@@elreyderio4045 a champion who claims the other cheated but didn’t follow up with the actual commission about said claims deserves no rematch. Especially when those claims were brought up simply because he’s upset he lost. He deserves no respect. His downfall is now. Yair is coming for that belt and will succeed. Gonna add this here for the idiot/trolls Too many of these children are trolls and twist words to fit narratives. It’s pretty pathetic tbh. I’d love to see a single shred of proof against Islam. Even the commission said themselves. NOBODY CAME FORWARD TO THEM. Meaning Volk Dan hooker nobody. Nobody went to the commission and said hey Islam cheated look into him. The only reason they did it was because of all these little children following words from 2 idiots mouths. And now we got a bunch of grown men and children going around literally making themselves look stupid with trash claims that were never followed through by the people who actually claimed it. All of you idiots claiming it was a close fight don’t understand mma at all. Islam won 1,2,4 and arguably 3 as you can see cejudo broke down the fight for all of us IN OUT FACES. Islam traveled 7k miles. Jet lagged. Less hours to rehydrate bood every punch thrown (hence why everyone thinks it was close and should rewatch with the fight muted) . The list goes on. Yet for Volk he’s used to the time zone LITERALLY HAD TO BULK 10 POUNDS IN 4 AND A HALF MONTHS, was in his home country THE LIST GOES ON. VOLK WAS FED AN EASY WIN ON A WITHER ISLAM AND STILL COULDNT GET THE JOB DONE. THAT IS REALITY. For all those responding to me in the comments understand reality. 99% of you see a big fight in your recomended and hop into the comments the second it’s over to claim this and that and now that their was some controversy y’all were given the biggest excuse to act as if y’all actually watch mma. Y’all are trolls. You know nothing of mama. That’s reality. Tri I’m not talking to you directly I’m talking to all the idiots who responded to me who think I’m gonna respond to 20 diff people. They simply want someone to talk to. Because nobody loves them and they live off of attention on KZbin. ON ISLAMS WORST NIGHT VOLK COULDNT TAKE HIM OUT, REALIZE THAT PEOPLE.

it would make sense for Volk to defend against Yair, and for Islam to defend against the winner of Benny v Charles, then Islam v Volk 2, idk if time lines up tho, Volk said he wanted to fight in the next 3 months or so, and Yair wanted to wait until September for a Mexico card, and if Benny and Charles spark each other, which is likely, recovery times can be pretty long too

[@diegogch]

Yeah man, I don't think time will line up too. At least for the lightweight division something tells me an interim belt will be coming up. As for Volk v Yair, it would be cool if it was in Mexico but imo Volk should be the one calling the shots as for how soon the fight happens

[@TeeSlice]

But Volk is the champ the fight should be when he wants, if Yair wins he could do his first defence in Mexico. But yeah i think both Islam and Volk should defend their own belts at least once b4 rematching . I think Volk would prefer the immediate rematch so he can stay the same weight and not have to bulk up again

[@Yeoldelole]

100% accurate statement

[@livinlegend96]

Volk is the champ it should be when he is ready, yair is an intern, so he shouldn't really have a say in anything. If he can't make the fight on to the next.

[@sirzach]

you have a point i also think since charles and beneil fight in may whoever wins that can realistically be able to fight in october so do islam vs winner of that in october and the ufc wants what sells so i can see them waiting until september for yair and volk if those two wash their opponents make them fight in december or early 2024

Round one Jones uses his longer reach to keep Gane away. Neither does much. Gane lands a slapping kick to the side of Jones face towards end of the round. The crowd burst with insanity. Round 2 Gane feels more confident and tries to close the distance only to be caught with an oblique kick. This theme continues with Jones pinpointing Games knees, thighs and stomach throughout the round. Round three starts with a great exchange and Gane wobbles Jones momentarily before Jones takes him to the ground in devastating fashion. The crowd again erupts. Here the strangeness begins. Perhaps from being wobbled or the extra weight or just age...Jones seems to just lay on Gane and hold him in place while breathing hard for what seems an eternity. 27 seconds after the take down Jones commence to land elbows and control Gane like a 160 pound child. Gane appears helpless and is beaten badly. Round 4 starts and it's clearly on Ganes face that he wants to give up but won't allow it to overcome him. However, he can't be taken down again and now it's he who tries to keep Jones at distance. Jones appears more drained than we are used to seeing......then snappingly closes the distance with an uppercut that stuns Gane before he is again slammed to the ground in a beautiful transition from uppercut to body lock take down. Here it appears Gane has already given up as Jones effortlessly takes his back and submit him via rear naked choke. The crowd erupts and then Jones awkwardly looks DC in the eyes and quotes a Bible verse before saying he is the true double champ. DC hides his distain like the true professional he is and allows Jones to shine bright. The news breaks the next day and most KZbin videos spend more time highlighting how Jones looked winded and slower as opposed to being the new Heavyweight champ

I would like to see all rematch's for championships require the loser tro beat the 2nd highest ranked contender before getting the opportunity to fight for the belt again and the winner would fight the #1 contender. Wouldn't have to be this exact format, but something similar would be nice. Get more fighters involved for a chance at the belt...

Volk needs to the rematch immediately to keep his frame and size up. A little more weight in that cage and it may have been a different fight. Still think it looked obvious Islam had had a bad weight cut which is on him to be fair. But didn't seem to have the same pop.

I've been saying since the morning after the Islam/Volk fight, Islam should fight Dustin, Volk vs Yair and if Islam and Volk both win, then have a re-match. If either or both of them lose, I don't think the demand would be as great. In other news, I would like to see Gane beat Jones next Saturday.

Dariush already deserves next. Khabib's crew would agree. Love Volk but it's not fair to other guys in their divisions. Volk should finish up business in featherweight then commit to a proper weight move like Jon Jones
