#UFC #ufc284
it's because he cut weight
Good on u Volk! It takes a BIG MAN to accept the decusion, not talk smack, and say that he could have done more to win.
Volkanovski is a living legend in this sport. Definitely in the all time great conversation when it comes to pound for pound king. And one of the biggest reasons is that this guy takes FULL responsibility for his performance and thoroughly pushes himself to the limit. I see him coming back so much stronger in his next fight. One of the most exciting fighters today.
God bless..
Yair will destroy Alex
Where all them Islam fans That said it would be easy
You won that fight I don’t care what the score cards said
98% of these Fighters have no inclination what mixed-martial-arts really entails
I'm the greatest fighter of all time and I'm not even in the octagon I'll fight any fighter in the UFC that has the balls to stand up to me
can hardly hear anything with my volume at 100%
Volks is champion in my eyes, he's. Awesome, what fuckin heart this man has,
Even oliveira couldn't do what volk did, that says it all , volk one of the best ever
Volk won that fight,
they need to run this one again, Islam won because of that body triangle in the 2nd with which he didn't do anything, Volk even outstruck him in that position
give us another fight, late summer or smth
One of the GOATs for sure.
STILL PFP CHAMPION LETS GO RANKING CAME OUT AND HES STILL ON TOP!
I hope Alexander gets to fight Islam again. This was one hell of a match, as expected!
This guy is on the UFC’s “special tucka”.. freak cardio=EPO
Volk is the real winner. Imo he's still p4p champ. Islam did good though. I respect Volk more that's all.
What a frickn legend. Soo glad volk is getting the respect he deserves. He has stayed humble and hungry throughout his career. Can’t wait to see him fight again
I lost my money on this fight but I was os satisfied Volk really could have won this fight if islam was not able to get a hold of him that much he is stronger but islam just had the chance to take him down a couple of ti
FUCK what a deadset legend. Humble, respectful with the heart of a lion. Thank fuck berkeley wasn'tin warillas group when he was on the footy field. Best of luck Alex the Great Gorilla
Undeniable P4P rn. Mackachev dominated all his LW oponents. Volk is a whole other animal.
Aussie Aussie Aussie Champ champ Champ.
islam lost
Big ups for Volk and Izzy taking extreme fights a weight class above. In this day and age that is an extreme task to take on. These dudes are comic book characters.
Idk I had it as a draw but – I guess I can see the loss but it was very close 🤷🏽♂️ idk ufc rules like that anyways
Islam he wasent ready 100% ,but he is a facking Monster
the best of the best
So this is where Volk lost some respect for me, he was offered the chance to give Islam the credit of being the new P4P #1 but he can't accept it. Volk literally said his #1 ranking was up for grabs now he says it's not so cut and dry even though he lost. Volk had nothing to lose and everything to gain since he wouldn't even admit Islam should be the new P4P #1. I don't think Volk can handle defeat very well, he won't admit he lost. If Islam isn't the new #1 then there wasn't any reason for the fight. I say until Volk admits he's not #1 P4P there is no reason for Islam to give him a rematch. The fight was advertised as fighting for the #1 P4P. Volk can't admit he's not the P4P #1. I would like to know how much Volk weighed this fight. I bet he was around 170 during the fight.
I think this loss is going to eat at Volk. He's not going to accept he loss.
Great fight Volk! But we all heard Volk day “I didn’t do enough&I should’ve turned it up before the 5th”
Nuff said you did enough to get a rematch in the future🤙🏽
Ten !!!!!!
Absolute Stud Killer Gorilla
He won and this corruption of cheating people needs to be addressed. He won and We know it!
I was watching and realized Volk was restricting himself from taking any shots at islam in the early rounds. And now I realize he thinks islam is baiting him when he isn’t. Volk wasted several rounds being too careful and it cost him the game. I’m sure a rematch will be in favor of Volk bcs of this
Everyone is talking about Volk but Islam is a beast.
You win to me
