What's 14 feet tall, has 4 thumbs, and wants a UFC fight in Rotterdam?

If all goes to plan, the UFC’s upcoming event in the Netherlands could have a big (figuratively and literally) heavyweight fight.

Towering contenders Stefan Struve and Alexander Volkov – who stand nearly 14 feet tall if stacked atop one another – have agreed to a matchup. Now, they just need UFC matchmakers to oblige.

Struve (28-8 MMA, 12-6 UFC), who’s an honorable mention in the USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA heavyweight rankings, first proposed a bout with former Bellator champ Volkov (28-6 MMA, 2-0 UFC). It appears the Russian vet, who’s ranked No. 13, is game for a matchup at the Sept. 2 UFC Fight Night event, which streams on UFC Fight Night from Ahoy Rotterdam in the port city of Rotterdam (via Twitter):

No fights are currently set for the September card, but Struve, a 29-year-old Dutchman, could help draw local fans.

Struve, a 7-footer and the tallest fighter on the UFC roster, returned from a near-two-year layoff in late 2014 following treatment of a heart condition. He’s currently on a 3-1 run that includes recent stoppage wins over Antonio Silva, which earned a “Performance of the Night” award, and Daniel Omielanczuk.

Even before today’s response to Volkov, Struve had been pushing for the fight  – repeatedly (via Twitter):

Volkov, meanwhile, had a long run with Bellator, where he won a belt in 2012. The 6-7 fighter then signed with M-1, where he claimed and defended the heavyweight title, before joining the UFC roster in 2016. The 28-year-old has since earned decision wins over Timothy Johnson and Roy Nelson to push his current overall winning streak to four.
