Volk is the type of guy that gives his best interview to a KZread channel with 12k subscribers. This channel is gonna get a good bump from the champ

he is an aussie national treasure

Never heard of this channel before now but this guy is a great interviewer, he asked a ton of really good questions.

Bruh after the presser I shouted out at a pub 'lets go Mrs Volk' as your wife was leaving. Everyone in her crew had a giggle. No-one else knew royalty was in the house. Thanks Volk and Emma 🙏

Alexander "The Great" Volkanovski - a true, man's man. Wonderful interview gentlemen. Thank you very much for the amazing content Mark, you are spoiling us with some great interviews lately! Please try and keep it up without burning out because you are wonderful to listen to and the questions you ask are very introspective and refreshing to hear. Thank you again for this!

Legend! Great Pod

Great conversation 👌🏼👌🏼

No one could survive, a full fight, with islam but volk, not only survive , but make a close fight. Volk is a goat.

I am Australian also, and I am proud of both Alex and Whittaker, I think both are great representations of Australia and of being down to earth and decent guys.

Awesome episode, fantastic production. Liked and subscribed. 😎👍

Volk is an Aussie legend!!!

Some people are just next level workers and performers and the Volk is epitome of hard work and dedication to the craft.

It was a good fight between Makhachev vs Volk, but its a clear 48-47 win via 1st, 2nd and 4th rounds, even the 3rd round could be scored for Makhachev.

@@dionrinaldo9668 there was no knockdown in the 2nd round or in 3rd round, Makhachev went for a takedown that looked like a knockdown but it wasn't a knockdown if you watch it again you can see, in the 3rd round he slip as well no knockdown, effective striking is the criteria, Makhachev landed 19 strikes and Volk landed 19 strikes, but Makhachev is more accurate with his strikes and he landed 12 strike to head, while Volk landed only 8 strike to head, thats the difference, plus Makhachev also scored a takedown so its clear that he won the 2nd round.

Volkanovski you rippa!

Volk is one of my favourite fighters of all time. I remember seeing him in Vegas after beating Max for the first time and he was kind enough to stop for a photo and joke around. I wish his camp didn't make the IV accusations because it made them look salty and deep down, I don't think Volk feels that way! Or at least they could have produced some evidence instead of hearsay!

@@Morten465 you don't understand anything. First of all Islam won despite being dehydrated. You need to get over that. Second, Volk cuts the same amount to make 145 but he also needs 36 hours recovery or else he'll be dehydrated. If Volk was given 24 hours recovery only he wouldn't be able to fight at featherweight. He would lose all his fights guaranteeed. Under 24 hours recovery, Islam and Volk weighed the same inside the cage. The only difference being Volk was hydrated and Islam wasn't. But Islam still won. Volk should be embarrassed. Islam weighed same as him, dehydrated, and still kicked his ass. When you realize this, youll feel pathetic for clapping for Volk. So if they're gonna change

19 of the 24 media score cards chose islam. 3 ring side judges chose Islam. Total strikes per round favoured islam. Take downs favoured islam. Control time favoured islam. Most high level analysts picked Islam especially after watching the fight. Volk did well, but islam done so much better. Volks size was the sole reason he didn’t get submitted. Volk couldn’t do what he usually does and Islam couldn’t do what he usually does. 5th round islam was winning the round till he went for a lazy take down and go dropped. Love volk he did great, but give credit where credit is due. Islam won that fight comfortably. Anyone who would believe a RUSSIAN is gonna have any bias in his favour is out right stupid, especially fighting in Australia against an Australian. Not only Russian but a Russian Muslim lol ain’t winning a decision if it wasn’t clear he won.

​@@kylez33 sure I don't think anyone would call it comfortable. Volk deserves immense respect in the ring, and he showed why. However Islam's win was decisive. He was getting the better of Volk in nearly every aspect. I think because he didn't ragdoll Volk (for good reason) it somehow made it worth less. However, takedowns are takedowns, back control is back control and hard knees are had knees. On the feet, in the clinch, on the ground, Makhachev was doing more. He was doing this to the P4P #1. Islam needs the respect he deserves.
