Alexander Volkanovski Is The #1 Pound For Pound Fighter In The World - Steve-O's Wild Ride

[@natemarx4999]

There was so much controversy over Islam or Volk deserving PfP #1 ranking only for Jon Jones to pass both of them in less than 2 minutes.

[@FreedomRenegades]

this is a damn good point

It felt so wrong not hearing a crowd going nuts when Volkanovski gets introduced.

the most humble guy around ol volks absolute champion of a bloke, for those interested he played for warilla gorillas (my local team) back when he played rugby league

[@Trevor1221]

Alexander Volkanovski, after your loss, there's more respect for you now than there ever has been. Your top 3 all time for me.

[@joeykillzcuntzzz]

He is the best of all time for sure

[@TMeek94]

Jones, Silva, gsp Which one are you replacing for volk?

[@joeykillzcuntzzz]

[@luislopez6315]

Volk is legit the man and have been becoming more and more of a fan, he seems like a really good genuine person and over nice guy and after that Islam fight showed his is one of the best fighters out there!

[@simonvanwely1912]

Me too... I wanted to hate him because I love Max. I went back and watched those fights-saw through my bias. Love Volk, always class.

Definition of a savage inside the cage, gentleman outside. He is a prime example of confidence without cockiness

[@dalelane1948]

The Number #1 pound for pound champion! Good dad, good fighter and just a good bloke.

[@真是老二次元了]

Hope they make the rematch when each one of them get 1-2 fights. What’s interesting is how they make adjustments. Glad they won’t do the rematch immediately. The divisions need to move forward and who knows if the winner of Henry and Aljo won’t campaign for Volk 😅

[@JamesDeCastro]

Great Interview! Volk no doubt is one of my favorite fighters. Great Questions in this, it just felt super authentic

[@BenLynd-w3t]

I love the fact that the video has been set out in sections to jump to. Great for those of us who don't have the whole hour to listen

[@asdasd-si4sr]

I was also live at Volk v. Ortega, which was fight of the year. Cannot wait for this weekend and your interview after.

[@getintheflask]

That Aussie cafe lifestyle suits you Steve-o with your latte just chillin

[@GamingAtWork]

P4P King! So hyped for this Podcast.

[@BaysingersDiscGolfChannel]

Well that ended abruptly. I wasn't ready for that. I was hoping Steve-O would conform or deny the toilet issue in the outro

[@closinginonclosure]

47:34 This is interesting. He's asked about an adrenaline dump and he said he doesn't experience any of that or any nerves. It's a little confusing though because just minutes before while taking about fighting with an injured leg, he said he just decided to "wait for the adrenaline to kick in" to ease the pain going into the fight. Maybe he used to get nerves and doesn't anymore.

[@bradleyennis3730]

I assume he means there's a difference between having adrenaline from the jump and losing it vs it randomly kicking in.

[@nathanwaibel454]

#2 in the charts. #1 in our hearts..

[@MadLadCheese101]

Yeah dude, i was going to ask volk on Wednesday night at your show if you pair had done or were going to do a podcast. Its like some minds have been read seeing this video

[@aaronhow2568]

[@DesktopBodybuilding]

VOLK!!!!! Whoop Whoop 🇦🇺 Our man!

[@SB-SB]

I'm there with you Steve-O, prelims are where the action is at. They are usually fighters who have a small name and are on a big PPV, of course they come out with something to prove. That's the way I see it. Prelims has more action than the main card 80% of the time.

[@thisarfingai]

100% mate - Early prelims, Prelims, Main Card - watch the lot or you're a bitch-ass casual. :)

I know you've done jon jones already before but an updated episode with him after becoming heavyweight champ and the new #1 P4P king 🤴 would be a fire episode, also would love to see Nate diaz,Leon Rocky edwards, suger Sean, Francis after his departure from UFC, McGregor .derrick lewis is hilarious he would be another great guest

If the criteria goes off damage and significant strikes first then if you are on bottom but landing strikes the whole time shouldn't that count more?

I’m pretty sure Steve-O should have a mullet. I’m watching Forever Jackass and the bee scene he leans back and for a split second I swore he had a mullet…he didn’t but it really seemed ideal, and that’s all. I felt overly compelled to share that I believe Steve-O needs a mullet. An unironic mullet, just a pure expression of plain old mulletry.

[@bradleyholdom9677]

Out of every nationality I've ever met here in the US, Australians are always the toughest and smartest of the lot. They even have a version of football that makes the NFL look like a bunch of weenies. Any fellow Americans here who love sports, I suggest checking out AFL (Australian Football League). They put our NFL players too shame!

I can think of another Macedonian who was Hellenized (of Greek upbringing and culture) with that same first name. He was also quite remarkable and pretty much undefeatable. And being an Aussie doesn't hurt, either.

Your advertisments are very funny, and I apreciate you dont do them in front of the gest

Quick note - Khabib called Volk out essentially, but was not in the corner - I believe he wanted to spend more time with his family - doubt we can comprehend the demand on time he had coaching - never home whatsover.

Can’t believe no-one is saying how slow jones looked and out of shape.. i think stipe flatlines him early.. he got that submission credit to him but then he sounded fake on the mic too

Who cares about an IV, if you’re cutting that much weight and dehydrating yourself who cares how you rehydrate yourself. I want fighters to be properly hydrated and in the proper mindset to make the fight as good as possible.

Volk is the only one who prepared and found out how to deal with the Dagestan style……. Heavy powerlifting moves combined with wrestling and grappling …. Only jon jones does this as well….
