Volkan Oezdemir may have come up short in his first UFC title shot against Daniel Cormier nearly two years ago, but patient, yet effective, wins over Ilir Latifi and Aleksandar Rakic have him closing in on another crack at the crown, and it’s hard to count him out if he does get a title shot in late-2020.
