Alexander Volkanovski Reveals His Honest Thoughts on Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson’s “Rock Toast” Gesture at UFC 273

Cheat meals are a must. Especially for champs like Alexander Volkanovski, who put in the work, day in and day out, to become one of the greatest in the world of MMA, surely deserve it a lot more. After an incredible performance at UFC 273, the Australian featherweight finally deserved a break from all the clean eating. 

One of the celebrities’ who most publicized cheat meals is Hollywood Superstar and former WWE superstar Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson with his ‘Rock Toast.’ The recipe has been going viral, given Johnson’s social media reach.

Moreover, the actor believes in a more “Don’t cheat yourself, treat yourself” approach. This allows him to have high-calorie mouth-watering foods while keeping them borderline healthy and sustainable.

An avid follower of the UFC, The Rock is acquainted with various UFC superstars, and Volkanovski happens to be one of them. The actor sent the champ his cheat meal after his win at UFC 273, which the champ thoroughly enjoyed.

In an interview with Ariel Helwani, talking about how good and fluffy the meal was, this is what the Volkanovski had to say. 

“It does, man. Like you’re cuttin it and just goes [beckoning a cutting sound].” Talking about how he got the meal, he continued, “The guys hooked it up and he [The Rock] gave us a whole box full like…You just heat it up.” When Ariel Helwani asked for an honest opinion on how it tasted, Volkanovski stated, “Obviously, if it was bad, I would’ve said it was bad. But yeah, it was good.”

Fans speculate that if Volkanovski stays on his stellar trajectory, he might even dethrone Kamaru Usman‘s position, who currently sits at #1 in the UFC pound-for-pound rankings. With Usman’s 5 world title defenses, Volkanovski is getting closer to dethroning ‘The Nigerian Nightmare.’ However, it is easier said than done.
