Getting breakfowns from alex is like paying a coach to help you understand all those details that are very hard to understand as a beginner. Man i love this era where the best of the world have youtube channels and are explaining a lot of high level things. Its unreal❤
really hoping dustin shines bright on the night and shows he got that dog in him one more time, such a decorated fighter in the sport just missing that lightweight title to finish his career on a high
I SAW THE LIFE INSIDE YOUR EYES SO SHINE BRIGHT, TONIGHT, YOU AND I WE’RE BEAUTIFUL LIKE DIAMONDS IN THE SKY EYE TO EYE, SO ALIVE WE’RE BEAUTIFUL LIKE DIAMONDS IN THE SKY 💎
Deeper 100%. Possibly highest iq in the fight game and it comes through when you talk. I could listen to this for hours. Actually we need a podcast bro.
Deep , we want to know what you think about the whole event , as one of the only People in the world with your expirience, your perspective is unique and really educational
lol Illia would fucking mop Dustin what are u talking about? Where do u feel like Dustin could beat Illia? Less power less speed less wrestling less jui jitsu less chin. Illia is an all time level talent
For some reason I feel like Poirier will knock him out. Awakenbeerus also posted the script and placed 1,000,000 on him. The guy is never wrong. If it plays out like that this time that would be EPIC!!!
That's awesome, no music, no jokes, no garbage, just knowledge. I really enjoyed hearing out the thought process and analysis from one of the best fighters ever about this UFC 302 event. I oddly felt very at peace watching this video.
don’t know if that’s possible for costa. also don’t know if it’s smart for sean. sean wins fights by defense and counter striking. if he starts throwing first and putting pressure on costa he might get caught (not saying costa is super powerful but anything can happen when somebody lands cleanly)
@@thefacelessquestion3333 no more usada? Not sure what point you think you're making. They went straight to DFSI. They are still randomly tested for the exact same substances (the wada banned substance list). Do fans really think no usada means no testing? 😂😂😂 Usada is just an anti-doping agency, they just didn't renew their contract with them and are under contract with DFSI now (who does SEVERAL other professional sports leagues drug testing). I have no idea why fans say "no usada now" like it actually means something. All ufc fighters are still being tested on a regular basis. Did you not see Jones in the news just a few weeks ago for "threatening an agent" during a random drug test. Didn't you see Rountree just get suspended for DHEA (the same OTC substance Bobby Green popped for under USADA)? Nothing has changed but the agency collecting the samples.
This was such a sharp and detailed technical breakdown !! One of the most relevant prediction contents out there, nothing quite surprising from one of the all time greats. See you soon back where you belong champ !!
You break down things so well, almost showing us how you see things in your fight camp. Most real honest analyst in the game. I really hope you get Topuria at 145 or Max at 155 next.
Volk Love the break down of the fights the longer you dug deep you into your memory of past fights the more I listened Looking forward to more off this.
@@nobody8739it aint about sean he is talking about costa, he just lost to whittaker so it doesnt makes sense to let him fight a higher ranked opponent then the huy he lost to. I jope he gets destroyed by sean for 5 rounds and gets cuts from the ufc
I’m fan of you volk. From singapore. Love how you give the breakdown with in-depth technical details and fight experience. It much different than the usual type of fight breakdowns. 💯💯💯
Volk is the only reason people think there's a slight possibility for Poirier to survive lol, im sure after this fight people will respect Volk even more for being the only one who kade Islam look human.
You picked those three fight perfect. Good call champ. This is the first ufc i have watched since your last fight. I had to take a break from ufc. Glad to see u in good energy
Volk, you’ve always been my favorite fighter. As a fight fan, this is amazing. You’re one of the best to ever do it! There is literally no other person I’d rather hear do an in-depth breakdown on MMA fights.
it is more about being in the southpaw stance allows your left hip to generate more power in your left hand regardless of what your dominant hand really is
Both of these fighter’s Islam & Dustin are my favourite fighter’s, I really enjoy watching there fights but I don’t care who win’s the belt, all I want a banger skill full fight with crazy sequences , and yeah may the best man wins.
Such a good and detailed breakdown! One of my favorite fighters both for physical skill and for the understanding of the game! This was great, thank you!
Volk is respectful to everyone, yes, but I sense he truly and absolutely considers Islam an incredible fighter. This is not the first interview where he has mentioned Islam is calculating and that he is as good, if not better, than advertised. Coming from a truly elite fighter, that is exceptionally high praise. I interpret what Volk says to mean that all fighters prepare to capitalize on openings or mistakes, but with Islam there are none.
Solid breakdown Volk! Islam Makachev vs Dustin Poirier is going to be an amazing match up. I feel It comes down to Dustin’s punching and boxing and Islam’s wrestling and submission game. Should be a good one.😊
Islam has tremendous knockout power. Remember he trains with Cain, who’s a HW. He gives Cain an extremely hard time in training. Go watch Cains video about Islam. I personally think he will submit Dustin. He won’t want you to hurt him on his retirement fight. Islam loves and respects Dustin.
Volka will retrain Topuria. Even islam makachev and Max said Volka should have rested after he was knocked out. and they think that may be the cause of defeat.They said it wasn't Volka's performance that we knew. Everyone knows it. That's why everyone have questions about topuria, who was almost knocked down by jai huburts head kick. volk will back again like Adesanya's revenge to pereira. this is just part of movie. just mark his word. lets go.
volk looked good in the ilia fight he was fast and turned on never in volks career does he take that right hand, to beat ilia volk has to be perfect for 25 minutes he cant afford to be tagged clean or he will go out dont be delusional ilia has always been the style to beat volk, volk backs up with his chin in the air and he gets away with it against taller fighters cause their punches dont catch him right on the chin ilia being around the same height will catch him right on the chin which we saw happen beating ilia is a uphill fight for volk and i dont see a path to victory for him
I say this out of love with volk being my favorite fighter in the world hands down, this is just delusional cope man. Ilia is a nightmare matchup for volk and it’s looking like his best days are behind him now he’s gonna be 36 if they have this rematch…it doesn’t mean we can’t see more fun fights from volk but if you’re a real volk fan you don’t want the rematch because Ilia is going to find a home for that right hand and KO volk again man. let’s just get a couple legacy fights for him like a bout with Aljo and let volk ride off into the sunset because my heart cannot take another night where volk gets flatlined 😢
@@WeAreGhuraba emmet has a better chin then volk and he didnt get hit as clean the right hand ilia put on volk was sqaure on his chin when volk had his chin in the air emmet was getting caught with his chin tucked and the shots didnt land directly on his chin
If you watch Islam's training camp for this fight on his channel you'll realise when he shoots, he's already dipping the head in the opposite direction, for a southpaw. And they have the nerve to say he's underestimating Dustin... well I hard disagree. I really want that Poirier win though for the culture.
Ilia didnt catch you. He hunted you down and waited till you gave him an oppening. Your one of my favorite fighters but you saying he catched you is ridicoulous
he is still the number 1 contender though, he has to act as if he can beat ilia because otheriwse when he gets the shot he'll have already admitted ilia is better then him, use your head smh

