Big respect Volks, prayers are with you my brother. Stay healthy and keep up the great videos. Your energy is needed for the next generation of fighters.
I'm calling it right now. I think Roundtree's gonna get slept in a similar manner to Hill. During his last fight, every time Anthony used any footwork, he was able to land hits on Roundtree. Khalil also has a habit of keeping his hands down. Pereira's specialty are his footwork, leg kicks & left hook. Roundtree won't be able to predict Pereira's kicks and he'll try to close the distance, eventually walking into a left hook.
@@CaseyKCRichards It might go into the later rounds but I still think Pereira KOs him the way I predicted above. I could be wrong though. I got the Jiri and Hill predictions right. And I nailed the Makhachev vs DP, DDP vs Izzy, and Belal vs Edwards predictions. But I got Merab vs Sean and the last Usman vs Edwards fight wrong. So I'm not exactly 100% accurate when it comes to these things.
Whoever from Volk's camp reads this - never give in to these losers. Seriously just ban them. They're worse than bots. They're not fans. They're children who need to learn that you can't just pester and tantrum your way to what you want. Clowns.
How can I not already notice that there is an official RUclips channel of the legendary Volkanovski! I've subscribed to your channel right away already even before I start watching your video! You are always a great inspiration!
You know who you sound like? "I love you BITCH. I'm never gonna stop loving you, BITCH" I'm not making fun of ya. I'm a Volk fan too. It's just the way you worded that reminded me of that meme 😂
Respect the grind attitude and providing the world with a prime example of what being a stand up man is all about ! you da man wishing you and your fam good health from Sunny Florida
Granted it was only 3 rounds, but Pereira did have his LHW debut in Salt Lake City, so he’s experienced that altitude. Jan also had him in bad grappling positions for most of that first round. Of course, though- every fight is different.
@@rajyavardhansingh4491 Grappling isn’t the only situation where the altitude matters. I get that Khalil says he wont be shooting, and his UFC stats back it up- but I’m responding to Volk’s overall point about tolerance of/ behavior in the altitude. He noted “especially if they’re grappling” so I replied to that as an aside.
Pereira has also been in Utah at least a week (I think he's been there longer even) and spent some training and running in the mountains that are a higher altitude than where the fight is gonna be. I'm from Utah and if you're coming from a lower altitude and you don't get there at least a week beforehand, you're gonna have a bad night on fight night. Fighting to get oxygen is a real thing and doing that while having an actual fight is horrible.
Pena is an underdog because 1) she hasn't fought in over 2 years, and her last win was almost 3 years ago. 2) She's coming off an injury last year where she broke her ribs. 3) She's fighting at elevation, and Raquel trains out of Denver which is even higher up than Salt Lake City where they're fighting.
@@shaun457 But if you treat that win as a fluke, which it was, the rest of Peña’s career is complete garbage. She was never that good. Amanda quit after a round and a half, then came back a few months later and mauled her
Solid breakdown Volk! Khalil vs Alex Pereira will be a good one! I just feel Alex Pereira’s leg kicks will be the difference maker and get him the win. 👏👏👏👏🏹🇧🇷
Khalil drops his hands more than any other fighter in the division. Khalil is also fighting at altitude, in a 5 round. Khalil said he isn't going to grapple at all. Khalil is 90% offense and 10% defense. If Khalil makes it past the 3rd round i will be shocked
Unless Pereira trips and breaks his left hand in the first 10 seconds Khalil has an extremely slim chance of winning in any way. With that being said I’m going with Khalil via finish within 2 rounds
i got Pereira 1st round KO. similar how he KOd Powell in LFA. when Khalil throws his left straight, he often leaves his right down. similar to Jamahal people that say Khalil or even Pereira is gonna shoot a take down its such a dumb idea to shoot for both of them tbh. mainly because its at altitude and both fighters dont have the best gas tanks historically. maybe Pereira's Gas is better than Rountree's atleast. soo this fight is gonna be a striking match 110%
Alex has been here (SLC) for a few weeks now.Danbury CT (Alex’s new home town) is at around 1000 feet and SLC is at 4200 feet. I don’t see elevation being too big of a concern. From what I’ve read your hemoglobin efficiency and PPO2 is in the 90-98% range with a 3000 foot change. Alex may have noticed something within the first few days of being in SLC but like I said I think he’s been here for a few weeks minimum. Either way gonna be a good fight.
Two years in the ufc , 12 fights, he beat 5 former champions, won 2 different belts in different weight classes , saved ufc 300 ,saved ufc 303 in two weeks notice putting his belt on the line , became superstar , wants to move up to HEAVYWEIGHT and become the first ever 3 division champ in ufc history. And still conquering in the biggest stage of them all ufc .
*Khalil's biggest win is over Anthony Smith who isn't even in the Top 10, and he was slept by Johnny "Spaghetti Legs" Walker. Roundtree barely has a Puncher's Chance in this fight. The skill gap in opponents they have faced is the largest in UFC LHW Chamnpionship history. Poatan wins by KO in Round 1.*
@@chuckles9767pretty unfortunate, johnny walker was a big ‘what if’ in his division, especially a few years ago. But his chin and his fight IQ just falls a bit too short for the higher ranked opponents.
The patience under pressure or fire comes from the smaller ring they use in Glory KB to force the action. When you are tired in Glory you cant just stop throwing or runaway the opp is right in your face.
Pereira by 2nd rd MISSMATCH murder Peña by sub but I’ll go decision because of the 2 years of Aldo by decision Kayla by tko (NASTY ELBOWS) Dolidze by decision
When Alex vs round tree was announced, I didn’t think roundtree shouldn’t get the title shot. The more I watch him…..I’m so excited for this matchup. Styles make fights and these guys both throw bombs, sneaky technique, counter strikers. I don’t think either guy is gonna shoot.
I feel the main event comes down to defence. Pereira stand with his hands kind of low and his chin up in the air. Khalil stand hunched over with his hands up. If he can block and counter effectively he can get it done. But is he going to? Who the hell knows, pereria is a beast
Do you think Stephen Thompson has still got it enough to withstand the onslaught from Joaquin Buckley? I'm thinking this is Stephen's retirement fight sadly.
Did Khalil also arrive 3 weeks in advance like Pereira? I've been to Utah, it's not only the altitude, but the dry air also adds up. If you just Arrive 1 week before, whatever time you last doing anything that requires endurance, cut in a half or 1 third.
Periera vs Roundtree is a good fight, Roundtree best bet is to utilise his speed and counter Alex. Best bet for Alex I think he should make it an MMA fight take him down at least once to have Khalil resetting a lot
Hey editor i noticed ya forgot the "d"on Holland in the description/ time marker. Dunno how many might get sour over a typo lol constructive criticism I guess lol
I think Rountree has the chin to handle Pereira's power, the confidence in himself to be the aggressor and the ring IQ to win in a striking match. Just my two cents.
Volkswagen you should go live! I wanna know If you were in the same weightclass as peirera and Jones do you think you would beat them and what would your gameplan be for each fight
Co-main event, very likely goes the distance. Julianna Peña haven't fought for over 2 years due to injury though.. so I'm leaning more toward Pennington. Pennington only have lost to girls who outstrike her on the feet..so I don't see Peña being able to do that.. also after the 2 years off, it's a tough task. Peña beat Amannda the first fight.. we all know why (did not expected it and gased out). This will be a close grinding fight for sure.
I want Khalil to win. He seems like a cool guy and he's a savage but its really hard to bet against AP. Honestly, wouldnt even put money on that fight. this is MMA after all.
I wanna hear your quick fire multi pick for the NRL grand final? Do the panthers take the 4peat or will storm rain on their parade? wabrick for a double, Edwards first second or third and Melbourne by 1-12
Big respect Volks, prayers are with you my brother. Stay healthy and keep up the great videos. Your energy is needed for the next generation of fighters.
If Khalil pulls out, would you step in on short notice and fight Alex Pereira?

