <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/exclusive-interviews\/exclusive-ufc-221-winner-alex-volkanovski-explains-post-fight-callout-andre-fili-1\/\">said<\/a>. \u201cI literally have not lost a round. A lot of the rounds that I won you could say have been the 10-8 rounds as well. 50 percent of my rounds are 10-8 rounds so, [I\u2019m] completely dominating. I\u2019m barely copping any damage in any of my fights. I\u2019m handing out some pretty good beatings, you know what I mean? So they need to give me some ranked opponent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The time has come for Alex Volkanovski to be rewarded with a top-15 opponent, and I think Jury, Bektic and Choi would make great measuring sticks for him.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-271492\" src=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dominick-Reyes.png\" alt=\"Dominick Reyes\" width=\"696\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dominick-Reyes.png 696w, https:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dominick-Reyes-300x172.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Fighter: <\/strong>Dominick Reyes<\/p>\n<p><strong>Division: <\/strong>Light Heavyweight<\/p>\n<p><strong>Record: <\/strong>8-0 Overall, 2-0 UFC<\/p>\n<p><strong>Matchup Suggestions:\u00a0<\/strong>Gian Villante,\u00a0Gadzhimurad Antigulov, Corey Anderson<\/p>\n<p>Dominick Reyes&#8217;s nickname is &#8220;The Devastator,&#8221; and he&#8217;s fought accordingly from the moment his career began, finishing all but one of his eight victims.
