    Islam just keeps getting better. It's so impressive. His striking is legitimately good & it's not even close to his best asset.

    Crazy how Charles has 21 submission wins and is a 3rd degree Jiu Jitsu black belt yet was submissioned by Makhachev. Volk is one of the best strikers in UFC history yet got beaten on the feet by Makhachev. Being able to beat both of them in a short span of time then knock out a living legend like Volk just shows he's levels above the rest. 13 undefeated win streak. Who needs Sambo right? When you can knock them out on the feet.

    Justin Gaethje may be the only man left in this weight class who might be able to rattle Islam enough to beat him.

    I honestly don't think that had anything to do with how he lost. It wasn't like he gassed out or anything. He got caught with a hard kick that would probably have knocked him out even with a full camp. You can't train your head to absorb hard kicks like that.

    I don't want to hear any excuses. The 12 days short notice excuse can't be used within the first round. Bisping on short notice managed to knock out Rockhold to clinch the title. Volk was perfectly fit and he trains throughout the year. A camp wasn’t gonna do anything other than increase his cardio which he didn’t need to use. He got caught and Islam executed a perfect headkick that went over his hand. Makhachev beat Oliveira (who was seen as unvincible) and Volk in a short span of time. Now he has knocked out Volk who would've been considered the GOAT if he went on to win the LW title. People can insult these Dagestani's and other Russians all they want. The Russophobia won't work, this ain't Hollywood although those Dagestani's are making a movie worth remembering.

    They don't want to hear it, but Islam already has as good of a career as Khabib did. I will gladly push the narrative that Islam could beat Khabib, and that a full camp Volk could have beaten Khabib as well. Khabib is literally first-generation Islam. Coach Khabib is goated, though. Also, that shara bullet guy still has some work to do. 😂
