He's proven himself to be the best grinder right now at 145. Max would be favoured at this point, but Volkanovski has the potential to beat him.

I can see it. The guy is a monster.
His only loss is to a legit WW.

Watch the Jeremy Kennedy fight, Kennedy was undefeated at the time including 3-0 in the UFC
Also ruined Elkins epic win streak

I'll check him out. Anything to look out for? Anything he's great at specifically? Thanks for taking the time.

Mendes is a real tough matchup for Volkanovski
He's basically going up against a more experienced and technical version of himself
If he can win that fight, he can beat anyone although I think Max is also a tough matchup for him with that lateral movement, length and chin

Very good wrestling and disgusting GNP. Also has good power and very good boxing
I would def say his wrestling is his strongest point

were going to find out soon. imo no, there is a massive difference in beating the bottom 15 or lower top 10 guys over the top 5 guys. if he beats chad mendes then yes his ceiling is very high, chad is no joke for any 145 guy
