Volks history is mostly beating strikers and 1 undersized Chad Mendes. He almost got subbed by Brian Ortega, which went to 5rd decision. Islam choked out Oliveira…the transitive math points to obvious conclusion IMO

Yes, but he didn't.  And Ortega is a Renzo Gracie black belt who is huge and strong for that weight class.  I didn't come away from that thinking that Volk is vulnerable to grapplers; I came away from it thinking that it may be physically impossible for anybody at that weight to choke him out.

That said, Islam is different.  So it's a fasicnating matchup.  Can Islam get the sub?  Can Volk get the TKO?  If neither, who does more to win the decision?  Shit, I have no earthly idea who wins this, or how.

I thought Ortega was part of the Torrance crew, Rorion's two sons.

I agree Islam is different. He was able to sub Oliveira, which is saying something.

So in local time this is an early Sunday morning fight?

I get that most of their PPV revenue is from north america, but dont they want the local A/NZ folks to watch local fighters and MEA/Russian/Caucasus folks to see Islam also?

Yes, good catch.  He's a Rener Gracie black belt, not Renzo Gracie.

If youre portuguese do you just call him Whore-reon?

Della Madalena and Brown look like two different weight classes. Brown is huge.

Been waiting to see that entrance in that country. Thousands of Aussies singing "can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You'd better run, you'd better take cover" didn't disappoint.

I think 3-1 Makhachev but who knows. 

Volkanovski is a true G. Mad respect for this guy. He's like a big cranium on top of a pile of muscle.

49-46 seemed nuts but 48-47 either way seemed right. Great show. I had to piss the last 2 rounds but didn't want to miss anything

Islam was completely gassed, Volk was ready for another round. Some pretty great standup from Islam. Man what a great fight.

#2782

The guy that beat him is fighting on the prelims, and not even the prelim headlining slot, Derek Brunson vs Dricus Du Plessis. Hopefully that means 285 is pretty sick lineup.

I got JJ gassing out by rd 3

I think he gets the legs kicked out from under him. Reyes and Santos probably added tons of mileage to his engine. Hes a fucking sociopath but I do want to see him fight.

I've seen several Dricus Du Plessis fights and i don't remember a time where after I didn't say"damn that was entertaining. Really like watching this guy. If you missed that later tonight or tomorrow go find it online and watch.

Well, I tried to buy it several times. Keep getting a blockage screen. Hope it didn't charge the account.

 

Thanks Dana
