@@dav2830 idk dude I feel like Yair or Holloway have a better chance at beating Ilia than Volk did... could see the belt change hands a lot coming soon
Except for the back take I’ve had the same thoughts, if he’s smart he’s gonna be throwing high kicks all night also. I also think manifesting, which doesn’t have to be a tangible real thing, is a very powerful tool. When you go in to fight the champ you gotta believe you will win 100%.
You asked what Ilia isn't good at, well here is your answer: He doesn't check leg kicks and rarely throws leg kicks. That's an area he should improve bcoz Volk will be targeting him with leg kicks like he did with Max. Emmet was smoking his legs. Anyway i love Illia , hope he throws headkicks bcoz we know its Volk's weakness 💪🔥💯
I've got a video coming out later this week regarding Volk's way to win and it is those legkicks, even though Emmett didn't throw many over 5 rounds, he still did a lot of damage and if you're fighting Volk who loves throwing those kicks...it might be a long night for Ilia. Love both fighters those, may the best man win!
@@leftrightgoodnightmma Yes he has to throw leg kicks and put illia on his back if he wants to win. A standup fight means that Illia will win. It's the same strategy Hermanson used against Joe Pyfer, Pyfer can't check leg kicks to save his life. It's shocking that these younger fighters struggle with something so easy to learn, shocking stuff 😤😤😮
@@leftrightgoodnightmma Also Volk will throw many jabs but Illia's head movement is actually good. Topuira needs to push him on the cage and brawl like a mad man. I don't think Volk can take his power. Hurt him then follow him to the ground and submit him 💯💪💪.Illia can actually win but he needs to throw that power right hand on the side of Volk's head to take his equilibrium like Ruiz did to Anthony Joshua 🤣🤣
@@robertnjeru7334 I think Ilia's beat chance of winning is going out there and hunting Volk down for the finish in the first and second round. Once you enter that third Volk will start to faint more and I can Ilia really bitting on them and getting countered badly. And if Volk can keep chopping Ilia's legs and fighting off of the jab and mixing in the takedown, I can see him winning a clear decision. But those first 2 rounds are incredibly dangerous with someone like Ilia who has nukes in his hands
This take sorta backwards thats why i think you got flaxk its not obvious but illia is pretty easy to boast as the better striker outside of the clinch when standing and g and p but volks standup is great so people dont see the advantage there yet until the match is here. If illia has a ground advantage its not clear its a submission grappling/finishing advantage so much as his g n p being clean and precise and brutal.
I haven't seen a new featherweight in a long time with as good as boxing as Ilia, almost everything he does on the feet is near perfect, will be a super close fight!
@@leftrightgoodnightmma Holloway has been called the best boxer in the UFC and Volk beat him 3 times. Max has better reach, far more experience at the top and a portfolio of wins to be proud of. Can Illia say that?
@@TheAbabab77 no he can't, but neithee could Pereira when he first came to the UFC and then beat Strickland for a title shot, Strickland beat Imavov and Abus for a title shot and look how those turned out. I know how great Holloway is but these "levels" that everyone talks about have been proven wrong
Ilia is good all around but his striking iq is nothing compared to Volko! Mate do you not understand the difficulty of standing infront of Volk while he’s giving you all kinds of looks and feints while moving around you and picking your legs apart. Who has Ilia fought that has any kind of movement like Volk, literally no one. Your whole prediction is purely based on Ilia’s confidence? That makes no sense. I get that you’re a fan of the sport, but we’re in this sport, in the gym with Volk, and I’m telling you brother there’s levels to this game. You’ll see what I mean in a week lol.
I agree with everything you've said stated above mate, Volk is incredible and one of, if not the greatest fw of all time and I really hope he destroys Ilia. I will be doing a breakdown video early next week predicting this fight. I just believe as of right now Ilia will have Volk's number in this fight.
After watching tape on Ilia recently, it's how slick he is and how he's always looking "for something" whereas when I watch Islam, he is a bit more composed and happy to "do nothing" for longer than Ilia. Islam is far greater than Ilia on the ground, but it terms of jiu jitsu and having someone's back, I think Ilia has shown greater levels
Topuria actually does ground and pound I think volk will be good enough to get up but may get caught with a big shot on his way up becuase illia will not just hang on the back like Islam he will look to finish this is not a bad take at all
That makes no sense. Illia is adament he wins in the first rd and is already talking about fighting conor, despite having zero big names in his portfolio of wins. How on earth is Volk preoccupied but not Illia who is looking well ahead of the humbling he will receive at 298?
I agree that he hasn't beaten anyone really, but who did Strickland beat to get a title shot, who did Poatan beat for a title shot at mw, who did Islam beat for a title shot. Ilia should have fought Holloway or Yair first, but just cause he hasn't beaten anyone doesn't mean he can't be Volk
He’s not saying he doesn’t deserve a title shot. He’s just saying who has ilia beat to give you this insane confidence that ilia can beat volk like the way u say he can
I’ll never understand how people so confidently say stuff like ilia would beat volk 7 out of 10 times. Just insane I mean wait till after the fight. This is volk we r talking about
I do believe that I was a little over confident with Ilia in this video, however I think this fight will be one of those 3/10 where Ilia gets it done. not easily, but will beat him
why would volk ever vacate? he obviously wants to be champ champ it would do so much for his legacy. if he beats ilia and evoloev he most likely gets one more chance at 155 vacating would be a dumb choice for him.
I do think Evloev deservea a title shot right now, he should fight the winner of Yair/Ortega. I also think Volk is too humble to hold up a division if there are no contenders left, I could see him beating Ilia and then maybe Evloev, and then just vacating and ending his career at lw with a few fights
this glasses guy is a genius of MMA
keep making these vids brother 😭
I mean... Ilia KO, sounds like I predicted it perfectly
@@leftrightgoodnightmma yea crazy. what u think about yair vs ilia? that’d make a good vid

Volk v Topuria is the new Aldo v McGregor. First round KO.
wouldn't surprise me if went the exact same way tbh
And Still

i aint watching just clicked to say hell naw. plus yair better than ilia
I also agree than Yair would most likely beat Ilia, but appreciate the comment, will look to improve 👍

how do you figure Ilia a greater threat on your back than Islam?

Those 155lbs titleshots aren't free. Why the fuck would the UFC give him 3 title shots at 155 without ever fighting a topcontender at 155.
@@DaCrazyO I said he would need a few fights, like the winner or Poirier vs BSD and then like a Charles/Gaethje/Arman and then a title shot

just a prediction mate 👍
is it still BS?

Lol Illia has beaten no one top level. Volk has literally destroyed every great. Vol will humble this arrogant clown.
volk got koed in 1 minute in his last fight.He is not that "great"
Ilia just beat a top level guy....
volk was humbled, cry now.
