agreed, but speaking of Russian podcasts Lex needs to do the Putin interview yesterday, he's been teasing it for years & especially after the Ukraine war outbreak last year. I think he's been told by numerous people not to do it but dialogue with western media is desperately needed to help bring peace, Lex is a great interlocutor being both American & Russian.
@@bboybreezi2417 lol volk was out-strike almost every round. Everyone was just impressed how volk kept getting back up rest he didn’t do much. Watch the fight again ya causal
I like Craig Jones, but he's not being objective here at all - obviously. To try to make the case that Makhachev with a fully locked in body triangle (one of the most dominant positions in the sport) for a long stretch and continuous submission attempts should result in a lost because of a few pitty-patty strikes from Volk is pretty laughable. I get it though, he's Volks boy so he's grasping at straws to make something happen. Can't wait for the rematch though, Volk and Islam were each others toughest test by far. Battle for P4P #1
@@nikygarbage7056 yeah beating the pound for pound number 1 fighter in the world is embarrassing 😂. Yes he didn't dominate him... how embarrassing.. some mma fans could not be dumber

@@yogi2983 to call a person who passed puberty 1400 years back a girl shows your presentism fallacy. Since your name is Yogi you should read your scriptures about Krishna having s*x with prepubescent Rukmini and she goes unconscious mentioned in Brahmavaivarta Purana.
Hammerfisting your opponent when they have you in a body triangle from the back is hardly "damage", there's little leverage and all arm punching, it's not like elbowing someone that's ontop from someone on bottom.
You're absolutely right. It's not damage, and it's never been considered as damage. Having your opponent's back is a dominant position as it isolates you from strikes and allows you to look for submissions. Islam clearly won that fight and now everyone (except for the most biased of fans) has come to terms with that realization
Only had one minute. You Islam fans are delusional lol. Dude looked like he was in a car crash at the end of the fight and Volk looked ready to go for more
Getting a body triangle on an opponent as good as Volk takes some seriously good grappling skills and should be given credit when picking the winner of a round, even if there was no immediate, visible damage done. It’s a dangerous and draining position to be caught in.
Honestly there's more arguments to give round 3 to Islam than to Volk. You even hear idiots say Volk 10-8ed Islam in R5 because he dropped him at the end and threw 2 or 3 ground strikes, completely oblivious to the fact that Islam started that round by wobbling Volk
Craig is also forgetting all the shady shit Australia did to help Alex out. No IV's, 12hrs less time to rehydrate, etc. I've never seen Islam that tired so I was confused. Then I heard they cut his rehydration time and it made sense. Alex vs Islam rematch will be much worse for Alex.
@@sbmuss7118 He's never been accused of using one before. However, when Australia took away 12+ hours from his rehydration(to try to help their guy win) he needed it. How many times did Volk have his rehydration cut by more than half a day when he weighed 145lbs? Don't be a daft c*nt.
what is craig talking about ? the body triangle round was 4th round and Islam pieced volk up before he took him down and without much effort took volk down and controlled him. Volk throwed some pillow fists behind his back but they literally do 0 damage. craig sounds very bitter here
What? You take someone’s back and the judge should score it for the one who couldn’t escape it? Shaking fingers and screaming like a girls is now days a skill? WTF
especialy if you know that punch behind the elbows/back of the head would stop the fight immediately in a real fight when you have the back of your opponent
Islam whooped Volk despite being dehydrated. It wasn't his best performance, but considering he was dehydrated, that's actually a perfect performance from him. I'm surprised he didn't lose. If people understand hydration rules well, I think Islam shouldve been the underdog. You have to be dumb to bet your money on a dehydrated fighter to beat a hydrated one. But Islam managed to pull it off against Volk in his hometown. GOAT status confirmed.
Whooped? He was outlanded by Volk and wore the most damage. Dehydrated? His manager admited that Islam used liters of IV fluids while UFC only allows 100 mL and the aussie comission doesn't even allow any quantity of IV fluid.
also he was definitely way out weighed volk, he knew the risks of not being able to cut to the fullest extent he wanted too, so it’s really on islam for not being smart about it, which is crazy cause that’s his weight class. This might be a problem in the future if he wants a healthy title run, if he’s going to keep eating and not keep the weight down, and continues to make sketchy cuts, it can really hurt his health in the long run
@@skyxdenji I still don't think you understand what happened. The weight cut itself isn't the issue. It's the reduced recovery time that is only particular to Australia. Sorry we can't continue arguing unless you're on the same level knowledge wise. It'll be like arguing with a child.
What happened after Conor vs Khabib wasn't a norm. They are respectful towards their opponents. A friendly banter or I am gonna beat the shit out of you won't make them violent. Even a loss won't hv triggered Islam.
Ok they are talking about the damage, then what about Islam took down Volkanovski with a beautiful takedown and hold Volkanovski on a dominant position for so long. 😂😂😂😂 Also they pretend like Islam never landed any shot on Volk.
It’s so weird that you always bring people against Khabib and islam, dispute your a Russian your self, why you don’t bring Khabib and islam on the podcast?
Khabib and Islam are pals with Kadyrow who is a rapist, child murderer and war criminal. They present themselves as ethical, proud people and warriors are are friends with such a scumbag?
Lol hes not bringing ppl against them, hes just bringing in top level bjj guys (which is his sport to be fair) that just happen to coach the opposite team.
Punches from your back don't score as sig damage?!? What planet are you living on.... The control is worth more than little punches behind your head.... Of course Craig has to side w his team, but that doesn't trump such a dominant position
Even volk said that " the less recovery time will not affect me coz i am already bulking up but ya it will surely affect him." Later it was also confirmed that volk on fight night was heavier than makhachev by 1kg. Makhachev was 76-77kg & Volk was 77-78 kg. Ignorants like colby don't see this and say 145 er did good 🤦🏻
I agree with him. Volk was doing damage it doesn't matter that he was being "controlled." You're not in control if you're taking damage and dishing none out. Damage is supposed to trump position! The judges dont follow their own scoring criteria half the time. Lowkey robbery. But Islam won the rematch so you can't complain too much about it.
They were joking around, Islam was well received by a massive crowd in both Sydney and Perth. Very well respected by Australian mma fans regardless of the result.
Round 3 was the only close round. 124 islam won unanimous. 3 and 5 volk unanimous. It wasn't a close fight when 4 rounds were not close. Islam won unanimously
Lex basically said at the end Volk won lol cope harder Islam fanboys. Shhhhhhhhh.....Rip Khabib fans for GOAT convo JON JONES IS LEVELS ABOVE YOU RUSSIAN FIGHTERS ITS NOT EVEN CLOSE. BOTH VOLK AND JON JONES DOMINATE ANY DAGISTANI FIGHTER.
Lex has no weigh to the discussion, so does you. And Islam beaten Volk in his backyard. The rematch will be in Abu dhabi, i expect 1st round submission for Islam.
Trying to convince yourself hard lol. Dags are better. Still better. Jones beat a big ol lump with no grappling. Islam Makhachev still beats Volk, even in the standup..
Round 1, 2, 3 and 4 all Islam's. Islam outstruck him. Beat him in his own game. Islam outgrappled him. Took him down and controlled him. Volk had 0 take down even when Islam was distracted and gassed in round 5. 1 minute of round 5 is Volk's, yet couldn't finish him. Casuals these days. 😂
@@gametoppler it looks like your the casual lol. do some research before typing moron, round 1 was very even, islam landed 4 more punches but Volk landed 1 more significant strike than islam, round 2 they both had the same amount of total and significant strikes. round 3 islam out struck him by 1 punch, round 4 Volk out struck islam 50 punches to only 19 punches from Islam, even tho islam had Volks back, Volk was beating his ass lol. and round 5 not even close brother Volk closed out the night like the pound for pound fighter he is! and lets not forget than Volk walked him down every round!

