Guys, I don't want to toot my own my horn but I did expect Islam to finish Volk early. Still, that head kick was very impressive.
BUT....
As I have stated before in regards to Leon (https://forums.sherdog.com/threads/will-leon-fighting-usman-consecutively-play-against-him.4308820/), I worry about Islam in his next fight. I don't care which opponent it is. It could be, Gaethje, Gamrot, Dariush, Arman or Chandler (wishful thinking but I'd love to see it), I think Islam will either lose or take unnecessary damage that will really put a restraint on how dominant he can be as a champion.
I don't like fighters coming off two or more consecutive fights against the same opponent. I believe they get too used to the weaknesses of that opponent. Anyone else share this sentiment?
