Theres no way Islam looked that good on the feet and Alex looked that good on the ground, what a sport this is
Easier to strike down. Easier to wrestle when you’re shorter.
They counter each other in their own game😂
Volk's ground game is so underrated especially his take down-defence and Islam's ability to evade and counter-strike is also underrated. Both great fighters.
ROBBERY UFC IS WWE
@@mikeyrandom13silence dog
Volkanovski telling the crowd to lower the booing shows you what a man he is! What a fight that was, both these guys are absolute beasts!
👏👏
SIZE DOESN'T MATTER, VOLK PROVED IT ONCE AGAIN, FUNNY HOW THE SMALLEST FIGHTERS ARE THE TOUGHEST, LIKE BURNS VS KHAMZAT, BISPING VS GSP, EVERYONE UNDERESTIMATING THE SMALLEST BUT THEY ALWAYS END UP BEING TOUGHEST, ISLAM BEATS BROCK EASILY
I also noticed that, what a couple of class acts.
Exactly! Much respect for him for this
its for the cameras, off cameras hes cursing in kangaroo
Islam needed this type of experience to grow as a fighter and develop his own Fight IQ. First title defence, Khabib not in his corner, away crowd and fighting arguably the best fighter in the world is a lot of pressure and he held up very well. He is going to learn a lot from this fight and the next time we see him in the octagon he is going to even better fighter.
Why Khabib was not in his corner please ???
@@Akhy74 Khabib decided to retire from coaching so he can spend time with his family. That’s why he wasn’t there in his corner.
@@hasnainchariwala3743 thank you bro
Islam basically did what every fighter does lol , fighting in the opponent's territory and not having a friend in his corner , makhachev's corner was there so this isn't an excuse
@@Isabellethelasttransgendergayd he win
Massive respect for Islam
He was in the biggest moment in his life and still he remembered people in Syria and Turkey suffering from the devastating earthquake.
Thank you p4p king Islam
He's friend whispered to talk about seriya and turkey
p4p king? he has won two title fights and one was a guy a 5'5 dude from a lower division.
@@ChuckwaldMartin yeah yall keep mentioning volk like some pushover short guy that has no credentials lmao, he steamrolled the whole division and is one of the best fighters in the UFC. stop trying to undermine islam lol
@@rahimalblushi958 He reminded Islam of it. After everything he went through, not easy to remember everything
I loved that from him
Damn, Volk moved up a weight class and gave the champ the most issues he ever had. This is what a real warrior does.
Exactly. Which means being that much of an underdog he deserved the W
@@bobbyr2972 Not how it works lol.
@@number1gstar He did more damage tho, if a real fight ends with you on top of your opponent beating them up you won. And in damage scoring volk won
Ever had ? You do know Islam was ko’d before? 🙈😂
I mean as expected Islam gave him most issues too.
Volk trying to quiet down the crowd booing Islam 1:09 ! What a man. So much respect
he lost
Shut up
@@johnnyringo2695 Islam won the fight, but we clearly seen that Volk is the much better fighter. If they fought to the death Volk would win. Islam was completely done at the end of round 5, another round and he gets TKO'd. Volk is a fucking beast. Same size as Islam and he'd dust him no problems. Islam hugged for dear life in round 4.
Yeah, they dont have respect like Volk has
Most of the booers were drunks...
After watching this fight I realised Islam's striking is on another level. That is why coach Javier Mendez said he is the most complete fighter in the world right now. And the best active fighter of course🔥🔥 Agree or not?
I somewhat agree however having the takedown threat usually leads you to have better striking and land better shots we saw it with khabib and conor
Yes he is
Most complete fighter right now ? at least say jon jones or demetrious johnson cuz islam isn't even near complete
@@Isabellethelasttransgendergayd your name cracked me up😂
@@aljekSo, did his comment 😂😂😂. Comparing those two with lightweight 😁
Islam ended the 11 fight win streak of Oliveira and the 12 fight win streak of Volkanovski, in the space of 4 months. Incredible, monumental achievement. This is only the start of his legacy. ☝🏾
Fights probably gonna get overturned to a no contest cause of the IV scandal.
@@evan55237 innocent till proven.
@@muhammadzariff7075 his manager snitched on him what else do you need
@@evan55237 Actual proof from tests.
@@subz3440 its not like fighters arent allowed to use ivs. Its just he used it in a Commission where it is not allowed and *allegedly* more than 20-30 times the legal amount
Volk asking his crowd not to boo is just world class sportsmanship.. love em both!
Reminded me of glover last ppv class act by the home men after defeat
Australian sports teams and fans prove time and time again how low class they are. First time ever i've heard a crowd chant that the opponent is a wanker. Ultimate disrespect for an athlete who travelled to their home country to put on a performance.
@@K4ZUY4MISHM4 they say Brasil crowd is bad but I still hear they chant for Islam when he takedown Charles. But last fight with Alex, all I hear from the crowd when Alex on the ground is "Vol. Ka. Nov. Ski"
They should though. He got robbed. Shame on the judges, but we’ve seen this happen so many times before, that you have to wonder if they get their marching orders before the fight? At the very least, it should have been scored a draw.
@@tz7813 cope harder bro.. go and look at the detailed breakdown of the scores.
100% respect to Volkanovski, not 0.1% less. One of my most favourite fighters now.

