The fact that he started MMA at like 22/23 and he became the best fighter in the world at some point is crazy, he is so damn good man I wish I had the work ethic and the discipline he has

Rugby is Australias version of USAs wrestling essentially. Quite good techniques and fitness that transfers over. Not to mention that lack of neck (a lot of rugby players have short necks cause of big traps or learn to tuck there neck in very far to avoid injuries and absorb a tackle) helps counter submission artists.

[@imjustsam1745]

How do you know you don't? Start, that's how it starts.

[@bentoomet8805]

I’m 23, coming off an Achilles rupture. I’ll never be anywhere close to them lol, but he’s inspired me to run some BJJ and boxing work once we get this thing back in shape.

[@uninstallexe2111]

not just the best fighter in the world.. Volk is one of the greatest of all time now, no one can deny him that

[@coolcatbobby7362]

the way volk used to be as big as he was when he was playing rugby, to not only to lose weight train mma at 24 then to become one of the greatest fighters. it’s astonishing what he’s doing with little time he’s had. he’s my favorite fighter because he embodies a true mixed martial artist. he combines everything together and puts it all in 1. his striking wrestling iq etc. he’s truly one of the greats. i try to mimic my style after him

[@cobefriend7797]

I swear guys that come down from a big weight are just built different. Like look at ‘Killa Gorrilla’ Cannonier their muscles just seem so much more compact

[@Last_Chance.]

​@@cobefriend7797their more dense

[@PrgressiveHouse]

Don't mimic, find your own style. Inspiration is good tho

[@ryansavage7199]

And if I'm not mistaken the position that he played in Rugby is a position that the bigger, heavier players usually play. Just shows this guy is a natural born winner and has an exceptional work ethic also he isn't a fighter that after becoming a champion becomes a cocky, self absorbed toolbag Now more then ever the UFC/WWE needs more champions like Alexander "The Great" Volkanovsky

[@lukepier9736]

I thought he lost the second Max fight, but in that third Max fight he showed the world that nobody in 145 can come close to his skill.

[@themonsterbaby]

Me too. That third fight made the 2nd irrelevant, lol.

[@citizeny3795]

Oh would you stop it? He won the 2nd fight fair and square, its been debunked a million times since, you Max fans are so fkn annoying.

[@MrSnakekaplan]

Bullshit that USADA woke Volk on fight night to do a urine test though, someone should have been fired for that. Imagine before your title fight, you get woke up, made to chug a water until you can piss for them, then take sleeping pills before a fight to try to overcome the situation.

[@Metalhed1300p]

​@Monsterbaby's Channel Well, it wasn't irrelevant to Max lol. It woulda been his title back even if he lost it again. He deserved it. That 3rd fight was the ultimate decider that we're in Volk's era now though. Aldo, Max, and then Volk each with their own reign. But Max did earn it back even if it was for that last time.

He is the baddest man on the planet under 175lbs, but he would still walk thru 90% of fighters middleweight and up as well. He's just a bad bad man.

[@b.28]

Love and support Volk but I don't think he can stand up against MW guys. 40lbs of weight on scale is a lot let alone the extra 5-10% they may gain. Plus the reach and height differences I doubt he do well against anyone above WW

[@lukaspeavey7712]

@@b.28 I don’t think he’d be champ or anything but I’m pretty sure he used to fight at 85 and he does spar with Izzy so he could prob take out some of them

[@bckdohbenji]

No he wouldn’t 😂😂

[@NotAfilthyCasual]

You’re on actual crack if you think he would stand a chance against Robert Whittaker, Marvin, Paulo or even Yoel. Definitely not any other ufc ranked middleweight. The second they got ahold of him it would be over. That’s why classes exist. I’m a volk fan saying this

[@landenx]

MW is too big, he would get worked by 90% of them tbh

[@Hislordshiphish]

This guy is honestly built different. To go from dominating rugby league (brutal sport) to UFC (even more brutal) and be p4p number 1 is unbelievable. Definitely one of the greats

[@sakuparkkonen2959]

[@guardian2-735]

I know mate I'm 18 and I thought it was too late for me lol

[@josepharmand6117]

There's several things you can't do to Volk: You can't break him. You can't outlast him. You can't out-gas him. As well: He's *very* hard to submit (the best couldn't do it). He's *very* hard to KO (only once 10 years ago). So that leaves a *very* narrow path to victory over Volk!

[@juanfandango6217]

And the KO was a when he was fighting a welterweight lol

Volk is the quintessential champ . Hats off to him. Major fan. Such a gentleman and champion

[@codyallen43]

He won that islam fight. The fact that he TOOK ISLAM DOWN and was actually on top throwing down bombs at the end of that fight was absolutely astounding. In my opinion he's cemented himself up there with GSP and Jon Jones as one of the all time GOATs.

[@Last_Chance.]

I'm a huge volk fan but Islam won that fight.

[@Kyle-zb7dm]

A few more for his legacy and he will be the undisputable GOAT. Will have a better resume than anyone else in MMA

[@88Vrus88]

@JONATHAN JOHNSON you know that like 90% of all mma analyst gave the fight to islam. dont get me wrong it was close but man get over it. maybe there will be a rematch one day but you can bet that volkanovski wont do it.

[@CH-se6ki]

When I see Volk in the octagon, I feel like you can see that he loves every minute of it

[@spreiik]

Volk and Aldo are neck and neck for me at FW goat, if he defends once more he has it for me. The way people were calling him a BW, and the fact that he was pounding on a “weigh bully” at light weight, tells me he’s the true pfp king, and that he’s likely the pfp greatest ever.

[@dth_272]

I got volk over aldo tbh in fw goat and mostly cuz of the conor loss i think that fights plays a huge role in it aswell

[@awanzain8243]

he won around title defence

[@trevormeredith3709]

Volk would completely steamroll a prime aldo

[@DrayDrayn]

It's crazy how every title defence Volk has had, (apart from the first one against Max) Volk has convincingly beaten every other contender to his thrown thus far. That in itself lifts the quality of his defences.

[@DamanKingBear]

Most people think Volk won

[@Abudzin]

I seriously thought he did cause I thought it was clear that round 1, 2 and 5 was his. I was dumbstruck when the judge raised Islam's hand. No disrespect for Islam but come oooon bruh

[@Breaker-of-horses-and-men]

Volk and Max are two champs that can go to a decision almost every fight they have and nobody minds that they didn’t get a finish. Sometimes a 25 minute beat down is more entertaining than a quick KO.

[@buttox]

@@isaiahgarcia163 Yeah but you could see why the perception at the time was what it was - people liked max - volk was still a relatively unknown fighter for the majority of viewers - max went on to say post fight that volk won cause his team was smart and knew how to play the system i.e making the fight sound close - popular opinion was that volk won on leg kicks alone - so people hated on volk

[@elyas4637]

I too notice how unshakable Volk's mindset was and I thought it would be broken by Dagestanis like how Conor, Dustin, Justin, Olivera etc... have. Boy I was wrong, I should have believe him the moment he escaped Ortega's guillotine. And holy fck that Round 5, he's the one on top of Islam! He does indeed have an tremendous heart, strength and mindset. He has no quit in him and I don't think someone in the 145,155, and 170 have stronger mindset than him.

[@Thor-Orion]

I’ve respected him the whole time, but the first time I rooted for him was against Islam. I love Yair’s style, though, so I’ll probably be rooting against Alex again in his next fight.
