GSP was similar ofc but he was almost too endearingly wide eyed, well meaning and almost naive. On top of that; the popular but niche sport that MMA was during GSP's era versus the mainstream, internationally beloved sport MMA is today, the Volk era, are two very different things. Championship today comes with so much more scrutiny, pressure and opportunity than it came with years back. So Alex maintaining this behavior and approach today is invariably more impressive than doing so a decade ago. He certainly is the first of his kind.

I’m not gonna lie, I didn’t like Volk for a long time but ever since he best Max in their 3rd fight. Now he’s one of my favorite fighters. Even if you still don’t like him you gotta respect him!

Let’s keep it honest Volk could come in and beat Charles or Islam on his best day. This guy was once a larger man and is fighting down in weight. Alex’s fight IQ is off the charts, strong standup and sharp wrestling. The movement is improving. Love from a Canadian fan.
Looking at these comments its crazy to see the evolution of love the champ is recieiving. No one can tell me this was the impact he was having 2 fights ago.
I used to not like him but after he made it clear with max in their 3rd fight I became a fan,this guy is a very sharp striker.Not sure about 155 tho but,give it a shot
Volk is one of those fighters who could potentially beat fighters in higher weight classes. Hes so fast and covers so much ground that he’s hard for anyone to hit. Hes built like a pit bull. We generally assume smaller fighters can’t beat bigger ones but I would not be shocked if Volk could challenge Welterweights
@@blakehoule6698 eventually someone will hold a belt in 3 classes. Volk probably walks around at 185 lbs. I could see his speed and movement being a problem for welterweights. Pit bulls are able to beat bigger aggressive breeds in fights.
I hope he doens't have to step in but I do really want him to get the winner because I think he will do great at 155 but I feel like if dariush wins his fight then they will probably give it to him on the ole leon type vibe cause he supposedly deserves it lol
Mad respect for volk! Putting his neck on the line w fighters uder him, hungry coming up tryna take the others guys head off only to take his head of eventually. BALLS.

Definition of a breathing, walking chad on this earth. Much respect to Volk man.
Love this champ thats REALLY wanna stay active instead of saying it or acting like it or not being active :)
Volks the man, hard to dislike him tbh.
no ones gonna stop this guy volks a monster
“Somethings not wrong in this head” love it 🔥
Leon watching this "P4P what? 💦 There is no P4P" lol RESPECT The Great.
Looking at these comments its crazy to see the evolution of love the champ is recieiving. No one can tell me this was the impact he was having 2 fights ago.
20:44 You know not to mess with Alexander, he is real talk!!!
Love this guy!
Great guy! Love to see him against gathje, poirer or chandler! He deserves all he got!
I used to not like him but after he made it clear with max in their 3rd fight I became a fan,this guy is a very sharp striker.Not sure about 155 tho but,give it a shot
Love Volk.
Proper Grafter
And game as a Badger.!
Volk is one of those fighters who could potentially beat fighters in higher weight classes. Hes so fast and covers so much ground that he’s hard for anyone to hit. Hes built like a pit bull. We generally assume smaller fighters can’t beat bigger ones but I would not be shocked if Volk could challenge Welterweights
Welterweights 😂😂
@@blakehoule6698 eventually someone will hold a belt in 3 classes. Volk probably walks around at 185 lbs. I could see his speed and movement being a problem for welterweights. Pit bulls are able to beat bigger aggressive breeds in fights.
@@blakehoule6698 he fought at welterweight…..
Alex even willing to fight islam or Charles is astonishing.. he's definitely the goat if he could be champ champ
What a lovely man 💕
I hope he doens't have to step in but I do really want him to get the winner because I think he will do great at 155 but I feel like if dariush wins his fight then they will probably give it to him on the ole leon type vibe cause he supposedly deserves it lol
Mad respect for volk! Putting his neck on the line w fighters uder him, hungry coming up tryna take the others guys head off only to take his head of eventually. BALLS.
He’s what ya do if we get the Charles win we deserve…
Charles gets his homecoming against hopefully beneil (who deserves it).
Volk dominates yair/Emmett in Australia.
Then we get the super fight on international fight week 🤝
Even tho Beneil is one of my favorite fighters!!! You still gotta love you some Rocko, from Rockos modern life!!
Volk is a straight up legend. Can't wait to see him against the winner of this lightweight clash.

I think it would be cool for Volk to fight next in Perth and then challenge for the 155 belt during international fight week.