Funny how the smallest fighter proved once AGAIN that smaller fighters are the toughest and at the same time most underestimated 🤣🤣, but Casuals won't learn and keep saying size matters, Islam beats Brock Lesnar and Ngannou EASILY.
@@Someone_KhabibbeatsJonesEASILY Found a short insecure dude….
@@Someone_KhabibbeatsJonesEASILY What a ridiculously dumb statement.
He's goated no doubt
One of the best fights ever! Here's my analysis:
R1 and 4: Islam. R3 and 5: Volk.
R2 was very close, but overall I think Islam won with a close margin.
Hats off to Volk for such an amazing wrestling defense. Finally someone showed they had the answer for the dagistani wrestling. And his mentality, body language and mind games throughout the fight were superior too. But people are not talking about Islam's striking. He dominated the standup most of the times with some amazing shots, which should ideally be Volk's area of expertize.
Amazing fight and love to see them fight some time in future. P.S. Electric Aussie crowd made it even better. Although they could've been a little easier on Islam with those Boos after the win :)
I had rd4 volks
You’re biased. Volk won
@@MD-01its not robbery but islam is the warrior
@@MD-01 You're biased. Islam kicked his ass
@@gallatinwrestling6422 kicked his ass? bruh Alex outstruck him like 4/5 rounds and literally the ONLY thing Islam had that entire fight over Volk was control time, which he did jack shit with. Volk was the only one that entire time who came remotely close to a finish, both by knocking him down in the 3rd and getting GnP at the end of the 5th. Holding onto someone's back for dear life is hardly kicking their ass...
After rewatching the fight it’s clear islam won 1,2,4
Round 3 was super close
But Volk won round 5 and ended the last minute dominantly
I think the reason why people think volk won because they expected Islam to dominate and Volk to get dominated
Yet in reality it was a close fight with Islam winning overall
Damn Volk was even calming down the crowd what a legend.
Sir, Islam beat the brakes outta Volk!!!, Volk lost!!!, HAHAHHAAHHAHHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHH Hahahahahaha, HHAAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, cry more , let's go Islam!!!
@AfricanHistory wtf 🤣🤣🤣🤣 do yous guys have beef on another comment section
something that i think needs to be noted is that Islam was very depleted in this fight, not only did he have a bad cut, but he also had 9 hours less to recover/refuel from the weight cut (due to the australia commision changing the weigh ins to be 9 hours later but keeping the fights at the same time). not trying to make excuses for Islam, but that needs to be taken into account, because he looked so drained in this fight, that wasnt islam at his best.
had islam been more energized, he would've beat volk more decisively imo, and thats coming from somebody who was rooting for volk (i think islam is boring)
the fact that the australia commission think they can change weigh in timings like that (to have Islam 9 hours less to rehydrate, forcing makhachev to be depleted) should be illegal, Australia has a terrible commision.
the weigh ins are meant to happen 33 hours before an event, not 24 lmao
Because Aussie's are racist asf 😂
@@zoyak9023 it’s definitely a factor. Odds against him on that one.
Heart was racing the whole fight. What a fight by both champions
Same bruh. All it would take is one clean shot and it could’ve been over

😂😂ISLAM WINS! UNANIMOUS DECISION!
NOW, LETS GONNA SEE WHAT CONOR AND CHARLES OLIVEIRA FANS DISCREDIT ALEX VOLKANOVSKI.
COPE HARD CASUALS 😂😂
same here, I've switch the live streaming from Wrestling Daze to MMA Guru to Firas Tristar Coach which more relax with no scream...
That fight sumarizes the very meaning of mma and deserves to be in the hall of fame as one of the greatest.
Right now, Volk is the biggest heart in the UFC, his aim to win is limitless. In other hand, Islam submitted Charles like it was nothing, and throw punches with a guy who won Max Holloway twice.
A Brother remembered other distressed brothers
Proud of you champ 🏆 💪 👏 💙
Yeah and be proud of his pal that had a word in Islam's ear as a reminder
Yes, I wonder when Islam is going to Turkey and Syria to help?

