I think Volk is one of the most incredible natural fighters we've ever seen. His latent strength and speed and his ability to quickly learn complex technical skillsets like footwork-headmovement-punch combinations and takedown defence is really incredible.
That said, he is at the end of the line for FW. 35 is ancient. He knows he has another couple of years, at best, before he's a shell of his former greatness. I can't say I blame him for trying to rush it. He's gotta take some gambles. Hopefully he can stay safe through training and then if he gets a quick finish, he can have another fight in short order and add to his legacy. If not that, if he plays it safe and takes months off to recover, he could be done as a top fighter.
