"Don't be scared of challenge because it's only gonna make you better" - Alexander Volkanovski
What a great msg by Alexander
This was the best champ champ fight ever. So technical, so competitive.
Hipe volk dont use cheap reason being short day notice. Than he a great warrior
Don't be scared but know that you'll lose because it will just make you better!!!
The moral of this video volks lose🤣
Volk is already a legend of the sport
Based on what? He doesn’t have half the defences aldo has. Sick of clowns like this making stupid claims
Already?
@@novaclan8542yes
Been a legend
Been a legend
“He took the back so you’ve got to give that round to him” What a legend. He’s honest about scoring and isn’t delusional like some fighters who insist they won every single round.
i liked that too, made him seem much more honest than others
Ufc pays him to have a congruent opinion to them. He knows for a fact he whooped his ass
@@oldformatguru They don't. UFC fighters get to say whatever they want. There is no conspiracy here. Volk is just a good guy
@@oldformatguru lmao, accepting defeat literally lowers your stock. You must be in to mad conspiracy theories
unlike islam screaming like a child, im the best fighter in the world after stalling for 3 minutes and then getting ground and pounded
The fact they hugged after the bell at the start of the fifth round shows how much respect they have for each other.
Also the fact Islam hugged all the way though the fight as well 😂
Islam loves hugging, especially around the nuts area
Volk is legend but that fight Makachev is the winner clearly
@@sirarungasal3732clearly? Explain what makes it so very clear to you
@@vic7k Islam was actually quite affective on his feet. Did you watch the fight? Islam had a considerably higher strike accuracy than Volk. it was like 40 to 60%, something like that.
We are so lucky to get an ACTUAL pov breakdown of possibly the most combined high level fight in the ufc ever. Love Volk because he actually broke it down rather than tale teh easy way out and just dance around and say “cant say too much”. He really did a breakdown!
No it isn’t lol
It isn’t as far as that actual display. The two individuals may be the highest skilled individuals but the actual display wasn’t as technical and wide ranging in skills as fights like Sandhagen vs Yan
@Thatthar899Pablo
One of the best events of my life. Being there was so loud
same brother unbelievable support was so grateful to get tickets, such a shame the decision didnt go the other way would have been perfect.
Man was shattered I couldn’t go tickets sold out in 55 secs😭
@@noperabradley3065 fr tickets sold out so quick lol
Was it true that the crowd were being racist or was that false?
I got on on the dot and it was sold out was spewing big time
Watching this back before the rematch is kinda surreal. Can’t believe they’re about to run it back. Props to Volk 🏆
Same, can't wait.
Are you placing a bet on him? And or Is that a wise idea?
Man, I’m still in shock how this card turned out. Not saying Charles/Islam and Costa/Khamzat weren’t going to be awesome. But now? Man, I cannot wait!
Not complaining about the loss, not trying to convince anyone he won any of those earlier rounds, just admitting areas he could improve on and providing an unbiased opinion of his performance. What a consummate professional, you can easily see why he's at the top of the sport. Wish they would have a rematch.
That’s the best attitude you could have after being badly robbed. There’s more of an argument for imavov beating Strickland than Islam beating volkz
It's because he lost
@@FilizFerenczy You must have a lot of friends.
He lost plain and simple!that’s what humbled him otherwise you can tell he is a cocky little bugger!
@@khyzerdavis7818 don't get it
Fucking love the fact that you still take accountability for your shortcomings and give Islam credits for his success, even though you did lose. You surprised a lot of people that day with your performance, but for me is the honesty, the character you show through this that I love the most!
Also, it didn't surprise a lot of us. Who knew volk would win. Imo and again, in a lot of people's minds - volk did win.
Volk is a true champ and champs give credit due where it’s due. He wasn’t expecting islam to have such great striking. Islam also didn’t expect volk to be so strong neither. That’s what made this fight fun.
Volk did amazing against a warrior from Dagestan.
All I gotta say is nobody is beating these two guys. They are the real deal.
The real question is can Charles beat volk or Volk beat Charles? That is the fight to make.
Volk would destroy Charles
They were each other toughest test, no way either fella doesn't respect the other
@@pxrxdx187 he lost.
all respect in the world to Volkanovski from Russia!! What an amazing sportsman, competitor and human being, losing to him would be absolutely no shame
Volk was robbed
@@kaosbruv4587 not really, Weasle did a punch by punch analysis of the fight and 49-46 was the correct result. One judge had it right. Let's move on
@@kaosbruv4587... Very clear the one that got robbed is Islam... Simply because after defeat the salty shorty the UFC pass on the p4p title.... That's daylight robbery.
Islam c'est le meilleur
@@aminebouras7591 apa saja lah manggkuk.😁
Man Volk fought like a savage in this one, having the ‘scariest’ grappler in the UFC in his back and just angrily screaming to him to do something, to try and finish him.
technically speaking you cant do much against someone with short limbs..... that's the damn secret.... even in his last fight, he could stand and ground and pound Yair while Yair was still keeping Alex in his guard..... truth is, Alex's own fans didnt give him much respect because he is short..... let's be honest, people are superficial, and cant swallow that pill......but in fact, at same weight, the only disadvantage of being shorter is range, and if you accept that, and become a master at range like Alex....... you find many advantages at being short, like the so much difficulty to take their limbs, or take them down because their center of gravity is much lower
@@abdelhakyac7285 thats why he submmited alex?
@@TheBaTaN1K please dont read a comment and answer it unless you’re sober

