The rookie
2019 Topps UFC Knockout #87
Volkanovski's first licensed trading card, released May 8, 2019 (Cardboard Connection, TCDB), about seven months before he took the featherweight title from Max Holloway at UFC 245. It is the only RC-flagged card TCDB lists for him.
His 2021 Panini Prizm base is sometimes sold as a rookie. The 2019 Chrome insert is sometimes sold as a 'Chrome rookie', but he has no 2019 Chrome base card.
