[@ziongite]

The choke was high on Rob, it ended up breaking a part of the bone around his teeth on his lower gum, basically the bone around your incisor teeth down there, it totally folded them inward into his mouth and broke that area of bone, that's why he tapped so quickly. It didn't break his jaw in half or break the thick chin bone, despite some kids running around saying that, but it broke the alveolar process bone around his front incisor teeth, it is understandable for him to panic and tap at that point.

[@lasrrrrr]

Grande VolK, you are legend. Greetings from Spain. I hope to see you here against Ilia, it would be a real spectacle!

[@andrewm3844]

What a fight, looked like Max was starting to take Ilia apart, holding him on the distance with the jabs and adding right hand straight whenever he was closing the distance. Adding to this oblique kick which was already showing its effect. Ilia on the other hand was looking for a k.o trying to land powerful strikes and was gasing out already in round 2. Whenever max would go into exchanges he looked more hurt so it was his biggest mistake after getting hit by a good right straight to not break the distance and go make some circles to recover and get back to work. Anyway congrats to Ilia but he’s getting smashed by Mahachev

[@saljewsteinbergowitz]

hahahhah no buddy, Ilia was up 2 rounds... Also, Ilia was stalking him the entire time and making reads. Max was on the back foot the entire time. Just stop coping.

[@pjshock7101]

Dumbass ilia did what we call in the game making adjustments that's why he's undefeated he can make the adjustments and win no matter what Islam gets hit clean alot ilia smokes him max was going to be at a distance obviously but ilia is not Justin he doesn't just shell up at the edge of range he will do whatever it takes to get the win and half the time the involves hunting them down with his hands and if you drop him well good luck because he's a actually started off grappling so he,d take you down and he can end a fight with a single punch and blitzes people he's always been legis the new generation is here say goodbye to favorite fighters of the past that's the game, and still 🌹

Friendly advise from a 20 plus year fan. Mix it up with Ilia, doesnt matter if you get him down or not (which i think you can) but throw several takedowns in the mix. Also i believe you really need to throw heat with him, he needs to know theres real danger in the pocket.

Ilia seems to not care about winning rounds. He looks for the shot to put you out. You would need a featherweight khabib to control him on the ground for 5 rounds, standing is definitely too dangerous. He can only be beat if you don't get caught for 5 rounds and that's a big if

[@DGM327]

Ilias going to be a tough puzzle, he's very well guarded, stays patient and definitely has the power to capitalise. Volume and getting him on the back foot is where you want him but he's too comfortable in the pocket. His head movements are slick through his whole body, same as his power full bodied through the straight lines to his fists. Dagi wrestling would be a great test whilst he and Islam are at their best, however he really should clear the few FWs first

A well timed knee could take him out when he is unloading combos but it is extremely dangerous since it opens you up and would have a low success rate.

Question: Illia is in a very bladed boxing stance. So Why doesn't anyone just leg kick him or go for a takedown? Isn't that the weakness of a bladed-boxing stance in MMA?

Because Ilia's base is greco-roman wrestling. He developed boxing after he got into UFC. he basically had all submissions before
