2....He'll blow his wad in the first. He has the cardio of a 75 year old man who smokes 5 packs of cigarettes a day.I would say in the first 3 minutes of rd 1. TKO via body kicks. Easy win for Volkov.
Hardy have 50lbs advantage and Volkov is coming back after over 1 year lay off after brutal KO loss to Black Beast.
At the weigh ins Greg Hardy (265) vs. Alexander Volkov (251) so it's 14lbs not 50lbs and it's not like Hardy is ripped at 265 he's soft and carries a fair bit of fat on him.
I don't disagree with the rest of your post however. Hardy could win early but the longer it goes the less chance he has.
