Islam vs. Volkanovski - Who won?

[Flboycanscrap2]

Volk won under Pride Rules

 

[Anewt]

Being a backpack for a round made the difference. Islam's showed he's mortal.

But I do think he got the win

If you don't do literally anything with "controlling" then it should mean jack shit, Alex did more damage, both on the feet AND the ground.

3+ minutes of attempting literal hugging since zero damage done <<< damage, scrambles, and actually being aggressive.

Volk should have won imo

Islam and I wanted Volk so bad. I just couldn’t find 3 rounds for Volk. Great performance though.

 

[Blazmo]

Lol judges gave a pity decision to the Russian because their fanbase always kicks up an unholy shitstorm when a close decision doesn't go their boy's way. I had it going either way but 49-46 is fucked.

Volk didn't win, but he didn't get beat.

If you thought Volk won that fight, then you are either blind, or seriously biased.

 

[RicardinhoPT]

48-47 Islam but it was a close fight, Volk showed why he's so great

 

[Sinthesized]

Volk did well. But Islam won. Doesn’t matter about popularity

 

[Pechan]

3-2 Volk, disgusting robery.

 

[BonesWinckleJones]

too many bots voting for islam,we know we won

 

[King in the North]

Give me the option for a draw god dammit

 

[Paul E Gensinger]

Islam 100%. Anyone who says otherwise is a moron kidding themselves. But that being said, Volk is amazing.

[KAZSoliloquy]

islam got it imo great fight but i don’t see how you could give it to volk

 

[BatemanTX]

The one on top beating the crap out of the panic hugger

Amen.

 

[JustBleed69]

48-47 Volk but it was close

 

[MDoza]

Without rounds, Makhachev would have been on his back for hours

 

[Viking Power]

Volk won. Fun fight though.

 

[kingmob6]

Islam clearly won. There is no dispute whatsoever. Islam outstruck him and outgrappled him. Volk was valient. Loved it.

 

[djason1988]

Islam won the decision but Volk won the fight.

My thoughts exactly. Islam "won" by the unified ruleset, but Volk was the alpha in there. More aggressive, tougher, more powerful, and every bit as skilled. The last round, Islam just wanted it to end. Volk was ready to keep hammering him

 

[ElLunico]

3-2 Islam and I was rooting for Volk. The threat of a TD makes Islam very difficult to deal with on the feet.. Volk couldn't pull the trigger

This is what happens when fighters focus so much on stopping an opponents strength is they seem to not work on their offense as much
