So 2-2 scoring in pride with Volk likely


What are you talking about? Pride was 3 rounds of 10-5-5. That 5th round where Volk was best in the fight wouldn’t have happened.

Tell me you didn't read any of my post without telling me you didn't read my post.

Watched the end of the rogan companion show while eating breakfast hoping they would be talking about what’s next for 155 but in typical Rogan fashion they go off on political conspiracies for the remaining 40 minutes

How did you see the full fight companion video? As soon as the stream ended last night, the vidoe went to private.

If you want to see the 5th round where evryone thinks Volk win, here is this clip that someone put up.

So Volk should have won because he had 1 really good round? Is it not a 5 round fight? I wasn’t aware that you can just wait for someone to have 1 great round and crown them winner. This is getting hyped because Volk did what he did in the 5th. If he went off like that in round 3 or 4 and Islam had his ground control round in 5 then people wouldn’t be saying shite.

What about that round where Islam had 4+ min ground control time? Volk lost. It was closer than many thought but he didn’t do shite the first 3 rounds.

It was either a Draw or Islam W. Volk doesn’t get that win.

A body triangle when taking the back and going for the choke is being aggressive however

That’s aggressive grappling imo

Excited to see volk vs yair. That should be a great fight.

Id also love to see beneil vs islam. I hope ufc gives beneil his shot. He deserves it and is a beast standing and on the ground.

Only thing Volk showed was how the only way to out gas tank a Dagastani is to gas up with methanol. Volk’s stamina isn’t natural. It’s getting better as he ages. That’s not how the body works…at all.

Did y'all see Dan Hooker accusing Islam of taking an IV after weigh-in to get back to weight on Twitter?

I don't doubt it. Being a weight bully is part of the Dagestani way and it nearly kills them to get down that low.

I'm sure they are massive cheats just like most other fighters now.
