Makhachev won 1, 2 and 4. He oustruck Volkanovski and did more damage

{<doc}
he legit out struck volk, wobblied him twice, cut him several times, took him down more, attempted more submissions.
some of yall mouth breathers just need to stick to bare knuckle boxing.
Islam momentarily rocked Volk which Volk recovered quickly from and had no lasting effect. Islam was legit hurt.
 
Believe what you like lad but Volk 3 and 5, 2nd was close but fair enough giving that to Islam, acting like Volk wasn't in those rounds is just being asinine so with that said have a good rest of your day.

I didn't say Volk was BLOWN away in those rounds. They were fairly competitive. But he also lost them, and clearly. Islam pushed the grappling aggression, and landed the better shots.
 
Islam fought as a small LHW against a small WW.

not impressed. The biggest weight bully since con man mc fucker.
 
lol. Islam wobbled Volk several times. Volk never had Islam in trouble.

Islam won rounds, only lost 1 because he gassed out in the end.

Volk wobbled him in the 1st and 5th what were you watching?
 
Scoring since 2018 is based on damage and Volkanovski didn't do any damage until the 5th. He had a good 3rd round, and had some control time in the 5th, but that doesn't win a fight, and the result reflected that.

iu
Right on
 
You watched a great fight between two fighters two may very well be in the ATG discussion I’m their divisions, and this is your takeaway?

SMDH
 
Why do fans gotta be like this. It was a great close fight. Both had their moments and displayed mma at the absolute highest level. Islam won by a thin margin but he won. Volk had islam hurt and surviving in the 5th. With the scoring criteria, the judges had it right tonight. Volks stock did not go down at all, in fact, his stock went up.

Some people weren’t adequately socialized as children.
 
3 and 5 Volk, rest Islam. 2nd was close though I'd need to re-watch but gave it to Islam regardless. 49-46 is a bad score 50-45 is someone brand new to MMA.

Okay lets take round 5

Islam made Alex bleed, dropped him, kneed him, for 4 minutes plus, losing the last 40 seconds doesn't mean you won the whole round

No he didn't. Watch the replay. In rd1 Islam tripped when moving back.

In RD5 he was shooting for a TD and got punched in the face which screwed up his entrance. At no point was his body wobbly or showing he was hurt though.

You scored the 5th for Islam? Islam had less sig strikes in that round, no success with the takedowns, got dropped himself and was getting ground and pounded the last minute and was on the defensive beforehand. That was clearly Volk's round. Even Cleary who must be related to Cecil Peoples scored it his way.

no, i said that was the only won i am 50/50 on because Alex did really well, but you could argue he still lost
 
Yes sir you are 100% right.
Alex is a beast and great human but islam is better
 
no, i said that was the only won i am 50/50 on because Alex did really well, but you could argue he still lost
No you really can't, find anyone who gave Volk the fifth including people in Islams camp and they are either a moron or as blind as Stevie Wonder.

ok, and islam still won. i really dont know why some of yall cant seem to grasp this. Volk had an amazing final minute of round 5....that doesnt mean he won the fight. some of yall are straight up weirdos
 
Islam very lucky for Volk's loss of concentration in round 4 which lead to his dominant position.

Islam's face was an absolute mess. Finally someone showed that these guys aren't invincible.

Volk still p4p king
Stats say you are wrong on Monday. Cry more.
 
You probably would've been bumping that thread hard if I was wrong, no? And like hundreds of others. Wonder why it's quiet?

Yeah, exactly.
Ironic because Volk took down max in the last rounds in the second match and ended up coming back for the win.

lol
