I don't want to see a rematch but if anything Max deserves it more than Volka

[NoSmilez]

This is a fucking joke.

Dana has been glazing Jones the whole time. They havent said shit about Jones ducking Aspinall. They treat Aspinall like hes not in the title picture.

Nah the official word is that they hope jones will fight aspinall if he wins vs stipe. I guarantee the claims of ducking will happen if Jon retires.

Underdog Volk is one scary dude. He'll be absolutely loving the way he's being given no chance.

Meh... I like Max at 155

He'd need a couple of wins to earn the privilege of getting finished by Islam.

 

[El Fernas]

No need for the time being, if Volk wants to get taken out again and potentially ending his career so be it, not need for this one either, Lopes vs Topuria is THE fight to make.

He'll be absolutely loving the way he's being given no chance.

He loved the "old man Volk" thing, then got put to sleep.

No Dana and the UFC owe him. He'll be up next

Volkanovski was put out cold in the second round and he didn't do much to ilia

While Max actually had his moments and he was hurting ilia at some points, he was winning the fight so far imo, also it was a tko, not a KO

He did better than Volka who is coming off of 2 knockout losses now and if their whole point for their rematch is his title reign, Max had a previous better title reign

I dont think any of them should get a rematch right now, there are other interesting contenders and fun match ups for ilia such as Lopes, Yair, Sterling, etc

If rematches were granted solely on who did better in the first fight, then sure. Max was more competitive against Topuria than Volk was.
But the fact is, Max has now lost 4 straight featherweight title fights. Dude shouldn't be sniffing a title shot at fw for a while.
I know no one wants to hear that, but:

Max didn't win a single round on the judge's scorecards -- Volk did. Max wasn't 6-0 in FW title fights leading up to the topuria fight, Volk was.

 

[Anewt]

Volk took more rounds on the judges score cards vs top than max btw

EVen though it was a round lol

 

[tat2man5k]

Neither of them deserve a rematch. Lopes should be next.

Agreed -- 2-3 wins
