alex knows "was about to start working everything" ie I forgot I was supposed to be working take downs and not striking this dude
Volk murdered Mendes. From what I remember Mendes arguably beat Aldo in the rematchOkay bud, didn’t Volk nearly get slumped by the remains of semi retired Mendes?
Volk got what was coming to him, an actual wrestler with elite athleticism. He was outmatched.
There were a lot of things working against volk here, but he made his bed so now he has to lay in it, and I say that as a huge volk fan. That right hand was perfect and Ilia did a good job to extend his combo and find that shot. Props to the new champ.the islam high kick was too much, the return was too much. i dont think volk ever gets it back now. it's all over.
Wouldn't have matteredWhy did he have to take the fuckin Islam fight on short notice...
after you get system restarted like that, twice in less than a year, you need to take a massive break. hopefully he does just that.There were a lot of things working against volk here, but he made his bed so now he has to lay in it, and I say that as a huge volk fan.

I don't know what is next for Volk, but hopefully he takes some real time off for once before deciding what to do.
13 of Ilia's 15 wins have been finishes. Josh is lucky to not get finished but he caught a 50-42 beatdown. Conversely, Bryce Mitchell and Ryan Hall were like 25-1 when they fought Ilia and had never been finished until they fought Ilia. With this Volk win now people can't say he hasn't fought anyone good.lol… but but, Yair finished him in 2 rounds!!?!??
Legacy? He’s already been champion. These losses don’t erase his other wins or belts. JesusThat was big for Volk's legacy unfortunately. He really needed that win. Unfortunately, the stats don't favor guys in their late 30s fighting guys in their 20s.
Volk is still an all time great FW but he could have been THE all time great FW if he won that fight.
Dude was a moron the entire Rob vs Paulo fightJoe Rugan is nuts. Total hypejob.
