Wow reall well said. They definetely need to spend money and make more tribute videos. It makes no sense why you have to go to private KZread channels to find any information about UFC fighters. The UFC needs to make a new series, like they did with Laura Sanko - they made a biography documentary on Laura Sanko, it's on the UFC channel. They need to do a full documentary about Justin Gaethje, Israel Adesanya, Masvidal, Colby, etc. They could double their sales by making mini-documentaries. It takes decades for a fighter to "organically" get popular, purely by accident. Literally, it took Masvidal about 10 years or more to get popular.

In his post interview he said some interesting things. I like how he called out the other guys in the division. It was not cocky but confident. As the champ has has earned the right to fight any and everybody. They have to earn it. He is basically telling them to climb the ladder like he did. Do it, get to number one, and you get your shot. He is talking about getting better and he is the champ. That will take him far. Ariel mentioned boxing throws in the towel. I've only seen it once, but it was while the ref was calling the fight. That was when Josh Thompson beat Nate Diaz. Nate's corner threw in the towel as Josh was finishing Nate. There is no shame in that. The Diaz are still widely respected. "Kill or be killed" I like Volk's concern for the Zombie. When they were talking about it, just after Ariel mentioned boxing, I thought about George Forman vs Joe Frazier. Now the zombie was done and not at death's door so it's not the same, but it sounds like it George turned to the ref after several knock downs. You can hear people in the audience yelling to stop the fight.

Dana really does not like Henry Cejudo. And it's obvious why. Henry has blatantly tried to strongarm the UFC, to manipulate them into paying him more. There's one thing that Dana hates, and it's when you try to bully him or talk bad about the UFC in the media. And I don't blame him. Henry could have negotiated, and simply asked for more money and he probably could have negotiated a big payday. Masvidal ended up with a huge contract, and he never threated "retirement" to try to strongarm the UFC into paying him more. Every person knows that Henry retired as way of gambling his career in order to make a big payday. He had hoped the UFC would want him back and would make an offer, and they never did. The only way he will come back is if he shows that he is taking his career serious and is going to fight 3 more times, and he is honest with what he wants, instead of trying to play the "retirement" game.

@@jayboi7565 He hasn’t fought in two years. Why should he be given favors without doing anything lately?

Volk is a beast man, one of the best no doubt. Soo soo dominant, reminds me of the Aldo of the WEC

Great interview! Alexander the great volcano!

Legend!

I am a Zombie fan, but Volkanovski beat him by a long mile and with class. There are clips of Volkanovski asking the question and then shaking his head as if to say "alright, it's on you." His concern and the ref's concern were warranted. Zombie would have popped up and would have kept putting his head in front of Volkanovski's punches. With punches to the head, it's the damage you don't feel that harms you the most. Memories of Ray Boom Boom Mancini's match with the Korean boxer back in the day.

he's gonnna be champ for a long time i think

Love this guy 👏 long love the great 👑

Best Champ/person ever! Love that man!

His only mistake is to defeat Max two times by inches, thats why all fans have bitter sweet taste about him. That on side, dude is amazing fighter, fight iq, adaptation true fight .. phenomenal!

Go watch that first fight again. He destroyed Max. I didn't even know who this guy was and was a huge Max fan. You're being ridiculous. The 2nd fight was razer close. The first fight was a domination.

He has climbed that mountain , I was impressed with hand speed and counter shots ..

Can't wait to see him move up and put a hurtin on some bigger guys.

Volkanovski finally being taken seriously as P4P top 5

@@FreefallSC no way has less title defenses than both izzy and usman, both izzy and usman defeated their rivals (Rob and Colby) while Volk had much closer fights and was dropped twice and he literally only beat short notice TKZ who was beat by Ortega 2 fights ago badly . Jus comparing them 3’s last fights isn’t even close in competition

@@Ooooooopsy he beat Holloway twice, he beat Ortega, Aldo, Mendes. Just the Aldo and Max wins are better wins than either of those guys have besides maybe Izzy over Whitaker and a lot of people thought he lost that one just like a lot thought Volk lost to Max the second time. Just Aldo and Holloway are better wins than either of those guys have outside of arguably Whitaker. Usman no.1 makes no sense to me. Volk also dominated Ortega and zombie in both title defenses that weren’t Max. Usman held Masvidal on the cage for 5 rounds to beat him the first time. That would be like Volk beating zombie that way except zombie has actually done way more at FW than Jorge has at WW.

Love Volk man a real martial artist

Alex is a great fighter getting better every fight

Volks in the house.yeah boi.

Emmett deserves a big fight too man. Let's not forget about him. I want to see Allen vs Emmett and Kattar vs Zabit 2. I also want Zombie to rest up good and come back to fight Shane Burgos. The boxing in that fight would be great to see in MMA.

Volk has been one of my favorites since the Mendes fight. He just has a cool style.

Great podcast

I thought zombie had a chance because of his crafty style. Volk is unbelievable

Ariel really vibes like an old grand mother trying to take care of people sometimes lmao

Volkanovski is on another level such an amazing fighter/ athlete. He is perfect for all training brands (Nike adidas and Colombia northface). Messi in ufc

Would love to see Volk vs Poirier when he moves upto lightweight. True test for volk and an amazing fight right there.