I love that Volk always has the crowd in the back of his mind. He knows he's there to entertain.
youtube.com/@LoveandHeart31
That was my big takeaway too. It was honestly great/refreshing to watch, considering so many of the fighters out there to the contrary
@@WorkerBeesUnite ruclips.net/user/shorts6bb8y_Yousw?si=Cn1ktPRVkYZQc9ci
Part of the pressure of fighting in front of a home crowd. He didn't want to disappoint.
“Everybody forgets that I gave myself a chance.” And “I’m not happy with just doing well” the fuckin great inspirational af volk always rooting for ya brotha
He did go out of his way which is why I respect him now
Man life is such an experience and to be able to see Volk react and acknowledge the support he was given made me feel something inside. Truly epic moment
volk himself said “it dont matter how many shots like that i land when a guy has your back” much respect bc these “volk got robbed” morons really have taken away from the highest level chess match you will ever see
Nah, Volk won, he's humble to a fault here. What good is it to be in a dominant grappling position when you can't/don't do anything with it?
@@oobieo so its better to be held down against your will as oppose to holding someone down against there will? glad you dont score fights
@@gam3rflow5Yes, the current scoring criteria only values ground control if you do damage with it. Just holding on for dear life isn't supposed to be worth as much as whoever is scoring damage in the position
@@oobieo found the moron.
If you doing absolutely nothing it should be stood up...its not at all entertaining..simple as that. The only entertaining thing about it was volk screaming at him that he's doing nothing
Honestly, this is probably the most high-level MMA fight we may have ever seen, 2 undisputed champs going for pfp greatness. Credit to both men on an amazing fight, they could fight 10 times and I think they would go 5-5.
That Ortega fight was crazy as well
More like 9-1 to Islam. It's whoever makes mistakes, and Islam has hardly made any his whole career. Khabib has never been cut. The only fight people will ever talk about for the rest of his career is the dood who knocked him out when he made that 1 mistake. Islam will retire with that belt plus the welterweight strap.
@@SkintoneChickenboneyou’re delusional homie
@rubenpacheco2132 don't just say I'm delusional kid, explain yourself
Man what a class act Volk is. Big inspiration for a short guy like me.
Short guys never finish first, he just showed you that. Don’t take inspiration. Just stop being short.

You're an inspiration Champ. The best warrior there is. Greatest sportsmanship. An amazing role model. I can't imagine how proud your family, friends and country are of you.

Islam won that fight but i will tune in to watch a second fight, you don't see two elite champs at their prime fight each other
Islam could fight in welterweight
Except Islam didn't necessarily win or deserved to win. The draw would've been fair. Islam received more damage that he's ever taken in all of his career combined