You're forgetting one big reason. It's because most savvy MMA fans realize that her win over Nunes is a pure fluke.
@@DanielDurham121 Lol, a fluke win doesn't make someone an underdog. Pennington has a fluke win over Viera too and got a title shot off it.
@@shaun457 But if you treat that win as a fluke, which it was, the rest of Peña’s career is complete garbage. She was never that good. Amanda quit after a round and a half, then came back a few months later and mauled her

Solid breakdown Volk! Khalil vs Alex Pereira will be a good one! I just feel Alex Pereira’s leg kicks will be the difference maker and get him the win. 👏👏👏👏🏹🇧🇷
hey Volk, i believe the reason Peña is an underdog is because of her lengthy layoff, definitely a risky bet because of that factor.
You're the man Volk.✊
He is the Volk man!❤
Peiera has been at altitude for two weeks so he will not be rattled by the altitude, can't believe there aren't more fighters who did that.
Khalil drops his hands more than any other fighter in the division. Khalil is also fighting at altitude, in a 5 round. Khalil said he isn't going to grapple at all. Khalil is 90% offense and 10% defense. If Khalil makes it past the 3rd round i will be shocked
Unless Pereira trips and breaks his left hand in the first 10 seconds Khalil has an extremely slim chance of winning in any way. With that being said I’m going with Khalil via finish within 2 rounds
Khalil could pull it off. He's dangerous and only takes one on the chin
i love you volk
Volk i love you my man first comment by nepali i need a gift from you my man ❤
i got Pereira 1st round KO. similar how he KOd Powell in LFA. when Khalil throws his left straight, he often leaves his right down. similar to Jamahal
people that say Khalil or even Pereira is gonna shoot a take down its such a dumb idea to shoot for both of them tbh. mainly because its at altitude and both fighters dont have the best gas tanks historically. maybe Pereira's Gas is better than Rountree's atleast. soo this fight is gonna be a striking match 110%
Pereira might get the win within the first minute
Alex’s gas tank is just fine
Alex has been here (SLC) for a few weeks now.Danbury CT (Alex’s new home town) is at around 1000 feet and SLC is at 4200 feet. I don’t see elevation being too big of a concern.

yeah i think so too. Pereira would have to do something really fucking stupid to lose this fight
his loss too Johnny Walker was before Khallil went to Thailand he is far better now

Hey Volk! Ur the goat!!!! I’m guessing ur coming back February in Sydney vs Max Holloway!!!
He fought 2 good kickboxers, Gohkan Saki, and Dustin Jacoby who is a former opponent of Alex.
When Alex vs round tree was announced, I didn’t think roundtree shouldn’t get the title shot. The more I watch him…..I’m so excited for this matchup. Styles make fights and these guys both throw bombs, sneaky technique, counter strikers. I don’t think either guy is gonna shoot.
