What's not to like about Volk? This guy is so confident yet doesn't sound arrogant. He carries himself really well. And Islam is such a laid back guy and so relaxed that if you didn't know him, you can't even imagine that this guy is such a killer in the cage. I like both. May the best man win.

Your right and not really understanding the other talk shit to sell ppv. Love it or hate it I'll bet you bought those fights. Look at any main events not involved with cocky shit talkers and there not even top 20 for sure and I'll even go to top 25. There all in UFC to make money no matter what they try to say. If they weren't in it for cash then, they would just fight in those backyard beef fights. Again let's not pretend Khabib never talked shit in his career. Let's not forget he called out Conor McGregor before Conor even mentioned him at all. Remember that give me your chicken lame shit for one, then he and his goons surround Artem with his Agent and himself like he was gonna try fighting there whole crew. I mean yeah these 2 fighters don't talk shit much if any, they are both great fighters none the less but I'm 100% certain they don't sell ppv buys anywhere close to the guys that talk. You don't have to like the talking shit type UFC fighters but bottom line is the UFC is about how much money they make and it's a business in the end and that's how business owners run it and that's facts.

Yes, volk will be wiped out. And Yes, They will also be surprised when their evil cross,tattoos, drinking whiskey and eating porks etc. unlawful evil deeds will be wiped out by Jesus Christ (Eesa Messiah) in his second coming to the earth to re-establish the judgement of the ALLAH. Yes, Easa Messiah (Alsihissalam) will be sent again by Almighty ALLAH to kill the antichrist, the wine pig lover Left-eyed Egyptian pyramid Babylonian dajjal god of all the wine pig lovers pagans and polytheists who use human idols by inventing rituals of their own desires, whims, wishes to evade the commandments and the final revelation (Al-Quran, Shari'a Laws) revealed and prescribed of their own creator Almighty ALLAH. Roman,Greek,Hindu,christian Buddhist etc. Polytheists who always desire god in a human form will be deceived by the antichrist. Because they are continuously neglecting the commandments (guidance) of their own creator. And the Zionists kabbalah Jews will be the main followers of the right eye blind Left-eyed Egyptian pyramid babelonian God dajjal (antichrist), because they were cursed for rejecting the Eesa Messiah and the final prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) of Bible although there's still enough evedence in their own bible to accept the true and Final Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) of Bible. Any truthful person will easily accept Prophet Muhammad, if he/she truthfully analyze the Duetornomy 18:18-22 and Isaiah 42 full chapters (1-25). After going through all these proofs, only the liars reject the true Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) of Bible. Because from the Gospel of John 1:19-21 we can clearly see that the Jews were waiting for the fulfillment of three distinct prophecies. The first was the coming of the Christ. The second was the coming of the Elijah. The Third was the coming of the Prophet (Muhammad, an Arabian messenger mentioned in Duetornomy 18:15-22 to fulfill the prophecies of Isaiah 42 (Bible). 📖 But I fear that somehow your pure and undivided devotion to Christ will be corrupted, just as Eve was deceived by the cunning ways of the serpent. (Bible 2 Corinthians 11:3) Aramaic Bible (Jesus clearly said to his lovers) 📖 Luke 6:46 “Why are you calling me, 'My Lord, my Lord'', and you are not doing whatever I say? see 2 Corinthians 11:3, here bible says that just like the devil deceived Eve to break the Law of God, the same way the false Messiahs/prophets will deceive the christians to neglect the commandments of the God of Jesus. Yes, Bible clearly says that when Jesus returns, Jesus will destroy all the disbelievers/atheists/blind idols worshipers without guiding them to his True God. "when those people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly". [📖 1 Thessalonians 5:1-3, 📖 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10]. Eternally forsaken by God and condemned to hell - the exact opposite of Isaiah 42 which talks of the idol worshippers being “guided” and “not forsaken”! (📖 Isaiah 42:16) Isaiah 42 fits perfectly to prophet Muhammad. It states the coming of a special person (Prophet Muhammad) who will be sent to battle idol worshippers, defeat them and turn their darkness into light - the worship of God Which is the exact opposite of the second coming of Jesus to destroy the disbelievers on earth without guiding them. Moreover Matthew states that when Jesus returns “all the peoples of the earth will mourn” [📖 Matthew 24:30]. Yet the general theme that runs throughout Isaiah 42 is the rejoicing and singing of God’s praises by the people of earth because they have been guided away from the darkness of idolatry into the light of the worship of God:…In his teaching (Shariah Law) the islands will put their hope. [📖 Isaiah 42:4] Isaiah 42:1-13 speaks of the beloved of GOD. His elect and messenger who will bring down a law to be awaited in the isles and who “shall not fail not be discouraged till he have set judgment on earth 🌍. Isaiah 42:4” More explicitly, prophesies Isaiah “for with stammering lips, and another tongue, will he speak to this people” (Isaiah 28:11). In Bible Isaiah ties between the messenger Muhammad (ﷺ) connected with Medina, land of Ke’dar (2nd son of Ishmael) and a new song (a scripture in a new language) to be sang (Al-Quran) unto the LORD (Isaiah 42:10-11). Isaiah 42:6 "I, the LORD, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles." Gentiles mean non Jews/Christian. Here Isaiah emphasizes the universal mission of the coming person The righteous mission of establishing justice on earth will require special help from GOD, which is conveyed by the figurative words “And will hold Your hand”. Once “GOD holds the hand of anyone”, it is impossible to defeat that person. GOD uses that person as an instrument to wipe out evil and manifest His judgement on evil doers. New American Standard Bible 📖 Isaiah 42:1 ► “Behold, My Servant (Abd - ullah), whom I uphold; My chosen one (Mustafa) in whom My soul delights (Habibullah). I (God) have put My Spirit upon Him; He (Prophet Muhammad ﷺ) will bring forth justice (God's judgement) to the nations. (Throughout the world 🌍).