Who’s here after the fight 🤯 spot on
I’m glad you’re doing alright. You’re one of the goats of the sport and I can’t wait to see you back in there
He should'nt hold back on going technical. I was really enjoying the breakdowns, the he kinda pulled back
I loved watching Ilia turn him into a motionless lump
he'll get knocked out again. he's done
is he? i thought he was supposed to do no fight training for half a year due to his head injury
@@terrycruise-zd5tw still, as soon as he gets back he'll get knocked out again. 1. his confidence is gone. 2. everybody knows that + his chin is also gone.

Why he could not do that to himself.
The Dagestini will win!
dude, alex is a special person. defeating him takes something special
@@Shawenxyou know those are two different things, right smarty pants?
135lb Volk
I believe Islam's "easy" victory over Dustin will show how great Volk's performance was. Volk made Islam look normal.
really hoping dustin shines bright on the night and shows he got that dog in him one more time, such a decorated fighter in the sport just missing that lightweight title to finish his career on a high
Not gonna be easy by any means. Mark my fuckin words

You're the man Volk. One of the best fighters ever but more importantly a family man and a example of a good honest man for your children. Respect.
Hey Volk, we love ya
We do brother ❤ from Denmark
We really do!

Volk is a tremendously thoughtful analyst of the fight game. He has a very bright future in the content space. Keep up the great work!
Best breakdown on two south paw fighters and these subtle technical changes in perhaps 1/3 second would change the result of the game!!
Fun fact: Volk has a longer reach than paulo costa
That's awesome, no music, no jokes, no garbage, just knowledge. I really enjoyed hearing out the thought process and analysis from one of the best fighters ever about this UFC 302 event. I oddly felt very at peace watching this video.
You're the man Volkanovski!
Costa and Sean both are going to be more explosive than their previous fights.
don’t know if that’s possible for costa. also don’t know if it’s smart for sean. sean wins fights by defense and counter striking. if he starts throwing first and putting pressure on costa he might get caught (not saying costa is super powerful but anything can happen when somebody lands cleanly)
More explosive for Costa? We talking grenade here...but no more USADA too sooo
Sean will defend for 5 rounds, again.

The best breakdown we could get… no fighter knows Islams strengths more then volk at this point… this was great! Thank for the time and effort!!!💪🏼🙏🏼
as an hardcore islam fan, volk is one of my favorite persons and fighter THE GREAT
Hardcore fan? Wtf does it mean lol. Is it bandwagoner level or something much higher?
Watching Alex also helps me learn more myself, I enjoy listening to his commentary over fights, reactions also a plus lol. Keep it up Alex!
Cheers for the breakdown champ!
Pretty sure the Co-Main Strickland vs Costa is 5 rounds. Not sure why they made it 5 rounds but that favours Strickland
Probably cuz it's a title contender fight
@@Sicboyz-ku2wr Paulo just lost against Whittaker, how could this be seen as a title contender fight?
I think it was relatively short notice and Strickland wanted it 5 rounds, Paulo said yes.
@@Viktor_Andonoski sean alone makes it a title contender fight because he just lost the belt by split decision

Thanks champ, fascinating breakdown
Its great. Your rambling is on point, very informative & entertaining.

theres only one king , one goat . that is volk.

Nahh he's a legend but as you said if there's only one goat than he's far from it

You also need the Greek flag on there
Wait, is Volkanovski Macedonian?
@@ishwar5936his Dad is
@@spreiik that is cool, I did not know that
Change the first flag and put the greek
Correction: Volk you are right about Dustin fighting southpaw but Dustin is actually right handed so his power side is his right.
Correction he has power in both hands
Yeah you can train both bud. If you train your non dominant hand enough you learn the technique followed by power.
Correction: Costa vs Strickland is 5 rounds
Is that you DC
it is more about being in the southpaw stance allows your left hip to generate more power in your left hand regardless of what your dominant hand really is
good to see you keepin' active champ! couldn't have a more shining example of an Aussie fighter, keep on Volk! ❤