@@luthfan9395 Exactly, which makes it clearly a 10-8, with Volkanovksi dropping him and ending up on top pounding Islam. How can that round, be scored the same (10-9) as the rest of the rounds (all extremely close)
@@pokemonovice9758 THERE IS NO WAY VOLKS WON 10-8 IN ROUND 5 , WATCH FULL FIGHT MAKHACEV GIVE KNEE TO VOLKS FACE AND MADE VOLKS EYEBROW BECOME SQUIRT BLEED AND THAT HAPPENED BEFORE VOLKS KNOCKED MAKHACEV DOWN SO 10-9 IS SUPER FAIR, THAT IS WHY THERE IS NO WAY 10-8, you clearly clueless about how to score in mma
I like this dude. When I say this. I'm not saying it as a fighter. As a fighter he is truly one in a million. He is an amazing champion. So dominant, so skillful, so precise and fast too. But when I say I like him. I mean as a person I like him. It takes a lot of self-discipline, it takes a lot of character to think the way this man thinks. His mindset is unique. He is truthful and honest.
It's a privilege to see him inside and outside the octagon
He is humble enough to be likeable and more importantly it helps him learn from mistakes. Some people are scared to admit they have holes in their game. He is also supremely confident in himself. You cannot be world champion and last the grinders without the heart and supreme confidence.
After watching this video. Makhachev definitely won 4 rounds but big respect to Volknosvki
Definitely won 3 rounds ..1,2 and 4 .. he lost round 3 and round 5 because volk scored a knock down and finished on top even though it was only a minute volk dominated
@kerrlonjordan6816 3 rounds or 4 rounds doesn't matter... personally i have it 3 - 2 to islam ...volk a freaking monster but Islam won this fight for sure
@@georgexander7170 debatable, but I don’t see how volk fanboys claim volk won this fight when he barely won rounds
I watched it live but that still gives me goosebumps ...amazing athlete
A quality Proffesional athlete.
A quality honest person.
He gives his honest thoughts on the fight and gives credit to his opponent for getting the better of him at times and for the quality of his technique.
Awesome bloke
Awesome breakdown Volk! Thank you for doing that. Was really a treat! Really hope to see the rematch!
I've rewatched this UFC fight more times, than any other.
Even Volk knows he lost, he just doesnt want to go against his fans. Fans should be more realistic and less fanatic.
all those people arent neccesiarly his fans its just islam haters
Volk clearly won 3 rounds. The only people who think Islam won are Muslim people. All khabib casual fans
Any Muslim who watches MMA without being biased know volk won
@@arjenrobbed1294 any islam hater who watched the fight who isnt biased know islam won
@@arjenrobbed1294 Any christian, muslim, budist, jew who watches mma knows Islam won.
Damn you could feel the emotion in Volks words at the end 💔 I think he’s gonna take great confidence from that 5th round, knowing that he can more than hang with Makhachev in all departments and didn’t need to give him as much respect. Tough fight ahead at UFC 290 but bring on that rematch 🤩
Yeah he will probably challenge for the 55 belt after this yair fight because there is not clear no 1 contender up next at the moment. I guess Ilia but honestly he could use 1 more fight
Volk has got a lot more experience then islam in 5 round bouts, this was first time islam ever fought 5 rounds, so big respect too islam for getting through and winning as well
@@Fitkid7672 Yeah I agree. Think he should probably be matched up with an Ortega (depending where his recovery is at) or Holloway before he gets the next shot.
@@mrqas2000 Ahh I didn’t realise that. So potential improvements from Islam in his endurance in the championship rounds then. Big respect to him, is a shame that as the champ he gets booed.
@@johnelahad721 That booing is poor taste for any country. It’s uncalled for and to me in made me see Volks country as very petty. I’m American and show respect to all fighters.
What a legend Volk ❤
He lost the fight if you judge it as a sanctioned MMA fight
But he showed his heart and toughness.
I thought Islam won that comfortably 3-2, and he was winning the 5th round bar that final minute when obviously it swung back towards Volk.
Immense fight and fantastic performance by both men.
what you talking abt? Volk knocked him down both 2 and 3. How did he lose a round he knocked him down? 💀
@@Aceeeeeeeeeeeeeeevolk scored 1 knockdown in the fight and it was in the last round wtf are you talking about lil bro
@SpiceSki 2, 3 and 5 Islam got dropped. Wtf you smoking lil man
@@bradbarfuss6472 But Islam did more damage. According to the rules, damage and fight ending sequences trump volume. Plus Volk was in more danger than Islam was for the majority of the fight. Islam was comfortably winning that last round until he fell on his back and was content to run the clock out.
Get rid of your own bias.
@@bradbarfuss6472they weren't proper knockdowns. There were a lot of slips/hit while attempting a takedown. Islam also won a lot of exchanges
Maaaaaate! You will go down as one of the greatest fighters of all time and the best Australian athlete, a true Aussie character and legend!
He is one of Australia's greatest athletes bar none.
Pftt, Australia? He's one of the greatest athletes in the world. Probably the best of his generation. Not just combat athletes, his cardio alone is almost impossible to attain.
All we hear about in Australia is when an AFL player gets a sprained ankle.
He is a dawg
He might be the greatest!
One in a long line of excellent sportsmen
All the fights I have watched this one was the hardest to judge. Well done to both fighters
This video hits differently with the rematch seven days away.
Reminds you of the wrestling capability of Alex. He has a lotta things to use against Yair.
They said he was a wrestling champ before playing Rugby at 214 lbs weight, it makes sense.
Yair is super dangerous on the feet and has a dangerous bottom game as well. Alex will need to utilize his fight IQ and implement all his tools to win.
You told it!
Volk toyed with Yair and rag dolled him + finished him on the ground
Damn I love content like this, please do one with Rob for his 2nd Izzy fight!
This is unreal content. Thank you Volk. The inner game of fighting.
I just love this. Insight into the mind of one of the greatest fighters analyzing their losing fight in an objective way is why he is Alexander the Great.
Even volk realized he lost the fight after watching it and some random people say volk won😅😅
These clowns say he won round 4😂
He didnt think he lost. He knows it was close. Islam did more control time & Volk did more damage. Which one is more significant? In that 5th round, Volk looked like he was just getting started. Islam looked finished