A podcast with Khabib and Islam in Russian might be interesting.
Yeah for sure I belive in Russian with subtitles you'll get a way more in touch and depth side from them both
yess
@@UFCresultsweekly That would be cool, I think Lex said to Rogan that he's emotionally richer in russian than in english

This shows Islam did not have any animosity towards Volks team. He was just competing.
Craig's salty his boy lost his 22 win streak, now he has no cred to show off to ppl
It’s extremely hard to get out of a devastating body triangle.
It’s weird
I find escaping a body triangle is easier then a regular back take with regular hooks
Round 4 was easy round for Islam. Those insignificant strikes from Volk didn’t accumulate to anything.
RD5 was even easier for Volk Islam panicking looking at the clock with a broken face.
@@bboybreezi2417 Your boy volk got beat with home advantage, cry about it

Just wait before that happens JBJ is p4p #1
@@Zesrii he obviously didnt. 3 ring side judges didn’t score it like that. Neither did 19 of the 24 media score cards.
Let this not takeaway from the FACT that Islam ended a 12 and 22 fight win streak back to back within 3 months to become champ and defend it 😭
no one cares because most people think he lost to volk
Most people are idiots. He won a close fight.
@@stefanharris659 he won a close fight from a guy that was under his weight class. He was embarrassed lol

Holding on to stall should hardly be considered superior position.. 🤡
I'm pretty sure this is more damaging than merely hugging your opponent and stalling the fight... Unless you're clueless
@@Lbcyoung He wasn't hugging but looking for an opening, but he couldn't find any since he has no neck to choke lol

Islam clearly won that fight and now everyone (except for the most biased of fans) has come to terms with that realization
Backfisting your opponent when he has you in a dominant position isn’t winning.
Craig Jones look nervous af when Islam approach him inside the octagon
Not really but ok
Craig would out grapple him honestly
Islam beat Volk on the feet. ON THE FEET! Volk only got one minute in a 25min fight. Craig talks to much. Go and have a grappling match.
Only had one minute. You Islam fans are delusional lol. Dude looked like he was in a car crash at the end of the fight and Volk looked ready to go for more
@@stefanm2731 is that why Volk got medically suspended for longer than Islam 😂
I am a fan of Volk but Islam definetely won the fight. Volk won the third and fifth round, and even the third is debatable.
@James islam got his hands raised up🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
You being a fan doesn’t make you right
The fight wasn't even a real fight. Go back, watch it again and notice how many times both of them are seen watching the clock.
@@jusjay3834 Me being a fan hopefully makes people actually consider my opinion and not just label me an "Islam fanboy" or a "Volk hater".

Getting a body triangle on an opponent as good as Volk takes some seriously good grappling skills and should be given credit when picking the winner of a round, even if there was no immediate, visible damage done. It’s a dangerous and draining position to be caught in.

Islam had more takedowns and me knocked Volk with punches too. So did Volk but Volk didn’t get many takedowns.
@@josegarza7719 add control time in there as well lol
