    Let's face it, most of you dislike Volk only cause he's beaten your favorite fighter. Alex is extremely likable and is a killer fighter.

      Max is always one of my favorites, but getting to know Alex these past years, he is too! Both of them are great, people need to understand everyone loses. At least Max didn't lose to some a-hole