Volk isn't short, he's a gentle giant, he will be remembered as a gladiator would
I have so much respect for Volk, as a Dagestani fighter Volk is loved here in Dagestan 🙏
Volk is very respectful and a great champion. About a year ago I was like now, Volkanovski he’s all right. After the last couple fights I’ve seen him the guy has grown on me tremendously because of how humble and honest he is to everyone out here.
He seems like a regular guy but he’s definitely no regular dude!!!!
His commentary is awesome. Both in the cage and in the breakdown.
I feel like even volks knows he lost lol.
Most fighters said islam won.
Love that fox Australia took off the knees sequence in rd5 that wobble n cuts volk.
Thats a pretty bias breakdown fox.
What fighters said that
Are you suggesting that Islam won the 5th round despite the knock-down and ass beating he got? If not, then Fox leaving off a sequence to make out Volk won a round which he obviously did win either way doesn't seem too outrageous. Initially most of the watch-alongs like Rogan & co, Cejudo & co etc thought Volk clearly won, though I guess going back in retrospect you can give it 48-47 either way. Volk was a $4.20 underdog though, and if the best argument for the big weight-cutting LW champ was that he scaped past a guy who the UFC PI have cleared to safely make 135lbs (if he cut as much body weight % as Islam), then it's a pretty poor showing for Islam
@@jamesthompson9003cejudo rewatched the fight and said volk won same with joe
@@ali-mk4of Cejudo did, but Rogan said on his podcast with Masvidal over a month after the fight that he's watched it over and over and still thinks Volk won rounds 2, 3 and 5, just as Masvidal agreed with him on damage that Volk wins those rounds

Going to see you on Saturday champ! Can't wait!
Much love with this aussie mad man from ireland , Tough as nails
Sorry but Volk lost every aspect of that fight wheather Striking or grappling...The crowd was overreacting to everything volk was doing,effective or not
theres definitely a fan and media bias when it comes to ckb and freestyle gym. like rewatch the izzy jan fight, commentators completely ignored the work jan did on feet and only talked about izzys feints.
@bobzen , its also because people underestimated Volk too much and when they see Volk wasn't finished like Oliveira they are too impressed and become biased, but for people who are not casuals knew it was going to be a harder fight than Oliveira because:
1- Volk has much better fight IQ (Khabib said this as well), striking defense and striking speed than Oliveira. And also we see in Ortega fight Volk's submission defense is very good as well.
2- Volk has more experience especially in 5 rounds championship fights compared to others (Oliveira never even fought 5 rounds), if I remember correctly Volk never lost 4th and 5th rounds vs Holloway and Ortega, his cardio is one of the best, only Makhachev beat him in 4th round for the first time.
@@timurjack8773 Great points you made there,people/casuals tend to forget that before the Islam fight Volk was unbeaten for over 10years & he was the P4P king....So underestimating him was foolish to start with Volk fought great as ussual,but it was not enough...I just dont agree with those who say he was robbed in that night,Lets give credit where is due

Better watch round per round breakdowns and you'll see why.
@Dantes2302 is pretty clearly islams with the wobble he got on volk. Like almost everyone who knows the sport scored round 2 for islam lol idk how you score that for volk
@Dantes230 round 5 makhacev won for first 3 minute because he made volks left eyebrow become bleed because makhacev give knee to volks face and last 2 minute in round 5 volks won with knocked makhacev down and with GNP to makhacev BUT dont forget so many times he missed a lot GNP (there is moment volks hit makhacev hands because makhacev blocking with his hands also there is moment volks hit canvas when he do GNP to makhacev) so volks won round 5 for 10-9 not 10-8 not even close because 10-8 situation IF volks totally domination bully makhacev and makhacev did not nothing, so you clearly clueless about how to score in mma
you are The Great for sure. Thanks for the honest take on your own fight. True Royal Class!
I hope volk never changes his walkout song. Freaking love it!
Volk is a hell of a representative for Australia. Keep up the awesome work Volk
Man when I first saw this fight I felt Volk won, after rewatching and having the power of replay, Islam clearly took Rounds 1,2,3
we need to see this one again
Man fought Mendes, Aldo, Holloway, and became legendary going up against Islam!
Islam won 4 rounds is how I saw it after rewatch, but can't wait for the rematch! The two of the best p4p fighters right now!

keep enjoying yourself while you can, artificial intelligence will expose your people.
After rewatching the fight over 10 times I realized that Islam actually won rounds 1,2 and 4 and arguably even won round 3 !
Islam was landing in significant strikes until the 5th round also where volk went to town and racked up a crazy hit count.