@@zoyak9023 youre right no excuses but he looked so much dehydrated.
He’s going to be even scarier for his division now after this. You hear him even say he needs to improve
@@zoyak9023 Its part of the game. Islam doesnt want a bad wieght cut he can fight at welterwieght. Guys like Volk and Colby are the real mvps for fighting people their own size.
Man Volk looked devastated and still gave such a humble cheerful speech
LIVING BEING IS OUR RACE, MANKIND IS OUR RELIGION, HINDU,MUSLIM,SIKH,CHRISTAIN, THERE IS NO SEPARATE RELIGION
ALMIGHTY GOD KABIR is the father of all souls that JESUS, MOHAMMAD, GURU NANAK, VEDH was telling in BIBLE, QURAN, GURU GRANTHA SAHEB
.. In OLD Orthodox Jewish Bible KABIR is mentioned...KABIR means (GREAT or MIGHTY GOD) in hebrew...but when translated in different languages translator removed KABIR word
Quran written in arabic has also KABIR word....KABIR means THE GREAT in arabic.
In vedh also KABIR is mentioned....
GURU NANAK himself described that LORD KABIR is his Guru and Lord KABIR met him..and in GURU GRANTHA SAHEB Guru Nanak called Lord kabir as kartar (GOD)
Just by reading holy books it is impossible to get depth knowledge of Holy text because we are just a living beings.. In vedhas also KABIR is mentioned...our brain isnot capable and doesnot understands the secrets behind the words and world.....GURU NANAK, JESUS AND MOHAMMAD were aware of LORD KABIR but later followers were not able to get depth knowledge
Real strength of character
Volk won
@@readmycomment3707 seeth
how you improve is by going out there and taking losses.. volk took on a huge challenge and definitely learned from this loss. he's gonna be back for islam

Both of these men are the definition of true Champions The way they presented themselves fight week, the way they went in there and put it on the line.

Two amazing fighters giving us an absolute show of skill and talent. They are truly worthy of the title P4P. This fight takes nothing away from either fighter and just shows what a true fight between worthy adversaries looks like. From their complete respect for each other to their display of skill, this was one of the best fights to date. I hope they fight again in the future and bring us another magnificent fight.
I really really needed islam to go through this beating. One of my most favorite fighters in the UFC and I was anxious the entire bout but I was happy volk challenged islam the way he did but still ended up winning. TRULY shows the strength of Islam. Islam v Charles 2 is gonna be ez work for Islam again
What a fight that was! Amazing sportsmanship and respect to both men. Volk really is great
something that i think needs to be noted is that Islam was very depleted in this fight, not only did he have a bad cut, but he also had 9 hours less to recover/refuel from the weight cut (due to the australia commision changing the weigh ins to be 9 hours later but keeping the fights at the same time). not trying to make excuses for Islam, but that needs to be taken into account, because he looked so drained in this fight, that wasnt islam at his best.
had islam been more energized, he would've beat volk more decisively imo, and thats coming from somebody who was rooting for volk (i think islam is boring)
the fact that the australia commission think they can change weigh in timings like that (to have Islam 9 hours less to rehydrate, forcing makhachev to be depleted) should be illegal, Australia has a terrible commision.

@@mikeyrandom13 I got Volk tbh, but gotta give it to Makhachev for making it thru his first defense against such a juggernaut.

@@mikeyrandom13 First Round Islam. Second Debateable, can give it to either one. Third Islam. Forth Islam. Fifth Volk. Islam outstruck him, he had more significant strikes. You can't say it's a robbery just bcz volk stopped five out of nine takedown attempts. If u just view the grappling, Islam had way more success and gound time than volk. So it most certainly was not a robbery.

We've seen how dominant Volk's striking is vs guys like Holloway, Ortega, Aldo & Islam got the better in a lot of exchanges. Very impressed by his striking.

Alex is a class act through and through, and what a tough man! he really won me over with this one
same. islam too.
His roar when he won...
Volk did very well, but Islam was still a deserving winner.
1. Volk was well rested, 7 months to rest and to prepare for the Islam bout. Islam fought in late October so he only had like 3 months to recover.
2. Volk had home ground advantage, that's pretty significant.
3. Volk didn't have to cut weight, while Islam had a bad weight cut. He looked kind of frail going into the fight, not his usual defined physique.
4. Volk showed that being smaller (but heavy) is actually an advantage when wrestling a taller opponent.
5. Pressure was on Islam to win, he was putting his title on the line. Volk had nothing to lose and all to gain as the underdog. Islam didn't even get the p4p which was supposedly promised.
Finally someone with some sense 🎉

Man Alex is such an inspiration. Dude started MMA in his 20s.
exactly, why aren't more people thinking like this? Islam been doing it his whole life. Volk just decided one day to start fighting and look how good he is.
That's what separates Alex from others. As Islam himself said, he started wrestling and BJj since he was a small boy, with Khabib and the latter's father.
Alex was a short 5'6" who simply put on a lot of muscles, so he could play rugby against 6'3" 230lb guys! And he didn't switch to MMA until he's 23 or so!
And despite Islam's next level wrestling, judo, and BJJ and 5 inches taller and 15 pounds heavier, he couldn't do a thing against Alex, in the wrestling or in BJJ submissions!
I also have to admire Islam, too, though: he's known mostly for his wrestling and BJJ; but he showed tonight, that even when those two major tools his his failed, he could still stand there and do 90% toe to toe against the best stand-up guy at the UFC on a pound for pound basis, for 5 rounds!
