Media Volkanovski Responds To Yair's Callout

kinda weird when guys don't get the marketing / promoting element of the fight game. If you were in his position, it would be in your interest to do the same thing.
 
KZ is coming off a win...
Yeah over Dan Ige after getting dominated by Ortega. Yair beat KZ and his performance against Max was more impressive than anything KZ has ever done. It's a loss yes but a very close fight with Max Holloway. Since losing to Conor nobody has given Max a competitive fight at 145 besides Volkanovski until the Yair fight.

Soooo, how should he reply to play Yair's marketting game? Maybe he should say some hard truths about the guy, make fun of his poor performances and build some heat.... oh wait

There are some universal truths to MMA/combat sports, and one of them is that to get the title shot/climb the ladder, you need to win. A loss, against whomever, detracts from your momentum, while a win spurs it. Volks in on a HUGE winning/defending spree, while Yair lost his most recent fight. KZ is a veteran of the sport, has put in his dues, and regardless of all that, he's a high-ranked opponent who won his last fight. Also, the guy he last lost to . . .got spanked by Volks, so it's not like he's jumping Ortega, who was deserving of his shots.
 
Volk's not wrong. I like Yair, but he should probably keep his mouth shut and try to build a win streak.
 
Yair the clown, tapping his fingers
 
lol yair got the luckiest ko of his life beating zombie. he had already lost on the cards heading into the 5th.

more over the guy is inactive. we can go through mma math all you want. Yair got schooled by edgar who can't even cut it at 135. Zombie took edgar out in 1. Zombie also beat poirier by sub.

best thing on Yair's resume is losing a UD to Max lol.