Most hyped fight for 2023 so far Father Plan vs UFC's most skilled fighter I wanna see how Islam deals with someone as skilled as Volkanovski

[@tupacwallace3113]

I can tell you exactly how he deals with him. Volkanovski is bulking which means his striking will be much slower, and his cardio will be worse. Islam will either catch one of his leg kicks and put him on his back or Islam will hold him against the cage to tire him out and then take him down. This is the worst matchup volk. This is the biggest mistake of his career. A stand up fighter vs an elite grappler almost always ends up bad for the striker. I got Islam by submission round 1

[@madextreme2682]

@@tupacwallace3113 I kinda disagree with Volk having worse speed and cardio...I think he's smart with his bulk he isn't dirty bulking the man is still shredded his camp always push him to the absolute limit ...I also agree with you on Alex fighting for 155 lbs belt is a bad move cuz if he won he'll hold up 2 divisions and if he lost some of his reputation will go down...Double champ is the worst thing to happen to a division it may help a fighter's legacy but it kills the divisions.

[@tupacwallace3113]

@@madextreme2682 I just don't see one advantage volkanovski has in this fight. He's smaller, shorter, barely a grappler against an elite grappler, and he's bulking.

[@madextreme2682]

@@tupacwallace3113 Volkanovski does have the reach advantage and probably speed , I don't want to speculate I'm analyzing it stylistically, Volkanovski's footwork and speed would be his main weapons alongside that incredible fight iq but even with all of that Islam's the nightmare matchup for Volk , And you made a great point with Oliveira being a harder matchup for Islam than Volk because Oliveira is statistically the most dangerous fighter in UFC.

[@MrShabbaaaa]

Nah Volk is just confident, and you should watch more of him, you'll see he's putting in the work and that's where his confidence comes from. I still think Islam wins it though, but with the work and mindset Volk is displaying it's hard not to believe he has a good chance, watch some of his more recent clips. And it's not about being scared, you're using the incorrect terminology, it's about being pragmatic. Being humble enough to objectively see where you are weaker than your opponent and where your opponent is stronger than you, and then working to close that gap. That's the work Volk is putting in.

[@CMLoveLust]

Volk knows something we don’t ☝🏽 mark my words: he’s gonna find a way to win

[@WhitePeopleAreAnnoying]

He’s confident. What are u talking about 🤡

[@MMA-P4P]

volk is a great champ, but get ready that neck sr to be submitted, cuz as you know: ''god army doesn't lose ''

[@johnalexander3629]

I think that you have a major problem with striking and if it was going to be striking only you definitely lose. You are very good wrestler but I find that you are condescending too much and it borders on lack of respect. If you lose this you will be not only humbled but you will be humiliated. Alexander is going to be celebrated win, lose or draw.

Muslim UFC fans thinking the Bathtub Braddas are totally untouchable because they have the power of Allah or some stupid shit never ceases to be entertaining.

[@odiseaskiriakis5314]

What people dont understand is, when you gain weight you have the advantage. Also a significally shorter guy on your weight means a lot more horse power on the close hits. Islam is a great grampler so he needs close distance for easier win, thats also the same that volk needs a chance for a good close hit that would rock islam. I believe is a 50/50. Who ever points a sure winner is blindfolded fan...

Charles stand up is much better than Volks idk how he thinks he has a advantage there. Islam smoked Charles even in the standup department

[@ZigliY]

you must be trolling

[@user-nv2wt4hi8t]

Islam didn't smoke him, aside from the knockdown. Oliveira was fairly competitive on the feet if you watch the exchanges, especially the knee exchanges in the clinches.

[@shuuushkiddo]

@@user-nv2wt4hi8t the knees would do more damage against oliveira than makhachev since when he goes for the knees he’ll exert much power and be balanced on only 1 foot which gave Islam the perfect opportunities to do the judo throws hes so good at and get Charles down

[@shuuushkiddo]

@@ZigliY you mustn’t have watched the fight

[@stuff12346]

Gotta disagree. I think Charles has more versatility in what he throws and more likely to land a finishing shot bc of how he fights but that's where it ends. Volks movement, IQ, and defense on the feet is a lot more layered. If someone gets decked and falls to the ground 4 fights in a row from 4 different opponents, I dont see how you could say their striking is better

[@jaybirdful]

Volk is a nightmare matchup for Makachev. He’s a low center of gravity that’s pure muscle. Islam might be upset badly

Volk said many times to mark his words, let us mark them @11:24 . He isn't getting up under Islam man. & If Ortega can back him up on the feet and do some damage, Islam could piece him up easily. And every leg kick volk throws, Islam will catch that shit and send a laser left hand down the center and sit volk down. Volk will not get up from there. Lol mark those words
